As far as people being positive or negative, I try to be understanding of those who seem negative. Being negative in return won't make them positive, it will just make them more negative. Depression aften comes with advanced age.

I for one admire the Morse family and what they have accomplished. But it doesn't mean I have to like every aspect of what goes on in The Villages. As long as I'm alive and able to think for myself, I will no doubt have my own opinions, likes and dislikes.

I too have posted on quite a number of boards and have found TOTV people to be a lot more open-minded and sincere than any other place on the Internet. I know very little about the Morses and do not resent their success at all. In terms of the Villages, many people have put their faith in this growing community. Even though I am a Democrat in what is predominantly a Republican community, people have treated me with the respect one would expect when working with the credo "do under other as they have done onto you." That is more than just a Christian adage, it seems to be a humanitarian one as well.
