I hate when people hurt each other ONLY because they each passionately believe a certain thing. We can't all agree and we can't get hurt or mad if someone doesn't agree with us. We are the sum total of all of the things that have happened to us over time. We all can't have had the same experiences.


I am writing this to YOU and need to take my own advice.


Unfortunately or fortunately we are all humans with very deep feelings and sensitive hearts.


I just can't resist to add my two cents when things get political and sometimes I get all mad. BUT I have few redeeming features and one of them is that I don't stay mad long and am almost always sorry and ashamed I said something in the heat of the moment that probably hurt someone or made them mad.


I have had my mind changed on this forum over time with diplomatic people and excellent arguments. So there is hope for the most stubborn...like me.
I know and you are so wise. I find sincerity as a wonderful thing yet I have such a problem with mean spirited sarcasm. I have already started a new thread with the utmost sincerity. I am going to ignore sarcasm and look for the good on every post. Read my link in the thread and I feel it us right up your alley. I too have changed my opinions on issues through conversation on this site, but my mind closes to Shakespeare style of writing when it is laced with sarcasm and insults. Have a blessed day Gracie.
