If we are a family, then don't you think we need to accept each other for the person that we are? We are all different unique individuals with different needs. Sometimes those needs get filled in different ways that may not be pleasing to one but may make a world of difference to that person. Why can't we be more tolerant and patient towards everybody on this site and instead of holding grudges and getting upset think about the needs of others. Trust me you will be a lot happier person in the end. You gain no joy from being upset or angry but you gain joy and sometimes a whole lot more by giving! Smile

Catherine, I'm not sure if your post is addressed to me, but I can assure you I have no reason to hold a grudge against anyone here. Why would I? Wolf was taken to task by Ron about causing offence, and I merely pointed out to Ron that he has been guilty of the same thing, only more so. I am a very happy person, Catherine and find joy in every day.

My post is not directed at any one individual!

I do not want to get in the middle of the problem, I just hate to see everybody behave like this! I have no judgements at all.

Just trying to spread the love!! Kiss

I just think that it's so easy to misinterpret what some one means when you can't see that person. Body language, facial expressions, and tone of voice play such a big part in our communications, usually, that when they are missing it's hard to know what was intended by a certain remark.

However, your point is well take Cathy. When I read something that seems in anyway confrontational, I just shrug and think, I'll bet that person has no idea how that looks to those reading it, and then let it go.

Having said that, I am sure there are things I have written that probably put someones hackles up (LOL!!!), but I can assure you that I would NEVER intentionally do or say anything to upset a single member of my beloved POE family.  I like to think that everyone here feels the same way.
