    I'm not sure how cats got work into this thread but I love them too! And dogs.

    And I even like some people who dislike cats. You know who you are! :lol:

    Forthrightness (a subset of truthfulness, a subset of truth).
    In general, are people who and what they say they are?
    Are you who and what you say you are?
    Yes I think we all are, well unless a person is devious. I like to hope there're few
    of those but of course the internet allows for much deceiving if one is inclined.
    I have a hard time understanding that type of dishonesty, what's the gain?
    I guess to feel better about yourself. But at the end of the day you are still yourself :?

    For me personally I am different with different people because the interaction
    is different. Each interaction is personal, action reaction. But basically I am the same person.
    Same values, morals, expectations, likes, dislikes, motives ... etc.
    I think this true of others.

    Some people make me uncomfortable, some I form a feeling about that can hinder
    my reaching out. Voices I can react negatively to. It's a form of hypersensitivity.
    Since I was small a strong attraction and distraction to voices. Our voice our spirit,
    it can reach deeply to my core. I think why Eddie is always with me.

    I work in an office off the main and all I have is the interaction of voices out front.
    No body language to throw me off. Voices are incredibly telling of each person,
    and of the interaction. When it's your loved ones well it can be unsettling even.

    I often think if we could hear each other on the forum, misunderstandings would be far less,
    my small gentle voice would bring a much different reaction most likely.
    I know this the case in my life.
    I know if I could hear others the connection would be far better....
    maybe someday hot dog!

    How can someone dislike an animal that hides and buries its own poop?
