No, this is not a thread about the Narcissist in Chief (although it well could be, as he is a prime example of overblown hate and narcissism). No, I'm calling out everyone who derides, chastises, or berates others without first making an attempt at using kindness and thoughtful instruction first. And I'm calling myself out on this as much or more than anyone. I know sometimes I've come across as a know-it-all. Well, I may been around the block a heck of a lot of times and they say when people get old it is too late for them to change, but I'm still trying to learn and will take any well intentioned help I can get that way. And I hope we all keep trying to do better. It seems to me the place to start with that is with kindness. I'll try to be more kind in my responses. I am sorry for the times I have been an asshole here- and I have been. There is too much hate and self-righteous behavior in the world and we can all do better. I will try and I hope others will as well.

You have been one of the best here to teach me how to see from differing perspectives, Cincy. I am grateful for that.

Understood. We all do, sometimes, Cincy. Hopefully we're all here to learn.

I made a mistake that i had no idea was even a mistake . I wrote literally and because i don't use media or the internet i just couldnt know that there was another meaning and if anyone would have said hey thats not what you think it is. I am the first to be offended.
People can be angered or shocked but i do in general think im kind and true . The thought ive made a mistake i cant of known was, just goes to show. Not everyone reads facebook or instagram or whatever. And often a kind word can help to see or learn.
I guess though everyone is angry and sad about all that is happening in the world. Life is short. Very short. 2 friends under 40 gone in my life this is reality and it hurts .
Its really all i meant to portray but i know how it goes on here. Ive seen it happen to a couple of friends.
Im sad about it but i cant do anything but know i care about everyone .
