i try to remember that there are people behind the words that are posted. so
many times, i form opinions and try to keep them to myself because i think
they might be hurtful to other persons on the list and on a good day, but not
every day, i think it's better to suppress my need to express my opinions
under neath the feelings of other people. i think that's driven from a sense
of compassion which i think is given more freely from god than viciousness.
it's easy to say...george bush is a mother f*cker...or a ...fucking
idiot...or a ..ignorant, foolish idiot...or a....mediocre moron reflecting
the mediocre qualities of his voters...etc. it's a lot harder to look the
other way and hold in your feelings to respect other people than to reduce
them to brittle little sentences.
jan, which would you prefer i think of you as...jan the mysterious woman from
i think..the west coast...who maybe has something to do with
education..k12??? who has an edgy quality that's interesting..who probably
can't stand the majority of my wimpy posts...who said she's not getting any
sex......yea..this jan is someone i want read.
or should i just think of you as some brittle little sentence who thinks
george bush is a mother fucker. in that case, you're a jan i don't want to
ever read.
but the thing is, you're not as viscious as you'd like to be.
