Or people who post fake sad stories.......cue sad music.........hugs hugs kiss kiss.......Kiss<<{#emotions_dlg.wub}

And then there are those whose stories are sadder than the last one. If someone has 8 "episodes", the next one will have 10 "episodes".

It makes for good reading tho, on a rainy day....{#emotions_dlg.rolleyes}

Lol! True.

I agree with the quote. Know ourselves. Be kind and empathetic with others, no need to understand anyone else's life choices not only because their path isn't ours but because what is Is. The past can't be modified.

I think we should all be aware that there is a REAL person behind the post.

If one is unkind, you can actually hurt someone.

I think some people don't take that into consideration.

I think you get very little understanding here and in general. No one really wants to get involved that closely, where they would understand. Takes too much effort. We want one click answers to questions. And we all want validation to the extent that we consider only what we are looking for, showing callous disregard for all the rest of the potential incoming.

I didn't stay on the too worn path. I created my singular journey, into the tall grasses adorned with sparkling specks of glass

Some people take this place way too seriously and give it too much power. It's an outlet, a fun place to hang out for a little while where we're all anonymous. Close the computer and walk away. It is what it is.

Or you could say everyone is fighting a battle, so be kind. Because we all are. Its just some don't talk about it or admit it, and they convey it in other ways.

I agree with you. There are so many things we cannot post and probably should not on a public forum. No one's life here is perfect. There was a subject on here that I could feel the woman's pain because it is something I have experienced many times. I did not contribute because to do so on a public forum might have put someone I know out there and I knew that person would not like it should they ever find out. The first part of this quote I agree with...not so sure about the 2nd part {#emotions_dlg.mellow}.
