I look at it this way, It took many years and womens voices to be heard and their fighting to get their right to vote!

There are some countries where it still is illegal for women to vote! Us women have finally won this important right to vote and should go and do it, wheather by mail, voting early or on voting day,  just do it!

GO VOTE, IT MATTERS!

@hsawaknow  Did you mean to be posting in the other thread with the very similar title which is about voting?

@jubilant....maybe I am just stupid, but I have no clue what you are talking about. @dooBdoo is one of the kindest, most caring, and intelligent posters on these boards. I don't respond with comments to most posts on these boards anymore due to all the craziness. I mostly just give hearts or pass by the threads. I apologize if I sound offending in any way or am just not understanding the meaning behind your last post.

            My dear friend, @catwhisperer, thank you for such a lovely post.   You always touch my heart and I feel it's a gift when you decide to join us.❤️  

            @jubilant, also someone dear to me, was referring to wisdom her beloved father passed along to her, and she passed along to us quite a while ago.   I've quoted it several times, always giving her credit with a shout-out, so it's a bit of an "eye-wink" between us now.😉

            She can explain it better than I, but it's advice about being careful who knows your vulnerabilities because they might use them to try and hurt you.

            "They can't get your goat if you don't let them see where you tie it."😉   

            Thank you, again, for stepping up for me, Catwhisperer.   You have no idea how much you just made my day...  my week...  my month! and how much I appreciate you.  Please take good and gentle care of yourself.❤️

Please know that I would never say anything against, dooBdoo.  She is one of the nicest people here and I think an awful lot of her.  It is a "little wink" between us like she said.  I can see how you took it like you did.  I didn't word it very well.  I'm sorry.

I have told the story of my dad.  He said a lot of one-liners to we kids and I remember them so well.  I used to come home crying because someone had bullied me or said something bad. I was "the sensitive child of the family". He would tell me, "Jubilant, your trouble is you let them see where you tie your goat"....  then he explained to me that once you do that they would continue to try to get a rise out of me".  His little sayings stay with me.  He was a great dad. He passed away at 89 about a year ago but I have shared this one often here when this subject comes up.  dooBdoo expressed that she liked it.  Another person I remember liked it was, Raven.  I wonder whatever happened to her?  I liked her. Once again, I wished I would have worded it differently.  

Sorry, dooBdoo....my heart was in the right spot...my head wasn't thinking.   Bedtime!!!!!!

@jubilantand that just proves the point that most of the so called attacks are just misunderstandings.If we took the time to question before we get so upset we might find that there was nothing bad intend3d.Nice of you to explain for us.Have a good sleep.See you on the morning.

             Nothing to apologize for, @jubilant.  All is well.  I know your good heart, and also @catwhisperer‘s good heart.❤️  Thank you for the additional details, said better than I could.

             And thank you for the kind words.   I feel the same about you.   Sweet dreams.❤️

 Judging and making personal attacks on people because they have a differing opinion from yours shouldn't be allowed on these boards or anywhere else.  If there was more acceptance, this world would be a better place.

I agree.  There are always some who think their opinion is the only correct one.  These are often the ones who report posters....a difference of opinion is not bashing.  I learned in kindergarten that people have different views and that it's ok.  We don't have to agree but we need to be nice.

Amen to this. People need to mind their own houses and stop trying to tell others how to think, speak etc. An opinion is just that. We do not all have to agree but accept each other's opinion as their own. Acceptance is the main word. Stop judging others.
