Sadness   Author:  26303  Category:(Discussion) Created:(7/3/2008 11:11:00 PM) This post has been Viewed (230 times) It fills my heart with sadness the amount of hate that is spewed forth from people.  I try to live my life as a good person, yes who occasionally gets annoyed with others.  I can get really angry with some peoples' thoughts/ideas/actions, but never would I resort to belittling them in anyway.  Never would I start name calling, cos to me, that's a cop out.  My own hubby will resort to name calling when in an arguement with me, but I won't be dragged into it.  So many people do it, rather than argue the point, they attack the person.  That's not an arguement, that's just disrespectful.  I've noticed a lot of young people doing this, and I am wondering why?  Do unto others that they unto you.  Is that the saying? Something like that anyway, and that's how I live my life. Treat others the way you want to be treated.  For me, that is with respect.  If you disagree with my opinion, well okay, I will still try to get my point across, but I will also listen.  I guess with age comes maturity, but I wouldn't do it vey often when I was younger, I just wasn't allowed to anyway.  Now I'm not saying I'm a saint and have never done it, of course I have.  But the feelings of absolute guilt and shame afterwards have taught me not to say these things.  The times I do it, I always apologise immediately.  Maybe cos I can see pain on their faces.  Perhaps that is why over the net, people feel that they can insult others, they don't see the pain they cause? Well this is just how I'm feeling at the moment.  Happy 4th to those who celebrate!
