What is important ?

Recently a member of CS has passed away...It got me thinking...how far will you go to prove your point...insist that you are right?...have we missed the point?...does it really matter in the end...

arrrrr, yes and nope .....wave
I'm so guided by the rule that Life is too short my dear friend. So judge no one but understand more is my policy. Live and let live and in doing so, please be kind, humble, and generous.

I love you my friend.
I found a T shirt today ...and it says heaps ...

In my line of work...see people/patients face some devastating news...this recent death has made me think...how short life is...and what is important...family and friends...of course I would have to include my precious pet!! but seriously...what do we gain being so mean spirited?...sometimes death makes us better people...strange thought but somehow true!wine
wow very sorry to hear that he will be missed truely will be missed
Sadly my friend our unique and individual genetics are responsible for whoand how we conduct our life. But that's why learning should be a tool to allow uz to learn so we can change for the better. Yes yo choose to be meanspirited is absolutely hurting.

Let's pray for a better world.

Love you my friend
Hi Lou,
Of course it doesnt matter! and nothing happening online can be anyhow compared to real life ups and downs, foolish will be the one who gets easily upset with online battles and provocation. Nothing bad should be brought out and lived over, only possitive emotions should be gained.
Rarely does death make anyone a better person, what you see is just paying respect or so called formal face, once couple of weaks passes everyone will keep going their own way.
Let me ask guys, who's passed away? havent been here for a while, missing out....confused
daytona dude ...I think wave
aish
Daytona dude passed...he was very sick and mentioned it on his blog...we can all learn from his experience...that is the point I am making...he had a different perspective...well considering his diagnosis...but none the less his words will be remembered!
Yes, Daytona seemed to be a pretty nice man.

You are absolutely right in bringing that point up. I will argue for my rights when someone is trying to quash me because they don't agree with me, but I will not argue about faith and politics. I believe in God and I vote for who I want to vote for!
very sorry to hear thatsad flower wasnt closely aquainted with him, but his name sounds very familiar.
RIP
Sorry my phones messing up I think it put the same thing twice my apologies friend
My friend I'm not familiar with him, but death is an account we have no control. It will come but for us who are still here passed on, we should use it as a way to look at things in a very positive direction.

Insisting on our right can be a grueling encounter but at who's expense and who's gain? Deliberately hurting others are, like you said, eorks o mean spirited people that, if I can, should avoid.

We can't change them, but definitely have the choice to avoid them and in some laws, we do have protection for such an encroachment.

But if only we can learn for the better, it'd belvedere a perfect world.

Thanks my friend for a timely thought provoking blog.
leah
He was here for a short time but he had a sense of humour and I really thought he had accepted his fate...he was a good person to learn from...

At the end of the day...no matter what politics or religion...a friend died...we could learn from that...live and let live!!
still
The reason I posted this blog is to (hope)give everyone perspective...on line or in real time...we need friends...and petty arguments escalated, to be right is so underated...what is important at the end of the day?...
scold Hello Loulou! And I also understand, what you are saying.
@Loulou..... I am sorry to hear of the loss of this member

You are so right, I've had my share of disagreements over foolish things that really are not important just to try to prove something.

Your blog really inspired me not to be so concerned with the little things that will eventually disappear!!

If I had three months to live...I would be travelling...not a care in this world...in the end does it really matter...to be right?...seems so petty...

scold Loulou: Yes! He was a nice respectful men/person, here at cs. USA.
I am really sorry that he did not have longer to live...but will rememer him for his wit...
Hi sweety Loulou...
Very good question dear. Maybe all should be back to each person purpose join the blog. Yes, there is no use to insist and try to prove that we are right... This's happened last time which only like fighing...

I join the blog, to have many friends, to meet great peoples coming from all over the world. And learn English considering my English is so poor with limited vocabulary.

So, lets make love, dont fight...
heart wings peace teddybear
In the end no comment, no action, no point would matter to the person gone, only those of us left behind to wonder. It's happening right now.
If I knew my end was near, I would hijack a yacht for the slowest trip to nowhere.

Lets all think why we joined CS...to make friends...nothing else matters!!...thanks for your comments!wine
mr

The best thing in life is to be remembered...I will remember...
Yes loulou when something like that happens to a person well known and respected on here it pulls one up short.
Makes a complete morckery of the silly squabbles on here.
At least they could stand still for one day in respect.hug
Hi Loulou,,youre totally right,it really is pointless and a waste of energy getting tied up in silly squabbles on here,,,life really is too short,,i remember Daytona commenting on a blog a few months ago,,cant remember what the blog was but daytonadude actually wrote something very similar to what you have wrote.. Daytona was a nice fella and extremely courageous....He was popular on c.s and will be sadly missed...nice blog..sad flower sad flower sad flower
Hello LouLou
I suppose to some it all depends on how wrong they think the other point is.

But I agree, you can always ignore and not read or comment on what you consider blogs of questionable and sound Purpose, to your way of thinking..
how far will you go to prove your point...insist that you are right?

Interesting question ,and the answer is ,I don`t know ...
Sorry I could not respond until now for the other comments...computers crash when you least expect it...

Yes, squabbles are just that squabbles...it is not important in the scheme of things...sometimes we get reminded once in awhile...
twazz
It is a sad occasion when someone dies...we can learn from this and try to be more tolerant...
