To our own selves be true....

.....or something like that. Let's face it folks, doesn't exactly seem like the general level of civility world wide is on the rapid increase. Many of us are quick to anger at the behaviors of others. Think about the many irritating examples. The driving of others. Friends' forgetfulness. The adage---"one always hurts the one one loves". Most interactions with teenage miscreants. My own blogs. People who don't use full sentences. And so on. Wish I had learned the following solid truth decades ago. If I really think about it honestly, almost every annoyng behavior I experience with other humans is something I've myself done to others----often more than once. OK. Got the helmet and flack vest on, so bombs away. Aa

If we can't be ourselves then what's the point...even if I don't fully understand or connect with someone, doesn't mean I wish they were different. I'm glad for people's differences and quirks and variation in thoughts and views...people interest me in general...all walks of life and each one has something valuable to offer and to learn from. I won't be throwing any grebsdes at you, but that's not me or how I work anyway lol

Nice blog..
The human in me allows me to portray aggression, love, pain, bravery, fear and alot more emotions unmentioned...
Therefore I'm not worried about being perfect I'm more concerned with the who, why, when and where these emotions surface and whom they might affect.

Didn't know you were familiar with Jimmy Cliff songs..."The rebel in Me," by Jimmy Cliff would do my comment much justice.
