At times we see someone is hurting and tells us. Some we lift up, others we ridicule. Can we do bett

Some of us are more sensitive than others.
I am myself am sensitive and yes do recognize that those lassing out are most likely the ones that need help.
When your down, you don't see things the same way.
So many things come into play. Home life, work, etc.
Steve never complained about a thing on this forum.
Was just being an overal nice guy.

I hear you! I am sorry you did not get to know Steve. I am sure you would have liked him. He was always nice to everyone, cheerfull and upbeat.
Even I, never realized how lonely he really felt and disconnected.
He wanted to make more friends. Him finally telling how he felt, yes it even threw me for a loop, as nobody would have been able to tell by his actions.
This is why I started this thread. How many, who else, is out there feeling the same, but suffer in silence?
What comes here into play is also, his home life.
What do we really know about those here on the forum?

Yes words can hurt deeple, or lift a person up.
Some affecting us the rest of our lives, either way.
This sticks or stones can hurt but words can never, (or something like that?)
How wrong, how very wrong!
They can hurt like hell!

Yes I am sorry that Steve felt no one but me cared. That is sad for sure.
I did not post this just for Steve, but for all the Steve's who felt like he did.
Kept silent for so long.
Please let your needs be known, don't keep things to your self.
Many on this forum are listening.
Give us a chance.

Want to tell us why?
Anything we can do to change your mind?
Comon, we can't help if you don't tell us.

Good to see you back Adam.
My plea is not only about and for Steve.
It is also for other "Steve's out there.
Just hope we will all be more alert and compasionate,
when someone let's us know they are hurting or are asking
for help.
Damn, is it not an easy thing to admit this for anyone.

I have been granted broad shoulders, so negative stuff rolls off easier.
I hope to never aquire a thick skin.
People often say; Sticks and stones etc........does not hurt?
Like hell it doesn't!

Words have a lot of power!
Those spoken negatively as will as possitively.
I am very sorry some people felt it necessary to call you names Mary.

How do we change this?
I suppose this can only be on an induvidual basis.
The person doing the ridiculing has problems too.
On a whole different level.
The thing is this kind of person does not recognize his problem.
Just lashes out.

lol somechick so were my comment back just in general.
Yes I miss him too.
He really was liked by many.
Hope no other "Steve's" are leaving, because we did not reach out some how.

Right on brother. We can't be there for everyone but on the forum. we have a chance to get to know each other.
If someone needs anything, all they need to do is to tell us.

I often try to put my feet into someone else's shoes.
Sure way to find out how it would feel, if things
were directed towards you.

What bothered me it that this person needed to tell him this.
He really did not need to hear this did he?
It just added to how he already felt, left out.
It was insensitive to say the least.

I hope too that Steve returns.
Not all of us have a thick skin.
Rejection is big with me too.
Starting with my own mother.
Don't know what hurt more, besides losing
a loved one.

It does not matter is Steve was right or wrong
to feel the way he did.
The fact is; he did feel that way.

How do I explain Steve? I can't.
Just can tell you he was a gentle and likeable person.
Please find where he says; goodbye, in the thread; Peace

He was not only my friend, he wanted to make more friends.
Not all people know how to make friends easily.
Never heard a bad word out of this man, never!
He was given by some the "coupe the grace"

My posting is not just for Steve, but for all the
Steve's in the future.

Is this how it should be?
Yes, to the uplifting of someone's spirit.
NO, to the riducule.
We all experience things that hurt us. Some of the reasons we don't know, as it is not revealed.
It should be enough for us to know that someone on here is hurting. We don't need to know the details.

We lost Steve; He let us know how he felt. It was riduculed by some.
One person found it necesarry to remind him of things said in the past adding for good meausure, that he was talked about behind his back.I am sure that this is just what Steve needed to hear.
I don't care who said what.
Don't email me, give me hell right here, if you need to.
I was given broad shoulders for a reason.
Please don't make excuses either.
It was NOT necessary to say what some of you did.

Can we do better the next time someone feels hurt, is crying out for help?
Please lets be more sensitive and caring.
There are other "Steve"s out there.
We are our brother's keeper!
You may be the one who is hurting the next time!
