Sometimes when we come from different places in our lives we make statements that are insensitive or maybe just dumb or perhaps what we said was misunderstood. We have a terrible tendency to just jump, all of us do, and pile on only to learn later that we were wrong or that nothing bad was ever meant.

I don't know what your exchange was but I do know there were some very bad exchanges between people here all intertwined with a host problem. It seemed to me a lot of people were smeared when what they were doing was totally different than what they were accused of. It just all happened at once. I was not here, I did not see it or participate in it so take that for what it is worth. I have spent the time looking at everything I could find out about the situation and this is what I see.

It takes a big person to actually see the truth of someone they have been angry with and then publicly put that information out for public consumption. I don't know you at all but I certainly appreciate your ability to do that.

My smile for today, thank you Catherina. A step forward we should all try to take.
