because, character.
Don't give up on people
Return kindness
with kindness
Tell. The. Truth.
Have a glorious sense of humor,
about all things.
Don't ascribe to adolescent drama.
Making mistakes is human.
Remember that while accepting others
will always make mistakes too.
Try to forgive that which isn't inherently evil.
Bask in humility.
... and always,
be brave.
So brave that fear
could never shield honesty
Because there's unmitigated
honor in being real
To become better
To be better
My heart
is willing enough—
Is yours?

a heart is always willing
its the mind that falters
then love hangs in the balance

You're right... it's lack of follow through and possibly fear that leaves one lacking of something like character.... there's always hope.
I thank you, Colin.... for everything.
You keep me going

To err is human to forgive is divine, Shakespeare. I will always treat the ladies including yourself with Kindness and Respect. Keep on writing you strong beautiful sexy woman.

Dear BV,
A glorious write. I’m kind of embarrassed because I was in the store the other day and the “14”year old clerk couldn’t answer a single question. I gave a huge huff and a not so genuine thank you before I realized he probably wasn’t trained well, if at all. Now I read your poem of understanding and forgiveness now I have to go back and apologize to him. Ugh!
Fine. 🙄 I’ll do it.😏
Lovely write. I appreciate the gentle reminder and huge message behind it. H🌷

I'm on the phone or zoom all day, so I get caught up, similarly ... I get kind of robotic and forgetful of REAL reality.. ... Until I snap myself out of it and then I'm like, Oh yeah!!— Bad Blue!! ... 😂 ... They're actually PEOPLE you're dealing with.... duh..... 🥺🙄
This was just random thoughts from yesterday and I'm so appreciative of your visit and the generous list add, H. I hope you've recouped from NaPo and you're doing well.
It's so nice to see you 🦋
Much love and respect,

Hee hee hee...I giggled 🤭 at your 🔊... Nice!
Hey there ethan,
Your comments made my day yesterday! Yes yes yes.... Talk about mistakes!!?!... Holy hell.... I'm there with you.... Sometimes I feel like Homer Simpson lives in my head because all I can hear is DOH!!.... jeez.... lol.
I too, strive to steer free of needlessly provoked or stoked drama.... however, there's been times when that's easier said than done... I just keep my head up and carry on ... That's the best f.u. In my opinion.... lol.
There's hope yet, for humanity... I try to believe. I like to think when you read it written out, it doesn't seem so daunting.... and potentially doable.
Thank you for reading and leaving me with your thoughts, it means a lot to me and I'm so appreciative.

I love that in the sage advice you've given you've also laid out some caution when it comes to forgiven as long we know that which is "inherently evil". These words taken to heart show growth and humility but they also give peace of mind in the process.
Stunning spill.

Re: Re. because, character.
I liked going back and reading this one again, trying to remember my particular headspace in the moment... I think I was just fed up with some specific people portraying themselves one way, when in reality they end up being downright awful... lol... It's a hard lesson learned. Seeing the manipulation to maintain a false exterior is wearisome, indeed. I ALWAYS give the benefit of the doubt, but in doing so, I have to also be prepared for that consequence of it going bad, too. I wish that goodness was the automatic default for humans and you had to really work at being an asshole... Unfortunately (and sadly), for some that's the total reverse.... Being my own goodness and doing the best as one person can to be of genuine truth, as much as possible, is all I can ask of myself. I surround myself with those who feel similar in words, deed and actions ... Randomly, I shout out a reminder, once in a while that it's something valuable to work at, via a piece like this.
I thank you for reading and those extremely thoughtful and insightful comments, Walter.
It's kindness like yours that gives me hope...
Much appreciated!
