Observation about grudges in blogs.


Hi folks

Got to thinking about some of the disputes and arguments that happen in here from time to time, and it occurs to me that often when someone we've had a difference with in the past posts a blog or comment, we assume they are attacking us when in reality they are simply making a civil and polite statement. You can't hear vocal inflections or read body language, so sometimes I think we just make assumptions based on limited information.

I suppose we've all made that mistake. I know I have.

GBU all,

Gavin

Thank you Rainbow

"GBU" is something I got into a habit of doing as a sign off years ago. My original intention with it is "God Bless You", but if people prefer, they can read it to mean "Good Bye to You."

Occasionally a few don't appreciate it either way, but most people seem to like it.

GBU,

Gavin

I think we can all be super sensitive when its the written word. When its spoken its completely different.

It would seem that many take what does on here very seriously.

What does that tell us about the level of maturity?
