David, don't you recognize frustration when you see or read it? We all say things when we are frustrated and often times we indicate defeat, but that doesn't mean we are defeated.
I don't think it's very nice for you to keep rubbing StormChild's nose in what was obviously posted in a moment of frustration. :sad:
It's better to be helpful and encourage than to ridicule. At least that's my opinion. A pat on the back and a helping hand goes far to pick people up and give them encouragement that they aren't alone.
"It is good to see ourselves as
others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we
are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not
angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to
say." - Ghandi
