The internet is not a good place to speak of emotions. Afterall it's like a child taking candy from a stranger. Trust me I've tried and failed. The place for talking emotions is at a church or in the company of family. Now if one were completely emotionaly secure you might disagree. Myself I have no room to speak of emotions becasue I am an emotional wreck. SO the question I raise is this:
At what point do you draw the line and say enough is enough, when it comes to the selfexpression of emotions??
Personally I have no clue as to how to explain my emotions I usually just reach out with my heart and let go, sometimes I make sence but usually it just turns in to a blundering mess and I end up making a fool out of myself. It's like I don't have enough knowledge and I end up speaking of things that I don't know of as if I do and it all turns out like a disaster. So I play it as a joke and really I'm just a fool in wise clothing.
Questions?? Commets?? Concerns??
Just about everything posted on a forum is mis-understood, read into, over reacted to, misses subtile attempts at off the cuff humor, mis-interpreted, over-analized, feeds preconceived notions, prejudice and bias about what you believe on poster to think or feel, and feeds already weak emotional states. I just gave up and said fuck it, I don't care if you get it or not.
We are all fools in wise clothing. Or maybe I am wise in fools clothing. I dunno.

That should be a tag line.

This is kind of my "go-to" attitude, unless I have an inkling to stop myself and make an effort to practice more patience, humility, or something else that is required to mitigate my arrogance. This is a situational thing. Many times, I experience a scale of "diminishing returns" when dealing with people. This discourages me from making great efforts, if I expect them to be wasted.

I think, that's a brilliant idea!

Does anyone else have to be there?

But not anal-ized enough to catch "analyzed." ;)

I agree, the more years I spend here, the less I care about what people think or whether or not they are offended.

Thank you, it has never been a strong point but most people understand what I am trying to say.
