@Ontheroad @BrandNewMan You learn more by watching their actions than listening. Talking can be just lip service with nothing to back it up. So yeah. Can the pretty words and show me who you are.

@Ontheroad Exactly.

@cherny You have to. People lie.

@LadyBronte People do all kinds of things that are hurtful...me included...I am far from perfect but I'm learning for myself

@cherny None of us are perfect, but I do try not to mislead others. That can't be said for everyone. A difficult lesson to learn.

@BrandNewMan Yeah. Years of whatever that was we've had, is enough to change how you see most things.

@InterdimensionalSideEye Same here. But no more.

@LadyBronte the thing is, if one believes most people are shit, that’s pretty jaded. I think most people are just living their lives in their own worlds. The problem for me is that I often give and try to understand those that don’t really want to be understood, they just want to build up their own egos to feel good about themselves. Or they want something specific that is material. It’s just about being more discerning with mercy.

@antonioioio Never again. It's "put up or shut up" now.

@wildbill83 Reslist here too. Sure different than I used to be.

@whowasthatmaskedman I don't know as I'd say humanity is quite that bad as a whole. I think there are the truly kind hearted as well as the nasty. But I definitely agree..."Never lead with your heart". Extremely sound advice.

@LadyBronte I am not saying there are not some wonderful human beings out there. I just dont expect everyone to put the common good above self interest..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Agreed.

@Adroneandastrain Interesting.

@TheHammer I still don't have to like it. Shitty people don't do much positive for the world - at least rain nourishes the flowers, trees, and grasses, plus it gives us something to dance in.

@LadyBronte
Shitty people are more effective tho. Otherwise the world wouldnt be so shitty

@TheHammer Can't argue that. Lol.
