Do you ever worry about the effect that something you write on here, could have on somebody?

I try to be sensitive, but not to the point of coddling or not being my "authentic self".

You should always consider that what you say or text will have an impact on others, either positive or negative. I will always support free speech, but the gap between free speech and responsible speech is very wide. Responsible speech is an indication of your character.

I hope my words only cause people to smile, think, ponder, giggle, or have no effect...but never leave any intended negativity. But there's no guarantee that someone won't be unexpectedly negatively affected.

I don't wish to hurt anyone personally. I don't worry about it.

I am honest. I choose my words carefully when giving advice.
