I AM...

I am whatever YOU think I am until YOU get to KNOW me. This is true for everyone else too, of course.. so don't make assumptions about anyone or pass judgment; ask questions. You might just make a new friend.

SILENCE IS REALLY, REALLY, REALLY GOLDEN (SOMETIMES)

Ever notice how self expression from others can be both ‘golden and dark’? Like fire, it can keep one warm, and provide heat for food, or destroy. One has to only pick any story on the net and see how negative 99% of the comments are. Some call them opinions, but I call it noise because opinions can heals, provide nurturing and security…Noise is the result we get when opinions fall short of its potential and it is this device that causes great pain and further hate. I know that silence can be selfish and thoughtless. Silence destroys bridges to friendships. Silence is to turn the lights out on another’s light that can dwindle to memories of the heart that begin to fade in time. Silence living in the light blesses all around, like a golden glow it is words touch from heart to heart without words. However, lately it seems that the opinions of others have a built in ‘preemptive’ delete button when it comes to being civil and one just chooses to inconsiderately initiate negativity. Whatever happened to keeping your mouth shut if you can’t offer any constructive criticism?
