Oh Sam! I am so sorry. I loved your “Bless her heart”. Well said my friend.

Are you aware you can NOT stay mad if you smile? Yup! Try it!

When we get mad the first question we should ask ourselves: “Who is not doing something that “I” want them to do.”
If you answer that question honestly 99.9% of the time it is YOUR expectation not them! 🙂

I applaud you taking the higher ground. Holy Cheese on a Cracker here people. If you want to put that energy toward something important figure out how to end world hunger! THERE. Go! Do it!

I prefer to treat everyone as a friend I have yet to meet and I want them to have a good first impression of me. Why can’t we all do that? Say Hello! Wave at strangers! Be the source of the goodwill rather than demanding the receipt of it!

Love ya!
Sew On!

In reply to Deb Yeska. thank you for that vote of confidence! And actually - people have been way meaner to some of my friends (as always, I'm fighting for us all!)

Crazy but just today I read a quote that sure applies to this. It goes
Ike this “don’t worry about someone who isn’t happy with you. Chances are they really aren’t happy with themselves.” So there you go! It’s her problem, not yours.

Many years ago, my friend Fr. Leo O’Brien ended a church service by saying, “Let us be gentle with one another today.” I have been trying to live by those words every since. Your words are another reminder, Sam. Thank you!

Don’t let her get to you – she must have an awful life if she gets that nasty over something like that. There’s a lot of us out here that have a much happier life enjoying what others have created and have to offer (and your creations are wonderful!). So breath and forget the few!!

But sorry, I do love Otis’ version……enjoy them both I guess! Sew on!!!!
