Hey, I’m sorry and I’d genuinely feel bad if my comment seemed like I was targeting you; I will re-read and look for ways to communicate better. I wasn’t being mean-spirited, truly. I was just trying to convey my feelings about how we all could do better to try and move the cursor of focus on the the good intentions of peoples’ struggles; People and things are so rarely black and white. Your first comment sounds like you are a person of high personal ethical standards. Since I don’t know you beyond this thread, I choose to believe that, (after all, why not?). Perhaps you hold others to the similar standards, standards that you’ve earned, and ideally others will earn too. The world would be a better place if we all held high, un-temptable, ethical standards. But holding everyone to that expectation just isn’t realistic, but that doesn’t mean, we can’t, in good faith, try and encourage others to have that goal. I’m just trying to leave the door open to the idea that those that have not made it there yet, will often respond better to encouragement instead of admonishment. I realize that this comment and my previous one will be construed by many as admonishment—I don’t mean it to be. I admire you for your character and simultaneously relate to the OPs self awareness. With each other’s help, we can all be better.
