(Fobsvithe) On Sincerity

If I were a more sincere person, I would not be nice to people to their faces, then say rude things about them on my blog (or elsewhere)--I would be rude to them to their faces. Until I'm ready to live that higher law, though, I'm going to try harder not to say mean things about people behind their backs, even if I secretly think those things.

There must be a story behind THIS post! :)

Yeah - there's some story there.

Maybe it's time for a Net break if folks are trashing you and it is bugging you. BTDT myself - and a good week off the Net put everything in perspective and I didn't care. JMO...

GOOD LUCK!

Sorry, I didn't mean to be mysterious. I was referring to my post two posts down, in which I said rude things about someone to whom I would never say such things directly.

Does that mean that I live the higher law since I'm willing to say rude things to people's faces?

Indeed, Edgy, you are a better man than I.

Ohhhhhhh.

Now I'll admit, I much preferred the version of this story that I'd created in my head. There was scandal, deceipt, and corruption. And a Mormon. All the makings of fine literature.
