Re: Step up or "Thanks for all the fishes"
People are frequently asked to "share" their views, however, what happens is that others take that as license to say whether they agree or disagree, add & substract, label as positive or negative, give thumbs up or down, turning things into a debate rather than a sharing (as Brook said, it's like trying to show how spiritually aware you are).
A sharing is not an invitation for critique. Maybe one should ask first if they would like to critique or maybe the poster would state whether they invite debate.
If we are using shielding and discernment, handle our own stuff instead of making it public. It troubles me for others to make a public display of pointing out the boogie-man. Moderators can be of assistance w/consultations and then there are ways to communicate to someone behind the scenes. And we all have triggers and feelings that can be hurt, me too.
ps:
Stargate? Thanks for the military term page, Tango being military (I'm a former military brat & didn't know this.
And, man! I am so tired of this website's log-in timing out so quickly, so often it is that I have to log on again and again< what is with that? ok, I'm taking my own advice and asking a moderator.
