Lately there has been much talk of politics, ethics, and subsequently some disagreements, and bruised egos.
I think this is partially due to what is scientifically known as "Post Columbia springer mania". It could also be due, however, to the closely related disease, "Pre Wind River Mania" better known as "Where the heck are they?"
To put things in perspective, and to give people freedom of their opinion, consider the old saying, "You can't please everyone, so you have to please yourself".
This is illustrated below.
You run for President of the U.S., you win, with a margin of 55%.
You are President of the United States! WHooo hooooo!
However, there are still 45% of the people out there, who wished someone else had won.
That to me, is humbling, and helps me to understand, and to not take others opinions as strongly.
Thanks, and be aware, that there are multitudes of opinions out there, and we should be able to peacefully, (and without slamming or flaming) explore other peoples feelings, and consider them, without taking them personally.
