RE: Venting & Difficult People

[Guest guest]

Hi Lily, welcome to the club. It is ok to tell it like it is. I for one

appreciate true feelings. Things are either black or white to me it either

is or isn't. I truly believe that when people tell the truth they get to

the bottom of what ills them. Cheerfully, Myra

Hey Sweetmeat,

I'm glad you vented with us! Now I know that this is exactly the kind of

list I was hoping for and that the folks who speak up here are caring, real

people. At last! But then maybe all the years we've had to deal with the

most uncaring (or just plain ignorant) physicians, friends, family members,

and even strangers have helped. It's nice to see people who are willing to

give you a shoulder to lean on during the rough times and some good, tested

advice when that's needed too..

I sympathise with the " different attitude " you encountered. Everybody has

his/her own belief on what works (and many of them are valid) but to give

someone an earful just because

(s)he doesn't believe the same thing is sad. But then there's always

something that's going to get to people. I guess I should know, I'm a

stay-at-home, organic/simple living, vegetarian, naturo/homeopathic health

believing, homeschooling Mama Chick. Trust me, I find *lots* of people who

have a problem with something I do or believe in! And that's okay...well as

long as they're not venting their feelings *rudely* in my face! LOL

Sorry for the lenght, I'll shut up and get back to lurking :-)
