There are not too many people to admire and yet there are not so many to hate.

Heath Lowrance...
Heath Lowrance said,"I...Hi! Heath Lowrance...<br /><i> Heath Lowrance said,"I have, on occasion, been accused of being a misanthrope."</i><br />You have? that not the feeling that I get from your online persona...I remember posting on your blog for the first-time...I was somewhat <i>"apprehensive"</i> you, on the other hand, was kind and didn't give me the feeling Of not wanting to communicate with me or your readers. (Fellowman/woman)<br /><br /><i>"But I don’t hate people, I really don’t. Sure, I get frustrated by them very often..."</i><br />Who don't? you, wouldn't be human or at best honest...Because I think that all people share that feeling at sometime or other in their life.(lives)<br /><br /><i>"I rarely want to spend any time with them, and once in awhile I’ll even get the overwhelming urge to start breaking noses."</i> <br />(Laughter)...I pride myself on being a very gentle person, but I must admit that I felt like that once...since I started blogging.<br /><br />From this sentence here...<br /><i>"But I don’t hate people, I really don’t."</i> <br />Up until your question here...<br /><i>That doesn’t mean I HATE dinosaurs, does it?</i><br />I understand what you are saying and I quite agree with you, and your feelings about <i>"some"</i> people behavior on this earth that we inhabit. Believe me I have encountered them online and offline too! <br /><br />Thanks, for sharing your thoughts with your readers.<br /><b>Cont...</b>Ténèbres à la lumière...https://www.blogger.com/profile/10606359132036891911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7993944993300859915.post-68602768147504120152011-01-19T13:41:19.755-08:002011-01-19T13:41:19.755-08:00I feel you.

Some people deserve judgment or at least put their neck on the stump, but some people are just trying to get through the day as idiots. <br /><br />But yeah, try to make everyone understand that.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11483490020980574428noreply@blogger.com
