Liz... Your silence is deafening.

Liz... Your silence is deafening.

Perhaps she has other things on her mind right now.

Like maybe actually reading the constitution. I doubt it but we can hope.

Something to think about on Tuesday.

"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence. You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves."

–Abraham Lincoln

It's funny, I guess it shows why Abraham Lincoln was such a great orator. I agree with the above quote, and yet, I am pretty sure that I have a totally different interpretation of it than you do.

Actually she is having a serious medical condition that could kill her taken care of in the next few days. If you were to visit other areas of this site, you'd know.
Do you even own pets or do you come here just to instigate and create ill feelings?

Thanks for posting this. I did send both blue and Puckstop a private message just this morning - enlightening them. Or so I hope.

I read the thread when it was first posted and didnt add anything as I have no experience with the procedure or illness. I didnt connect the lack of responses by Liz to her thread and what she is going through do to my lack of an attention span, and my own medical issues along with everything else that has gone on recently.

Liz I appologise for any snide, snarky, or sacastic comments Ive made while you are dealing with the issues you are dealing with. I pray and wish you the best with what you are going through.

Look, not taking sides here, but why is it ok for Liz to make a snarky comment to Blue and Puck, but it's not ok for them to make a comment to her because she's ill?? She made some not so nice comments to Blue right after his friend (who was his boss) died.

I'm wondering if maybe she's made comments like that because she is ill. Not an excuse, but maybe that's part of it, ya know??

It's also very possible that Blue and Puck didn't read her post about her condition. I hope that she has a good outcome with it. I wouldn't want to be in her shoes, it's a scary condition.

Everyone needs to show some compassion. Let me leave it at that.

Lizbud has been a member here for almost a decade, Blue joined a month ago and pretty much had the guns drawn and the insults flying from the get go...its really hard to feel the same.

You know Jenn, one thing is making nasty comments sometimes and then balancing it out with posts about lighthearted things, and another is being a downright jerk all the time. I've been attacked by lizbud myself a few times but it was all in good fun. Some people here take things too personally.

Let's just get along. I really care about all of you.

I just mean that we all need to show compassion. Whether a new member, or a member who has been here for a decade. No one should be treated any differently. We all deserve to be shown compassion.
