I wish sometimes that I were less polite than I am. I wish that I could rail without impugnity when something is bothersome. Sometimes I wish my loyalties weren’t being tested so toughly.
That last one I don’t seem to have much control over. It still surprises me that I run into situations (even online) where my loyalties get pushed to an such an uncomfortable limit.
So what the hell am I talking about? That’s the thing. I can’t really say right now, because if I did it would be a breach of etiquette and just plain bad form. Maybe the ones testing my irritation level right now really wouldn’t care if I just let loose and criticized them all to hell and back. I’m just a little thing in the heiarchy, after all. But, if I did, then I’d be doing something against my character and something that could strain loyalties elsewhere because someone might say, “Well, I thought she was more loyal than that. Hmm, maybe I should watch what I say around her.”
Loyalty, trust, integrity… it’s all wrapped up and I’m tongue-tied. And frustrated.

It is the planets, stars, and a full moon lunar eclipse tomorrow!
Everyone seems to be out of sorts. Perhaps combined with the season change.
Tell stories … don’t give away the source … and if you are going to go to battle … take an army with you. lol.
here from the Dr. John Marathon……..
loyalty is one thing, being true to yourself is another…….not sure where one begins and one stomps on the toes of the other. Some people say whatever they want, and dare you to complain, other bite their tongue off rather than say a mean thing. I doubt either are happy. I guess the trick is to not let things that people say bother you. Then you just don’t have to worry about responding.
hmmmm….let it go!!! thats what blogs are for

Oh ho! If it were a different time, a different place, and if I were more like my ancestors……lets just say annoying me would have ancient consequences…..
Oh I know what you mean. I know exactly what you mean. It’s easy enough for me to say, but pick and choose your battles. Some things it’s fine to let slide, others, things that you feel count, you should let someone know what you truly think. I always think of it this way, if I say or do something, are the risks(ie losing friends, money…) worth the rewards(whether they be my feeling better with myself or whatever thing, rewards is absract). I don’t know, hope this whole comment wasn’t too presumptuous! I’m not a know it all even though I act like one!!!
