I have made this mistake and taken for granted how it might hurt others. Which is kinda ironic considering that my father was in a wheel chair for 20 years of his life. Although, I don't recall this term being used in his direction, I did hear a host of mean terminology over the years. Definitely hurtful. I am more conscious of such speech now, thank you. Your photos are full of joy. More life, love and laughter...rawqueenhttp://somethingblu.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4798085936021183309.post-16801849990097877192010-03-06T18:44:02.671-08:002010-03-06T18:44:02.671-08:00Dear Catherine, I enjoy reading your blog on my ph...Dear Catherine, I enjoy reading your blog on my phone as I give Rosemary her nighttime bottle (yes, she still gets one bottle a day before bed, despite what the pediatrician & daycare recommend...:) and I felt compelled to haul my butt down to the desk computer so I could leave you a comment...<br /><br />You and Max and your whole family are radical, rich, and rare. You are now relabled as royal, ravishing, and RELEVANT.<br /><br />As far as how you hand'ed all your encounters that you shared, where DO you find the patience & forgiveness? That said, your comment about your inner dialogue about "being liked" makes me want to remind you that what I like in you is that you command respect for your family -- but you're so gentle about it it kind of blows my mind. many hugs to you & yours. :) -PatsyPatsynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4798085936021183309.post-91784247595510825112010-03-04T16:34:56.932-08:002010-03-04T16:34:56.932-08:00Thanks for sharing that article.

I've caught myself before not knowing what to say in some situations too, but I've found the more I stand up the easier it gets. I use ridiculous or silly as well. :-)To Love Endlesslyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11528196412794557736noreply@blogger.com
