And if you complain about windy generalities that is because you are afraid or part of a sucking black hole. It's a completely circular and self referential world for Mr. Smart. I don't think there's anyway to break the cycle of endless platitudes.

Jibbee.... >>Forget about you? Then why don't YOU forget about ME?>> Because I chose not to. I will remember you for I chose not to judge you and your contributions. >>Perhaps your "YOU" is addressed to the world in general, not me specifically, but it comes across as very condescending and very offensive. (And very "labelling.")>> You want to corner or pin "me" down. I'm sorry I'm not playing these games with you for my focus is not on "us." >>For example: But if you take a moment to risk helping and serving someone I think you will find this yourself. Such effrontery! I'll bet you dollars to donuts that I have taken many more such moments than you ever have.>> It doesn't matter how many or few moments any of us have had. For love does not keep score. The last moment is all that matters. >>To every concrete situation, you respond with windy generalities.>> No, I just chose not to pick up a gun. Why? Because I have that freedom and I chose to go higher than this quid pro qup, tit for tat, judgmental score keeping. Do you know how easy it is to turn on a light? Even if I chose to NOT turn my light on, you can and vis. versa. There's not point to dividing, judging, labelling, defining and conquering. And if this sounds "windy" I'm sorry. Here I am jibbee. I'm chosing a fellow over there who I can help. If you chose to not be part of this now then fine. There's always tomorrow. Peace. .
