Because life is complex...

[benzozw4]

... I tend to see tens of possibilities why a person would do something trivial or big. I am not judgmental because I can't be in the shoes of the person who did it and that statement is not just to look good, I will often refuse to talk with people who just want to talk down about someone else. Who are we to decide the other one is such and such?

Your english is excellent. I'll start posting in French and we'll have a good laugh. ;)

I, for one, could try to follow your priciples. Thank you.

Tu devrais essayer!

There is no nice principle in that, just an oversentive kid you could not play with her friend because the friend's mother had told the friend my brothers were bad or the other Catholic mother who told her my siblings were living in "state of sins" when I was not even old enough to know what was a sin but I knew it hurt to hear it. Then I became a charismatic catholic myself, oh joy, I had the Truth, the rest could go to hell then I then I had that abortion which was a one-way ticket to hell, then everything fell into places; everyone is doing their best, period. Yes there are morons, jerks, but it is their personal limit, the sum of their own life events or plain pain that make them what they are. It doesn't excuse anything, it just help to not get too much hurt.

I always find so interesting to read about childhood, I find it explains so much. I didn't know that part of you and even If I already knew that I will never be able to cross my boops like you do and that you are a hell of a smart person, it gives some very relevant perspective. thanks.

i find that as i get less judgmental about myself, i get less judgmental about other people.

I think it's a phoenetic spelling of the Polish for "dragon", Erica, pfft :-p

Or at least Wikipedia says that the Online Etymology Dictionary derives "schmuck" from the Polish "smok". And apparently the Yiddish "schmuck"'s been borrowed into German as "schmock"... So I'm guessing that some places "smock" would be the common spelling and pronunciation, or would have been at some point(s) in time...

:-D I love etymology :-D
