Things we should have learned in kindergarten....
I want to add my 2 cents to what has been happening on this board lately: I have just sat back in disbelief this last week! I was so thrilled to have found this board after my bypass, and have been less than thrilled by the way some have acted lately. Sharing other parts of our lives is crucial to sharing our heart information because sometimes our other lives are what caused our heart problems to begin with. And a joke or link to something that is meaningful to them is a way of sharing. I thought we were to give support/build each other up during a trying time, and yet some appear to be hell bent on tearing people down. And I don't understand it. It all goes along with "The Golden Rule", "Things we should have learned in kindergarten..." and that old thing your mama taught you..."If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all." Then again, maybe some of it's just plain old being a mean person. You don't have to agree with everything posted here. But that doesn't give you the right to post an attack against someone because you don't agree with a post. There are kinder ways than the ones you have chosen. Saying that you are lonely and need attention doesn't make it all right to verbally attack someone on this board. You just did that last week, apologized, and yet here you go doing it again. Did you ever stop to think that maybe that's why you are lonely? Actions like that will certainly drive people away. I wear my heart and feelings on my shoulder, and I've tried to put my self in the place of the couple of people whom you've called an idiot and ridiculed. I would be devastated. People who have heart problems, have had strokes and all sorts of other illnesses do not need the cruelty of some of your posts. Your latest assault was against a person who has recently suffered a stroke and being hospitalized for several units of blood. She is also a person who has been most kind to you and everyone else on this board. My first thought was to not post on the board anymore. But I hate to have the actions of one or two make me miss the company of the several others on this board that I enjoy. I'm not mentioning the name(s) of the person(s) of whom I speak. If the shoe fits, wear it. Connie Connie Turner

Technology has saved my life, to here of these petty insignificant things about specific postings makes me laugh. Most people don't appreciate everything. Some people can use words like bullets ----so what! Being around an inspirational person or reading something inspiring often helps me! Some times I sit in awe at the way people perceive things---I read an article about a man who is on his third heart----he is cycling in bike races all over the world-now this is someone to inspire my daily activities!!! Everyone have a nice DAY!!!!! connie Turner <connieque@... Good for you Rita! You can't keep a good gal down! Connie rita_p44 <rita_p44@... Morning Connie You made me smile.....
