While I have hundreds of ideas in the course of a week, it's always nice to remember the idea of sitting quietly, and if it's safe to do so, to Close One's Eyes, Breathe and Relax and say a calm, "Thank You".

Thanks for your honest response, Carl and to others who took a moment to read some or all of my first response. We could choose to have a 12-step type respect that doesn’t judge, but I appreciate honest feedback and hope you can allow others who sound anything like me more consideration in how you share Your Opinions.

Someone said lawyers don’t need to make a good argument as much as they need to knock the credibility or insult the argument or speaker, so that bulldog approach may work in some circuits but I’m headed toward world peace such as promoted by
