i was thinking, and for not just us all, but me included we ditch the word crazy. i hear it ads on tv, social media and stuff, and it is detrimental. this is not indicative of any posts, but i feel we need a more humane response with terminology. i guess my advocate hat is on and i am doing my mental health thingy.

H.T.,

You are so right...and I am guilty of this and other thoughtless words/statements at times. However, I think a lot of us use phrases as hyperbole....and intended meaning does play into the equation. Did I mean to hurt someone by my words?...Certainly not...was I being careless? Oops, yes I was.

But you are right, and we all need to try harder to be careful with our words...which can easily become unintentional weapons/nasty labels, ect.

Thanks for the reminder mate. You are always very thoughtful and caring, and we heart our Turtle!!

XOXOXO

Yes I agree HT

Words can hurt and stick with us for our whole lives. I hope that one day our world will be kinder to one another. We can always start the cycle now and make sure it sticks. Now is the time for change.

Good on ya.
