Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you’ll be a mile away and you’ll have their shoes

Well it seems much more welcoming on this side, get fed up of the sarky comments on the blue side! Dont know why we cant all play nicely, its like being back at schooll! :lol:
Its def nicer on this side, the absence of certain personalities ensures that, as soon as they come over, that’s me gone off here too!

Yes we will all miss you NG!

and thanks Christine, I usually have a laugh at what's said and can usually predict how most are gonna react to a thread and that makes me chuckle even more, i would hate to be that predictable!


My thought for today

courage does not always roar sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying "i will try again tomorrow"

fitting for my day today i feel!

I noticed a certain amount of friction from/towards certain members on the blue side

Here's my thought:

I'm pink, therefore I'm spam

Nothing in the set of statements you made equates power with non-bliss. (I'm not saying it is also bliss, but you're asking for a mathematical-like ratio answer without giving apples to apples factors.)

.intelligence is the basis while ambition is the precursor to pursuits...

...so likewise the bird is the basis...but without its wings it cannot "fly" and continue to pursue and materialise the ambitions...

I’m not even going to pretend I understand half of what you write so I’ll ignore that. I’m getting sick of you commenting on all my posts in a negative and / or contradictory manner.

This isn’t like the other forums and we’re a friendly bunch. I for one intend to keep it like that so I expect this to stop ASAP.

Firstly, I don't intend to 'win' anything as I don't play games.

Secondly, I have never made any negative or derogatory comments towards you so thats your paranoia speaking and

Thirdly, this isn't going to be like any other forum as I intended to nip this in the bud by stating what I had to in a direct and clear manner.

End of issue.
