World is getting rough and it can bite back. This is
something I learned and the message below was well
written.
Throughout my 8 years with USCCA, I have learn to be
Kinder, will not seek trouble even when other people
are harder on me, I have grown stronger and walk
away from lies and verbal abuse. When someone
speaks verbal abuse towards others, those words will
shred and destroys life.
I have been on the output side, it hits hard, I have
been on the receiving side and bad words will
painfully rip you apart.
When you are caught in the middle of someone
Seeking to destroy and all they seek is Gaslighting and narcissistic behavior, please walk away.
To walk away from harm and abuse takes being a hero and bravery and please never feed their pride and egos, it only fuels hatred towards anyone in a negative fight.
I was looking for that word the other day for one of my posts. Thanks.
I have build a resilience to others peoples words. I was taught at a young age sticks and stones will break my bones, but names will never hurt me. Hateful words are only hurting the people that are saying them.
I read a book the body keeps the score. It taught me how not to act on my emotions. Too many people these emotional thoughts are very real and can hurt them physically. That is why I am careful not to hurt peoples feelings because one never knows what physical damage it can do. I think between friends it is OK because we know that is not the intention.
To the subject at hand, I have developed a sarcasm switch in my head and it is a conscious effort to me to flip it on or off. There are times when playing keyboard commando that the 12-year-old in me turns the switch on. Sometimes the 62-year-old in me catches it and turns it back off. Sometimes not, though, hence the āwhips and chainsā mentioned above.
I would say unless they are fighting words issued as an āin personā threat. just walk away.
I donāt know if I am all the time or with my posts
I must admit I have bitten back āWhen Trolls Attackā and for that I will
not apologize. I just hope I have NEVER ābittenā an Innocent here and
out in the World. I make a concerted effort to be Neutral these days
when a negative person crosses my path (because it is very easy for things to
escalate out of control RAPIDLY because of the pressures put on us by
outside forces).
Good post William_H, Made me go Hmmmmmmm
Just a closing note to my Brotherās and Sisterās here. I wish to make amends to
anyone of you fine folkās if I have keyboarded across your heart. I make no excuses
on my actions suffice it to say Hurting anyone was not my Intention.
My Tongue (and Keyboard can be sharp sometimes)
If I may Sir, I think that is from being āCOMBAT ORIENTEDā
(and you donāt have to have been IN COMBAT to acquire---------but it does help! )
I developed a Hard Shell from my experiences (My opinion) and since no one here knew me before āYouāll just have to take my damn word for it!ā KnowhatImean?
āI almost Peed reading that!ā Through my Combat Brotherhood I developed a TWISTED Sense of humor (I LIKE THAT!) and now here with my NEW Brothers and Sisterās it is like coming home.
Thank you all.
adonde nosotros vamos uno nosotros ir todo!!!
Nessun passo sul serpente
I donāt much care what āTheyā have to say anyways, Who Are āTheyā? I donāt know them and for the most part I donāt want to know them. I hear people rattling off B.S. all of the time around here. The most they usually get out of me is a chuckle and a āReally?ā.
In the past 8 years I have faced struggles in
staying out of situations that can cause verbal and
physical arguments and many disagreements.
I am not attempting or trying to take over your
conversations, but I am very happy to read what other people are going through each day that everyone is facing. I request that you never
stop prayer or being vigilant.
After all my training comes to Situational Awareness
and avoiding trouble.
I remember reading somewhere that āAn insult is like a strong drinkā¦it only affects you if you accept it.ā
In my own experience, ignoring insults pisses off the insulter worse than responding to them. When people resort to insults it usually means theyāve run out of intelligence and I donāt have enough time left in this life to waste of it any on stupid people.
all the time or 
with my posts
Salute!
