I don't think you should be pussyfooted round (I'm staying away from gloves!) in the "poor dear, let's just humour her" way. That's too hard for/on you (you're bound to sense it) and too hard for/on your correspondents/friends/family (stifles spontaneity (that's a b* of a word to spell when you're tired!) and risks interactions being horribly stilted). However I do think that we (your readers etc.) can be aware that sometimes you may read into a comment, or something that happens, something that other people might not. To borrow your term, it may be whether we/you/they are using wise minds or not at the time; we can all read more into something than the originator meant! <BR/><BR/>Maybe overall it's more a case of remembering that different people see things differently refracted (different glasses) and taking account of that, sometimes maybe more than others. And that, of course, is applicable to all of us for all of us (especially those of us, and I certainly count myself in here, liable to react too swiftly to something that 'pushes a button'). <BR/><BR/>If that made any sense at all (see tired!). Feel free to nag, or stare hard at, me the next time you see me if you want!<BR/><BR/>And now I'm off to try and add something to my collecting habit!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
