Ever said something you regretted?

  • Wish you could pull it back?
  • Everyone does. Without thinking. The heat of the moment.
  • Forgot the rules. Offended someone. Got banned.
  • Yes, it is usually unintentional. But, it's out there!


Wish you could apologize?
  1. Learn from it!
  2. Don't let it happen again.
  3. Usually best to just learn and move on...
  4. Don't cry over spilled milk!

Now for the other side of the coin!

  • Don't wear your feelings on your sleeve!
  • Be tolerant and understanding.
  • Be slow to condemn... you may find yourself in the same spot!
  • We all make mistakes... YOU too!

I leave you with this quote from Bob Dylan:

"Don't criticize what you can't understand."

My school teacher mother often reminded me:

"If you can't improve on the silence, keep your mouth shut."

Still good advice.

Saying something just for the sake of filling an empty space is what often gets us in trouble. For some reason humans cannot stand to have a lull in conversation--the quietness drives us nuts-we have to fill it with something. And that's when we usually say something we shouldn't have. That's when we would like to shrink to about an inch above the floor.

So true Barbara.
