A Comment by Drifter that deserves a seperate post Hi folks. Recently, I wrote a post about insult posts. It has now scrolled off the Recent Post list but Drifter put a comment on there, that is one of THE wisest things I've ever read on BC. I felt it deserved a post of its own, so I'm taking liberties and quoting it here. Drifter is a wise man. Drifter's Comment I can't conjure up the verses right now, but there exist 'teachings' in the Bible that indicate that a person should know of his strengths and weaknesses, etc. Now, even though the term 'realist' isn't used, to me, that is what it means. And I think, maybe even know, that I am one. And it is hard to insult a realist. The reason is that the realist already knows if he is smart or weak or ugly or if his feet stink. There isn't a lot you can say to a realist that he doesn't already know about himself. In fact he is way ahead of you. He can insult himself faster, longer, and better than anyone else can. I know, because I do it quite frequently. *S* So, if someone comes up and wants to insult me...I jump in there and ask them if I can help them because they are doing a lousy job of it. (*S*....I mean, let's get it over and done with and move on. |

LOL Forgotu! I've long thought like Drifter describes a "realist" as thinking, but I seldom c it put so clearly and simply. And it was nice to consider some of the advantages of it too. I agree with u. He's a wise man. So are you.

TY Racefan! I was just so impressed with the simple and clear way Drifter described it, that I just had to make sure it got seen by more ppl before my original post rotated off the front list. GBU, Gavin
