Nope. Treat all humans with respect, until that individual causes you to not. Remember there is only one race , the human. It’s individuals that cause issues. Just saying

Very true. The thing some forget is life has rules just like websites do.

Does anyone remember the MANSHOW?

I used to watch it with my work BUD. We used to call each other Bud at work. Then we got a nice duplex. Had a lot of Barbecues for work there.

There was one guy at that shop some called little ole beep.

I think you are right on this. when you are young you are still a little unsecure in what you believe to be true and can not tolerate anything that challenges that so aften everything is black or white. As you get older you run into all sorts of things that just don't fit into what you thought was true so you start to quetion as a result when you are old two things happen the things contraditory things seem to happen some things you grow more dogmatic in because they have been challenged over and over again and have been proven to be true and some things you become more tolerant and open to because what you believed has been challenged over and over again and it hasn't always fit or proven to be true so you realize you really don't have all the answers just some of them. Guess we just need to know what we know to be true, and what we think is true and even what we hope is true and know the difference between knowing, thinking and hopeing.

Everyone’s life and experiences are different. What’s “right” to one can be entirely wrong to another. All we have to do is look around to see how clear that is. I’m probably wrong about one thing or another every day. I’m grateful for the chance to learn from it.
Good post, G. Thanks for asking.

Gotcha Greg. I’m a little too much “don’t tread on me”. I guess you can say I’m completely “black and white” no gray areas in my life.

When I hear some say well that's a real grey area I think they know black or white. The right way won't benefit then n they need the gray area deal to pad their pockets.

As adults we should know the difference between right and wrong. It’s just coming up with the same conclusion of which is which…🐟on

Gmon Dave. I did my share of things I knew wasn't right. Once I got involved with Brody I knew I had to set n example. Not the because I said so bull#@$&. I had to walk the talk. Yes I'm proud of how Bug n I raised him. He's made all of us proud. I finally got something right. 👍👍

Yep one has to walk the walk and talk the talk Griz, more so when among the youngins than in our everyday goings.

Then again it sure doesn't hurt to do it 24/7.

[quote=ghaynes1]Let me be clear - this post is NOT about race or race relations. Okay, got that out of the way. Hopefully.

The older I get the more questions I have about a variety of things. I used to be a black and white guy. No shades of gray. Things were either right or wrong. This way or that way.

As I got older, I realized people and circumstances aren't that simple. There are plenty of reasons why things happen or why people behave a certain way.

If you have things all figured out in your life, more power to you. If you know the answer to everything, fantastic. I don't.

I'm amazed by the number of people that do. They know everything and have all the right answers to life's questions. They are seldom if ever, wrong. Ask them.

Are you one those people? Be honest. Just asking.[/quote

Those people are the ones who say my way or the highway.

Definitely not black and white here. Had my head turned a few times when younger and thankfully learned to keep my eyes and ears OPEN.
