Well sometimes I have a problem with being too precise and/or opinionated. It's especially irksome when I can give exact samples of my thinking, which I almost always can.
I guess that's why I ended up in computer programming, you must be cold and methodical with those things because they'll only do exactly what you say. Works great for systems design, but can sometimes stomp on people's feelings inadvertently.
Of course I am very warm hearted and kind, but at the same time my heart is kind of covered with frost! If that's not an impossible contradiction! So these days I say to myself "Well this isn't a real, real, kind thing to say, but is it truly how it appears to me, and is the person tough enough to handle it?" And I thought, well bentfeather has been writing for 30 years so her skin must be a mile thick by now.
So fair warning (or I guess I should have given that earlier!), if invited to comment there is a chance that I'll make us both unhappy!!!!!

I like this a lot.... kind of like my heart. ;)
Thick skin and frosty heart, fodder for another poem!
