Let’s all develop some thicker skins, hmmm?

We needn’t come across like eight year old girls whining in the schoolyard that somebody has said something nasty to them. We have to expect some name calling and some attitude. After all, when people are opposed to us and have very little real justification for it, vitriolic vehemence and a vigourous flurry of misdirection go a long way.

In a way, I do admire those Jehovah’s Witnesses that show up at the door sprightly and upbeat even after a hard day’s walking from door to door to experience a variety of delivery of abuse. Or the LDS missionaries (or come to think of it, just about every Mormon that I’ve ever met).

So, with a smile on our (online) faces and purpose in our hearts, onward and upward.

Now, if I can only take my own excellent advice...

I can smile. Just can’t do the LOL thing.
