Sweet or bitter/sour

How do you appear to others? Are you nice, warm, fuzzy - sweet? Or are you nasty, cold, hard - bitter?

What is about you/me and the effect we have on others? Do we care?

AH... do we care or not?

hmmm.... "they" say - catch more flies with honey. Of course --- do I want to catch any flies?

Bitter is good/better when the flavor of beer.

Is the dichotomy -- sweet or sour?

Does this matter??? NO REALLY... but it was a dichotomy!

Am I forgiving or ??? - what is the opposite?

NOTE: Today is many days, perhaps three months, since I started the post below... Certainly other posts are dated early January, 2020... and today is April 10, 2020 - the second day of Passover, the 2nd day of the Jewish New Year of Spring, and the day I have asserted (promised) I would write in a regular, routine, disciplined fashion. Here I go... again ! ======================================== Am I forgiving? Forgiveness is considered a good thing to do. I didn't quickly come to a word or two for its opposite. A simple search of google quickly suggested -: merciless and vindictive to be the opposite of forgiveness and a link to many, many more words/ideas that are the opposite of forgiving  . T ry this , too.  Another look might be to consider the word forgive and what are its opposites and synonyms? HERE at Word hippo are many options! AND today (as of this new writing) -- Holding a GRUDGE seems to be an opposite and one can do that by acting out and attacking ot...

So many possibilites...

Below .... labeled DATED:... you see  11/1/18 the date on that which may have been the first post. It IS the essential "Table of Contents" or "Index". Soon we will see how it is useable. And note: that early post may get edited so as to be THE one place with a list of either/or's for "consideration". A new one.. to be done momentarily: Selfish or Enriching... OR For yourself vs for others ==================================================== (DATED: 11/1/18 ----- and actual post title: THE LIST of considerations. Simple.... Easy.... Important OR NOT?   © Ken Firestein - 2018) There are many, many things to think about. And the time is always now. We have many choices and choosing is how we determine who we are. Who we, you, I am/are.... is the question for now. It is the early part of the 21st Century and politics in the United States of America and in many other places in the world seems to be at a tipping or turning point. In the US...

For myself vs for others

For example... when we consider the taxes we pay to government entities.. we think about what is the benefit, who benefits, what do I get and other things, too. I think Public Education is a good for all. An all-societal good!  Public Health is also such a good as the Judicial System (all parts) and Defense and other things are other important all-societal goods.  For Public Education there will be a vote soon in my town on a parcel tax to help bring salaries of teachers into line with other localities, AND their importance, too.... I hope. In any case a friend and I were talking about this and I noted I am 65 years old and will not have to pay that tax. My friend wondered if I had a right to vote on this matter since it will cost me nothing. Interesting point and significant as voting on this matter is done. People my age may not have, in this town and taxing area, any children or grandchildren in the schools. Such a person would get no direct and clear benefi...
