Ah, how about wrong? I cannot see any sort of occasion that could excuse
anyone of a "rag" on another. Sounds a lot like "Nag". That's my
perception.

Well, I for one don't want it. 

Is there no joy, fun or the juice of life and being alive in you? Your
life must be free from fun, pretty damn miserable and I feel for ya and
those around ya. But, I don't want to like ya. 

Take that up with your Creator... that someone has been you in the past,
doesn't want to be you in the present and had to work some to get clued
in. Life is good ...all the time. Inmates chant that to open services,
in one huge basso voice. That puts things into their true perspectives.
Even when it all goes completely in the bucket. 

It's merely a choice, to be miserable or to grab some fun and joy in the
middle of all the crap and go with it for the sake of those you claim to
love, if not just for yourself. I screwed the pooch in like fashion and
I can tell you, it wasn't worth it. Not one darned bit, over a bunch of
"shoulds" and expectations of others. 

I hope for your sake that you chose the latter as tomorrow is not
promised. Suppose this rant was the last thing you did. Would you be
proud? Would it have been worth it? I don't think so. How about we both
loosen up and agree that there is middle ground to both our behaviors
and let it go like that? I'll behave... some. Ric
