That's me, too. Not sure why, but maybe it's because I don't want to hear anyone else complain, so I'll be the one to sacrifice and put my own wants, needs and desires aside and just do what someone else has in mind. Just saying.

I like what you've written...You know, Patti ... I like what you've written but guess I'm stumbling over your last thoughts ... to provoke is to cause conflict.<br />That must stem from your past because on one hand I can agree - but I also believe that it doesn't have to cause conflict. Provocative writing can also cause wonderment and be eye-opening and thought-provoking. <br />All that to say that I like your post! :)<br />Blessings,<br />FeleciaFeleciahttp://www.alifesanctified.comnoreply@blogger.com
