I have learned a lot on LL from the great leaders on here with great character such as Lalalinda, Randall and IQ who are my top three LL role models.
I could not have had the limited success I have now without learning what I did from them.
I say this to say that I appreciated when someone apologized to me, recently.I have apologized many times on here. One time, before I became a Mod, I attacked a girl because she really annoyed me. I asked her to forgive me on LL and we became friends. I have lost my temper on here and had to apologize because I was wrong. I have gotten angry and had to apologize because I was wrong not to handle it better. I think it is very low character to snipe someone and act nasty and then slink around behind someone and expect them to see that as an apology. If you want to say you are sorry to someone, have the bollas to do it. It is earthworm behavior to try to suck up to someone you insulted and expect that to stand in lieu of an apology which takes character. I want to develop my character. That is what makes you a person. If not, you are nothing.

Everyone is gonna screw up. That makes you human and that makes you someone who is trying. I learned that from Randall because I was punished when I made any small mistake, as a child.
I froze because the punishment hurt so much. I did not make many mistakes because I took few risks but I was very lonely and very locked in.
On LL, I learned that I could make mistakes as that was allowed in one's growth. I had to stand up and say I was sorry because that is part of growth, too. They both are  ------------------

Hey now, don't insult the earthworm! That's one of my totems lol.My home forum that I go to is a free for all kind of place. Anyone can say anything without threat of ban. However, this annoys me sometimes because there is a member who cries like a baby if someone mirrors his atrocious behavior. I think a person should be willing to accept the consequences of their actions and stand behind their words, instead of whining about how it's unfair when they can't stand the intensity of what they're messing with. At this point, I have to avoid this person because the minute I let loose on him, he will start crying foul play for being intellectually bested. Endless cycle of drama lol. IP: Logged |

I was on one Forum for over a year with no moderation and really hard core people.
I learned a lot from it.I was really surprised by many things and one was how alike we all are even the "bad" people out there Humans kind of resonate to the same things--carrying yourself with respect, yet respecting others, hard work, a humble spirit( not weak, humble) etc
I will tell you what they hated the most--a fake.
They hated a person who had an aggrandized view of herself i.e a big fake. They would cut this kind of person to pieces until she was shredded. When I see these fake "enlightened" people, I feel the same way ------------------

Same here about people underestimating me. See, I choose to be cordial. If someone repeatedly offends me, even after I ask them to stop, or treats me like scum, I can be difficult to deal with.I prefer not to be that way and have lightened up over the years as to where and how I lose my temper. Even now, I'm still easing up lol. IP: Logged |

Character is created by being humble and serving. To rise in stature, one must reach down low. If pride goeth before a fall, then humility is the brick and mortar of resiliency. IP: Logged |

I like it! Ami Anne - There's that quote I posted in the quotes thread. That's one of my favorites.
One time after I wrote a very nice apology to a woman and it was rejected. I was just looking around. I do that a lot anyway.
A psychologist said that an apology should have three parts. Admit that you were wrong
Make it clear that you regret hurting them
Find out what you can do to make it better. My apology that I wrote before reading that did contain all three parts, yet was rejected. Which, kind of goes along with that forgiveness quote.  I love it when things tie together. I find facing things head on is best and builds character. Happy that you could do that! I don't like fighting though it may not always seem like it.
