In the course of saying what we think, it is not necessary to lose empathy or compassion for the other. Insensitivity only reveals our own inabilities to deal with the world around us. My personal preference is to view the source of the communication before I take it to heart. The beauty of this forum is we can go back and historically see who the poster is and what the nature of their posts have been in the past.

Kindness is it's own reward.
