In modern society it is doubtful what civility truly means.
Individuals read into actions and words from different perspectives. The internet and the written nature of bulletin boards further adds to the likelihood what one writes will not be seen in the light in which it was meant because we either wrote it wrongly or it is read wrongly, but honestly.
I try to accept all are dealing with good intent.
I try to stay positive.
I ignore stuff that bugs me and try to avoid bugging others. I have gotten some remarks on guns I listed that I thought a bit snarky. I ignored them and went on.
That said I am imperfect and have a couple of times said things that are flippant or controversial. None were meant evilly though they may have been seen as that.
I hope I will be forgiven my errors as I forgive others
Rather than plea for civility, let us simple control ourselves and focus on our own actions as we cannot control anyone else’s.
