As I See It

I am not one hesitant to speak my mind
When I see egregious wrong-doing
But trying to destroy another person
Is not something I see myself doing.

Most people can do that without any help at all ......

I certainly hope so, Rico, but a reminder might help someone.

I always give them a part of my mind; it is a wonder I have any of it left for me.

I try my best to hold my tongue, but sometimes it slips right away from my fingers.

Perfect! Es Perfecto! ... And after all, 'destroying another person' would constitute even more 'egregious wrongdoing!' Kudos, gw

Yes, it would be, gw, and I see myself as a builder-upper, not a tearer-downer!
