That is so very true Jenna and very irritating/annoying to other people when you don’t react with words….Silence is powerful! Enjoyed this…Debx

Hi Deb. Seems like forever since I've been around. (out of town for a week) I've always felt the best way to annoy someone is to ignore them. Unfortunately, that doesn't always work. Thanks for your insightful comments.

Adam had free will. They both snubbed God. Thanks for the visit.

Silence is gold, ranting and yelling increases hate.

Great one liner Jenna, the cold shoulder is indeed a potent, passive aggressive technique, ranting and raging can be counter productive and may worsen the situation, all the best in contest, cheers David

Thanks, David. I like things settled sooner rather than later. Yell at me but don’t clam up!
