We've emphasized character. That's been a productive way to not feel meaningless, unintelligent, not relevant, and generally insignificant in big picture. That usually allows for a diversity of opinion. I don't know though, if people are hellbent on civil war, that's what they are likely to do. We had luck some years throwing the torch for the sprint to comediannes and andies. Of course, militants of all stripes have issue(s) with that. You know, really, what I love about writing groups is how un-groupy we are.
For me, as oldest in a family that loves each other a lot but nobody's speaking to anyone....
Maybe get some distance. The whole time (like three years) our mom was sick and dying I was like a fire line cat, all four paws putting out fires...the fires of, yes, that's an issue but we can't talk about that right now. Ooooooh no, don't bring that up. Ooooooo, ya know, that pushes some buttons. Desperate to forestall an analysis of reality to let mom at least die in peace.
But it's a debate, we have to talk about something.
Yeah so.
Catholics pre-printed some famous saint quotes on tee-shirts like Talk less, pray more.
Be quiet.
Working is a prayer.
Even if tonight is like Jersey Housewives on the crack of all that dominating, I'm keeping myself busy.
