If you are referring to me, I was here talking to Rhoni about a book when this all began. I was surprised by the unkind remarks and decided to ask first for clarification and when I understood, then I said something.

If you don't have a bone in the fight, why have you chosen to enter the fray? I'm sorry, but I don't understand some of you women and your attitudes. You seem to enjoy blowing things up all out of proportion to their intent and then using them to attack others.

"Too many people waste valuable time and precious resources wondering what other people are thinking, intending, or doing. Rather than just asking them for clarification, they make assumptions...People always imagine the worst when they don't know what is true... Consider the difference when you know all the facts--the actual facts--about a situation, person, or opportunity. Then you can make decisions, take actions, [and form opinions] on the basis of what is real rather than what you are making up." - Jack Canfield

I decided to enter the fray because what was said was mean and I thought Rhoni could use a little bit of defending. She was already hurting. Nothing more than that. I'm going to bed. If someone would have apologized a whole lot of pages ago, this would be over looooooong ago. End of story. Goodnight.

And some people only show up in threads when they see an opportunity they can't resist to belittle Rhoni

Wonder if Charlie will ever defend me with such chivalry!

I don't have a horse in this race, but ILG has been posting about the seriousness of her husband's condition. This is an extraordinary difficult time for her. I don't think your remarks were very well timed. I realize that I am setting myself up for an attack, but right now I believe we should all be praying especially hard for ILG and her family. You can say this is giving "her a pass" but how many others here have been "given passes" throughout the years?
