I'm going on a camping trip and will be signing off the list for awhile and will regretably have to forgo the wind down of the latest skirmish. What a pity, Well, maybe I could find someone who taped the Survivors as I didn't get to watch that exercise in love and tolerance either. I'll survive, however, as much of the fun for me went out of judging others when I learned that I can only recognize a defect in someone else when I have it in myself, and worse, I get most judgmental when I see traits I am most attached to and guilty about in myself. Sort of a "what goes around comes around" in reverse. I think the shrinks call it projection or displacement or some such. For many years my pet peeve was judgmental people. I came to really thank (and laugh at) myself for having that as my main peeve, however, as it helped to recognize that I was judging myself all along, and isn't that pretty close to home for all of us?
