Understanding Dave
Dave was reading some of his archived posts from last year and made some comments. I read one about his rambling list of interesting people. Note the follow phrase:
"And by the way, just because people add bullshit doesn't make them unworthy of being friends. Just thought I should mention that. I wouldn't believe everything I said, for example. I screw up sometimes, and often shoot from the hip. We are who we are."
That's true about everyone, self included. It's valuable to remember that when confronted with a personality you don't like or understand. They are different. Seek first to understand.
