Hi friends, one and all....

...hopefully, this will be a helpful piece of advice for the day....i find it helpful to

try to remember that this is Overfifties...that means that some of our members

are on medications that may sometimes make them act in an angry, hurtful

way...in a way that is not who they really are (and no, im not on any

medications myself and am healthy at the moment...but it can happen to any of

us at any time). Alcohol consumption is another factor (some people get silly

drunk but some can be quite beligerant).


...therefore, try not to take anything too personally. Instead, maybe choose to

pray for their recovery. It's a hard thing not to lash back at times...that only

makes things worse. I know from personal experience that i want to defend

myself but that doesn't help. Don't let them run you off though...it's often the

medication talking. Admin's advice is to ignore any negative comments and that

works best.


...if we all choose to ignore it completely, it will usually fizzle out in short

order...but above all, don't take anything to heart from those who are negative.

Then we will all enjoy a healthy, happy environment here.


...enjoy the day, anna
