[QUOTE="tishthedish, post: 657240, member: 17103"] I am a very verbal person. Someone once told me I'm a cross between a pit bull and a poodle. (I had a perm at the time). To paraphrase, I read recently that the origin for the word sarcasm literally means "tearing flesh". When I read that, I felt like someone had punched me in the gut as I looked back on the wreckage and wounds I had caused in my wake. I still run through the caustic criticisms in my mind, but am being really conscious of keeping them in. And you know what? I can see how destructive I have been because even to [I]think[/I] those witty, but cutting retorts and searing righteous lectures and holding that hate and spite in is HURTING ME. That behavior for me has got to go. That's what I am working on very hard. I think it will be time well spent. [/QUOTE]
