    Precisely. So how do we get from here to something like 'you are not alone'?

    You know, it's very rare that I can't find something lovely about any person who I actually interact with. (not talking about hearsay or reading about notorious characters, but direct experience ).

    This thread sounds like it would be very easy for me to post in simply by just focusing on those things. It's kind of how I roll anyway.

    John, great idea for a thread! There are times when I want to be spiritual or wise, but have just too much damn NICENESS in me. I can come here and vent all that!

    I don’t feel very wise or spiritual right now, but maybe this will kickstart that?

    OK, baby steps, I’ll use pueblo’s nice starter kit.

    You are more fun than anyone or anything I know, including bubble wrap.

    You are the most perfect you there is.

    You are enough.

    You are one of the strongest people I know.

    I have a memory and I think it was the words of the Buddha who said:

    ‘Before you open your mouth, is it necessary, is it true, and is it kind?’

    This has always stayed with me and I have tried to live up to that, but because I am human it has not always been easy!

    But I wish to say how much I appreciate you all who find time to post on this forum, thank you, one can learn so much here🌟🌟🌟

    What a nice reprieve from scandalous, accusational, controversial, and suspect threads... With the site tackling mostly conspiracies and the like, sometimes the tone tends to be very heavy...

    Good job John! This is the nicest thread I have seen all day...

    And by the way, thank you for all of the time, effort and research that you put into your posts here. It's appreciated

    OK, I will give a try...

    Every time I heard this word, make me cringe...

    When I learn English was a neutral word like , nice day , nice car and almost for feminine things like; nice Dress, nice hair, nice smile, etc.

    don't matter which country I was, it was never use between men... (Heteros) maybe only for jokes...

    Since new agers invasion, this cringe word is everywhere and for everything... (emasculating zeitgeist...)

    I remember my last Business English a few years ago, my teacher (a sexy one) talk about superlatives: pretty, beautiful and gorgeous... and I ask her:

    what about "cute" ? she say no words, just a gest like ,forget it...for a sexy woman this word make her cringe!!!

    i unterstand quickly...i was no alien on this planet...

    Have a nice day, aaaarrggggh...

    Actually, I think is should be a given that we are nice to each other, or at least tolerant, in order to have any sort of dialog in this forum.

    With so much misinformation available out there, bringing any sort of personal business gets in the way of getting at truth.

    Excellent thread and idea, John.

    …and let me say, I do think you are one of the truly great contributors here at Avalon.
