I hate it when the guy at McDonald's acts like I'm lying when I say I don't want whipped cream. He asks, "You, don't want whipped cream?" but his eyes say, "You know you want this whipped cream".
I am indebted to all those who lay down their lives on the field of battle to protect the rights that I often take for granted. I don't say that be flippant but to remind myself that the freedoms, I so blithely enjoy are not free. Originally posted Memorial Day 2013
When someone you don't know makes assumptions about your character, remember the only yardstick they have to measure by is their own behavior in a similar situation.
