Reaching out to Kenngo...

[Tacenda]

I am reaching out to Kenngo. I tried to PM you but your messages are full or you're not accepting any. 

I did think Compton was part of it at first without getting all the facts. For all I know they are over the fire station. I thought of doing some detective work.

And I do remember when you mentioned your father, that's how I thought you did have a family member in law enforcement. 

I hate how your posts to me are garnering negative feedback from others.

I do think having friends on this discussion board is more real life, and I'm friends with a couple of people on FB. 

I am going through a tough time for the last several years of not having any close friends, people on this board to me are filling in where that space is so empty right now.

I do and say things that are wrong, but do you not forgive? I don't want someone to say what I did was right, just give me some relief and move on, not keep hounding me about it.

When I mentioned a noose I was joking. 

Put me on ignore so you don't read my posts. Or don't put me on ignore, whatever. 

We do go back a ways, but maybe you've forgotten some conversations. I understand that to some I am a troll because of my comments about the church. But to my knowledge I don't think I've been negative about a person on the board. But maybe through my comments it feels like that. 

Take care and have a good day, truce?

Now to the rest of you..

Our words don't always come out well on this board. Kenngo is probably right I mistook his words as being hostile a few times. And maybe they weren't as much as I thought.

I hope we can just forget about the exchanges and move on. I really enjoy this board. I read over some others, such as Mormon Hub, it's quite similar but it's not the same. 

I hope I will learn from my mistakes and take way more time before posting.

Since the other thread got closed and this one likely will soon, I am going to take advantage of the chanceand post before I have resolved anything in my mind.

I am thinking on the feedback I got (which I appreciate) and examining if there is a possible better way of making what I feel are important points and/or corrections at times as well as integrating what others post so that the sum does not become something not meant by our individual efforts.

Sorry for not really saying anything, but didn't want people to think I was ignoring their constructive criticisms.

Tacenda, no one who post on such sites would ever mistake you for a troll, or just someone who does nothing but "drive by" posts. Issues about Faith and Church can easily turn into passionate posts that hurt others. Even though such issues of Faith in God and the Church should lead us all to be long-suffering, gentle and kind to all, even those who disagree with us, if not more kind to those who disagree with us. However, we are all flawed, and too often our flaws are peppered throughout our comments. Be of good cheer, be forgiving, and pray that everyone else does the same. 

I am sorry for hurt feelings, or hurtful remarks that have caused any pain.

You're a good person, Tacenda and I respect you for taking the high road, admitting mistakes or misunderstandings and reaching out to make peace with Kenngo.  

Hopefully he will respond and do the same and work it out with you (here or in private).

You're family, Tacenda.  This board just wouldn't be the same without you and your genteel, honest comments.  In my book you are O.K.

Tacenda, you are kind to think of others, their feelings, and the general good will here.  Don't take things too personally - this is an anonymous board and we don't know what is going on in the lives of others; we don't know the pressures they have, the stress they are under, or their trials.  There will be times when some of us vent inappropriately because it is just simply a place to vent.  On the other hand, it is just too easy to misinterpret what others say.  

I had a friend once whom I admired for her gift of never taking things personally.  She just seemed to sail through daily interactions without ever a cross word with another.  Yet, I suspect that even she might have the occasional disagreement in this type of format - we lack too many social cues when talking to a screen with typed words.  

I hope you have  great day.  As another friend would say, you are good people.
