manic monday
If you could have a servant come to your house every day for one hour, what would you have them do?
A servant??
I probably just would give a coffee and have a talk.
A servant!!
On the other hand... it depends what kind of servant and what time.
In the morning I would give a psychological assistant the task to get my autistic son to school. I'm sure my bloodpressure would drop soooo much, they would fear for my life. LOL!
In the afternoon I would give him the task to get my children clean their rooms.
Supervision, some help here and there.
Has your life ever been changed by an apparently random occurrence?
Yea... isn't eveything what goes on in life ad random?
I have to believe that, otherwise there's a cause for everything that happens in my life.
Either me... I'm not THAT bad!!!
or a God... why choose me for all this? Spread it out over more people, please!!!
or a force... get lost! I've had enough!!!
You're having dinner with several friends and acquaintances. They all criticize a close friend of yours (not knowing he/she is a friend). The criticism is unjustified. What would you do?
Let them talk, ventilate, throw with mud, enforce each other.
I would keep my mouth shut and try to control my bloodpressure and try to prevent my face from radiating my anger.
Then, when they're finished, I would summarise and ask if that's right.
Then I would very calm state that I'm amazed they would even consider I'm that bad a person to have such a friend.
I would tell them calmly they're completely wrong and ask them to appologise.
I've been in such a circumstance.... argghhhHHHHHHH!!!!!

Nice post! Cool heads will always prevail.
My post is here. Happy MM!
Yikes that you were in that circumstances but sounds like you did a good job dealing with it! Hope it was resolved well?
The word servant probably isn't a good one, you are correct. LOL... In thinking hopefully this person is well paid.
I've been in those situations where someone is slinging mud galore about a friend.
I handle it just like you - I let them finish and then have my say.
Take care,
Frances
Hi Lanne!
I have returned to the blogosphere and wanted to say "hi"!
Oh, and remind me to always have you around to stand up for me when others might belittle me! (#3)
BTW, Happy Belated Birthday!
