I value you that, Amanda, and am glad you do that -- I hope we all do that in the name of standing up for equality, love, justice; I feel in those instances, it's almost like leaving a vote for the opposite viewpoint for "the record" to be shown. I'm for that - because it's not attacking the author, and that kind of dialogue nurtures progressive thought. In conversation, I experience this and then I say, "wow - you're right, I should not make that assumption."

Comment section conversations like those make the community stronger and more authentic....all of that to say: please keep being you!!! Thanks for reading and sharing that - because it's something I would want to make sure and stand by and support.

Plus Mandy -- you're a pro with words...I can see you saying it in just the few amount of words - but sufficient to get the point across, respectfully and clearly. Thanks for being here...thanks for popping by. 💕
