Hmmmm. I don't know that I agree with that. I think I say good thing about people who deserve it. Yes, every person has a good quality. However, some people are just a$$holes. If you do good people will talk good about you. If you act like a jerk, people will say you are a jerk. It's your actions that count.
My XAH is a prime example. He does have one or two redeeming qualities as everyone does, and I am willing to say that about him. However, I am not going to say those one or two redeeming qualities negate all the BS he puts the people in his life through on a regular basis. I don't even mean me or my kids. Take us out of the picture and it still happens. It's who he is and I have come to accept that.
Interesting and thought provoking post.
