CHAIN LETTERS - it is time for my Soap Box. They have started again and I hope I do not offend anyone with my point of view. Last week I received 7 chain style emails and although I do appreciate that others are thinking of me, just for info I do not READ or FORWARD chain style email. I don't like being threatened that the sky will fall on my head if I do not send it on to many others. I believe that the Internet and sending email on will not change the course of our lives. The Good Lord and our Guardian Angels have that in hand. I am aware that some of these are 'moving stories', and without the chain part I do enjoy the ones I accidentally read. If you must send something out to 5 or 10 people, rest assured that the one I receive will go no further. Please do not waste one of your 5 or 10 on me. Yes I do forward cute stories that move me, but not the ones that threaten I MUST send it on. Occasionally??? if I inadvertently read a good one and I can somehow remove the chain part I may forward it, only because it is cute.
On another front, our friends know we care about others, so I also do not usually return the new type of 'friend email' back to the person who sent it to me either - just to reinforce that they are a friend. I do love to hear from everyone and I love cute stories, but please do not include me in the chain style ones. OK I am off my soapbox - life is good again.
