Bookworm, thank you, that made my day!
I think that nearly everyone who posts here, is well-intentioned, and not mean-spirited, even when they are being ascerbic (NOT directing this at anyone with initials PBA)…
We are an eclectic community with a diversity of opinion, and that sometimes leads to a little negativity in response by some, but for the most part, I think we are a caring group of friends who have (mostly) never met each other, except on this blog, and for us to continue to have been part of that same community for several years (certainly so in my case), says something very positive to me. I have seen many of us being helpful to others, worried about their nisyonos, davening for each other, lending a virtual shoulder to cry on, and sometimes, getting tough when tough is what was needed.
We may disagree (if we can do so without being disagreeable, that is so much better), but at the end of the day (my new favorite overused expression), we are all Klal Yisroel. May we be zochim to see Moshiach b’yameinu.
