I am never what one might describe as angry when I post on these forums ~ aside from one incident maybe five years ago. I find it it quite thought provoking and calming ~ and often amusing ~ to participate here.
This lack of anger on my part is what underpins my unflappable, heart-of-the-matter, and mostly not-taking-the-abuse-bait style, I would say. Not being angry is what enables me to be clear and to get to the heart of the matter.
As Landisqueen170 - a vocal critic of mine, and whose criticism I welcome and always meet head on - said recently: "[FMF is] an intelligent, articulate poster who often gives much food for thought". This is made possible by me simply not being angry when I engage people. 😉
