People are taught to hate candor. I love candor and we need more of it.
Those who feel both hate and fear can be in positions where candor would be threatening. This blog understands their dilemmas.
Because others' feelings may be hurt this blog isn't always quite as candid as it could be. Honesty is always practiced.
Pursey, I, too, love candor and agree that we need more. Thank you for reading!
I like candor. I like arboretums to.
Maybe you could make arboretum a Tuesday Word sometime, to celebrate the Autumn.
Cletus, "arboretum" will be Tuesday's Word after Mlle Belle's suggestion for next Tuesday. Thanks for reading!
