Some Compassion For The Shills -- PLEASE As far as shills go, like most I have been frustrated, irritated and otherwise offended. Then I found out about this from a friend in the medical field that changed my perspective: There is a 12-18 month waiting list to get that surgery to have a belly button window installed so that they can see out. Immediately, my heart sank. I had a wave of compassion I cannot describe and tried to relate to this horrible condition known as Colonary Myopathy.  It became immediately clear that I too would most likely be incorrigible and come off as a loser if my total view on life was obstructed that way. Shills, my heart goes out to you. Now I fully realize that not everyone will share my compassion for those with such a crippling and debilitating condition. Empathy is difficult when the ugliness is at a fever pitch and the associated back pain they experience is unmanageable. But geez, it’s the holidays… So for those who CAN muster some empathy but simply don’t know how to express it, you are more than welcome to share this post in any comment to let the shills know your heart goes out to them as well during this special time of the year. Merry Christmas shills! And I pray for your successful surgery and a speedy recovery! WWG1WGA
