Thanks for your thoughts about this. Are you the same Shelly Bowers-Roghelia from the FAAN walk? I would really like to connect with you if so. One of my daughters can really relate to yours, I think.

Your post reminded me of a saying my niece taught me, "If you see someone without a smile — give them yours!"

Comment on Mom Called Me A Bleeding Heart Liberal by Guest

Great article. I would like to add the definition of “bleeding heart liberal” that I’ve found in many conversations with my parents/grandparents over the years. Nobody is against caring. The term is meant to be derogatory due to an apparent hypocrisy. Many among us are unwilling to volunteer or give to charities as you advocate. Some of the ones I know adamantly demand others give time or money without giving their own. In government, those people who are content with using tax dollars in ways that they are not using your personal money are in a hypocritical stance. I know many as I’m sure you do. They give the rest of us a bad reputation.

Great post, Mike. Thanks for your honest perspective. This made me think about my assumptions and snap judgments as well.
