At any stage if I ever push your buttons to hard, please feel free to politely ask me to drop it. I am not trying to upset anybody but I do have a habit if pushing people to hard. Be public if you like, private if you prefer. Your choice. Be ware if you are to subtle I may miss it so say it again.
I may get upset, but life is like that, protect yourself first and foremost.

"Protect yourself first and foremost." Boy, that has been my motto for so many years. Seems like every time I reveal a little of myself, wham! I get squashed. Tired of trying. I know sometimes it is my expectations and reactions that cause me pain but asking for accommodations at work cost me my job and my health. I was too sick to fight back.
Anyway, I enjoy your posts and find truth in them for me.
that sucks, but all we can do is our best in any given circumstance
Royce feel free to push me anytime. Your posts regularly make me rethink things in a way I hadn't considered which is welcomed and needed.
thank you
Royce, your tough love style is great, but if I am not up for it, I just skip your posts. There is no need for each person to read each and every post and then take offense to it. If for some reason someone is offended by your valiant attempts to help others, they should do the polite thing and not read or reply to your posts. I know you have many fans and help people every day, and I don’t get why people who take offense don’t just skip reading your messages. If you don’t feel comfortable with someone’s style of communication, then politely skip their posts. There is no need to criticize someone for their point of view, just keep scrolling. I hope that the “haters” will just scroll past from now on, instead of feeling compelled to comment negatively about the way that you communicate.
thank you nice of you to say
You are always too kind, to impart your experiences and opinions in this forum. I always learn something for your posts, always. You cannot please everyone all the time. If you do, then you end up pleasing no one! Please keep posting, Royce. 
that is very likely to happen I enjoy doing it
It takes a lot more than words to interrupt my happiness.
I like reading your posts
thank you nice of you to say
