Hello, Myoslnev here.

Hi. I thought I might try out this forum for a while. I will see if I would like to stay. In my life, I often don't realize how I come across to people. When I get excited, I tend to take over the conversation. I don't have this problem online, and I can practice my honesty online.

It is easier to be honest when you are not facing the person you are speaking with. If you look at my religion title, you will see that it says "Soto Zen". Please, do not take that to mean all sorts of things. It is easy to take a label and run with it, but I trust you people. When I say "Soto Zen" I mean that I simply sit, that I practice kindness towards everything.

Sitting and practicing kindness. This is my honest way.

Welcome..!

Are we to understand that you find practicing honesty in real life hard? Lying can be easy, but it can also become a habit in no time at all, so think before you lie is my motto.

No, not at all. Sorry, I should have been clearer. I mean, being true to myself. Not putting up a front. The persona.

Hi.

Hiya

This forum is smaller than I'm used to. It's why I like it a lot. However, I can't see a reason why you wouldn't want to stay.

In my life, I often don't realize how I come across to people. When I get excited, I tend to take over the conversation. I don't have this problem online, and I can practice my honesty online.

I can get that way too, but only over certain things. Religion being one of them.

Honesty. Hmmm. Honour. Integrity. Mighty powerful words. Words that I try to live by...but have learnt that to get anywhere in my job (working for a city) they mean nothing. So, I'm true to myself and coworkers and others outside of work. Management however, can kiss my rosy red butt cheeks...*laffin*
