There are two kinds of people in the world...
I've always thought of myself as being open.. nonjudgmental...accepting of all...
Hogwash.
I realize now that I divide the world into two groups of people: those who know the difference between your and you're, and those who do not.
I just sent an e-mail to a group of folks. I re-read it, AFTER I'd sent it.
There it was.
In black and white
"...you're brain is functioning"
I immediately sent out a retraction. Surely people wouldn't put me in the "don't know" group, but I had to be positive.
My fear told the tale. I didn't want to be one of them.
Now I feel like I need to send apologies to all the other people whom I've put in the "don't know" group. Maybe.... just maybe.... they, too, had made a mistake.
I think that this lesson may have long-reaching consequences. We'll see.
