Comment to connect

We comment all the time. We comment to learn, sometimes from people on the other side of the world. We comment to express our opinions about what has been written. We comment to connect, and to connect we tell stories  and share our thinking.

A good comment can be a beginning of a new friendship.

I hope with my readers' comments, I can build a network of friends.

Here are some of my expectations when you write comments on my posts:

• Be polite, friendly, and encouraging.
• If you disagree, don’t be rude about it; give helpful feedback.
• Keep your comment on topic and make sense. Say something about the original post.
• Don’t say random stuff or get really silly.
• Avoid texting shortcuts like u for you and l8r for later, and only use one emoticon if you need to.
• I welcome any question at the end to keep the conversation going.

​
I will treat your comments as a gift. So please be polite, interested and encouraging.


​Thank you!
