What’s the one thing you hope other people never say about you?
My answer to this prompt is:
The one thing that I hope I never hear anyone say about me is that I am uncaring. I do care. I am passionate about people and I try to always stretch out to help someone else who is worse off than me. It may not be money that I help with, but it is a caring attitude that I try to live and extend to others.
I don’t say it often, but I think it, treat others as you would have others treat you. This is a very big sentence with a huge impact. It can carry from you to the next to the next. The world could be a better place, if we all gave a few minutes to see what we can do or how we can help our neighbor or friend or family.
I don’t do this because I am trying to get a reward, or to hear a thank-you. I do it because it is the right thing to do. I want to go to my grave, knowing that some will at least say, she was a good caring woman. She gave of herself, then I can rest in eternal peace.

Beautiful! But of course, we all know you are a caring person. You go beyond what many would do. It is the Lord in you that has created you this way and gives you this desire. But you have learned to respond to Him as well. God bless you, Terry. You will receive a reward even though you are not looking for one, though it may not be until you get to heaven. Those rewards are the best ones, though, and well worth waiting for.

Terry, where have you got this strange thoughts from. You know that everyone know that you’re caring, considerate and heartwarming. Nobody is going to say that you didn’t care about others.
Woman, you have given up yourself and your live for everybody around you and especially Al.
Stop doing this to yourself. And you know yourself that it will never happen, so why ????
What I don’t want people to say about me??? She hasn’t lived.

Okay, but you know better than that … yourself. Sorry, my language – just tell them to … f*** off and mind their own business. Tell them that you will swap with them for a day. People that say things like that have a sad life and are very sad people.
