I'm grumpy.
I don't believe in the Golden Rule anymore.

Dude. I'm not your average Mormon.
"You're on your own. And you know what you know and YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go...I'm afraid that some times you'll play lonely games too. Games you can't win 'cause you'll play against you. All Alone! Whether you'll like it or not, alone will be something you'll be quite a lot...But on you will go though the Hakken-Kraks howl...and will you succeed? Yes! You will, indeed! (98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)" Dr. Seuss

Waiting...rest of the story.
Dang... poor camel (I hate back troubles).
I've been teaching my daughter about the Golden Rule the past few weeks... and this one neighborhood rapscallion has been a real...well.. "Golden Rule breaker". She's always causing trouble 'mongst the kiddies. It broke my heart the other day to hear my four year old, holding back tears, saying, "But don't you know the golden rule???? Why are you being mean to me???" She then went on to try and explain the Golden Rule to said rapscallion. (The type of neighborhood rugrat who decides who should play with who, and when. It changes from day to day based on moods, toys and who's sharing the best treat.)
You know why it broke my heart? Because this is just the first of MANY "Golden rule breakers" she will encounter in her life. And it's JUST NOT RIGHT!!!!!!!
I had to hold back a bit when she was talking with me about it over dinner that night. "Mom, why did ***** not follow the Golden Rule? didn't her mom teach her to treat people the way YOU want to be treated?" I WANTED to tell her, "Sorry honey, some people are just JERKS!!!!!!"
