חברים והמלחמה

Jan 12, 2009 19:56

המצב הפוליטי הנוכחי מכריח אותי למתוח את יכולת האמפתיה שלי די הרבה. יש לי חברים בעלי מגוון די רחב של עמדות פוליטיות. אני משתדלת שלא להתווכח על זה עם אנשים. או בכלל להכנס לנושא. אין טעם. אני מנסה להיות אמפתית לגבי עמדות של אנשים. אני משקיעה את האנרגיה ואת הלב בלשים בצד את זה שבא לי לצרוח "איך אתם יכולים להגיד כזה דבר, ולמה לעזאזל אתם אומרים אותו לי ( Read more... )

Hey dear :)

Sorry about the Hebrew, I was just bitching about things in Israel, didn't seem relevant to people outside it.

No worries, you're perfectly within your rights to blog in your own language, silly! :)

Besides, I found an online translation thing that gave me sort of an idea of what was being said. :D

Just glad to see you back!

LOL!

So what did it say I said?

I once had to write a report for work, using existing materials. Some of which were in Arabic. And I was forced to try to get information out of them using online translators. It work well enough, though it kept getting something wrong, and I got whole pages of things like "The rate of males who propaganda propaganda propaganda graduate from high school propaganda propaganda propaganda". That was really odd. :D

Um..... well it wasn't an EXACT translation. But basically what I got out of it was that you're concerned about the situation in Israel (with good reason) and you have a lot of friends that are all over the map politically and you don't necessarily understand some of the view points being held, but you respect them.

Thanks for bothering to translate!

It was more - "Grrr, don't mainstream people realize not every single person thinks like them?". I am told that it's not just mainstream people, but generally people. :)

LOL

I see Google doesn't recognize the word "empathy".

I love - "the detective side of the heart that comes to me to scream". I love that. It's this weird private detective guy who pays someone in the slums to allow him to come over and just scream.

The "a wine trader value of mutual respect" bit just puzzles me.

Yay! :-)

Yes, some of it most decidedly baffled me.... but I THINK it gave me a basic idea of what you meant. LOL

You wine trader of mutual respect you. ;)
