My advice would be to read me like you would read anyone else. There is always more at work than what you see, and what you are shown may not necessarily be all there is.

I never intend to come off as rude, though once upon a time, I likely did so deliberately. I have a way of wording things without consideration for others. It is something I will work on.

[A tiny step for the good of things. What an accomplishment.]
