335. I don't use that language

Mon Jan 30, 2012, 08:38 AM

Jan 2012

it would be unnatural to me to wish people a blessed day. Or to say God Bless You (unless someone sneezed, then it's second nature). But yeah, my parents have said numerous times throughout their lives: "You have our blessing." It's a saying without meaning too much, to be honest.

The only time I get offended is if a southerner says "Bless your heart." It's usually in response to something stupid I said.

I also do realize that people react to things differently, and where I don't find offense, other people do. I'm not trying to be argumentative, either, but I honestly, 100% do not see what the offense was in the "Have a blessed day." If you think the person is a religious kook, roll your eyes at her and move on. Otherwise, it's just a well meaning thing to say.
