I do know the difference, lightening
is to make something lighter, a load or
color of fabric or hair or such, cheer up, refresh, alleviate etc.
While “lightning is a sudden
electrostatic discharge during an electrical storm between electrically charged
regions of a cloud (called intra-cloud or IC)”; thanks Wikipedia + my own brain, ha.
So what possesses me to be so
grammatically incorrect on a too regular basis?
There is no grammatical word
correct on my blogger page where I have been writing when on my notebook, only
abc for spelling, which we all know that does not pick up on similar words used
improperly, in other words just spelling counts.
And here’s the rub, as long
as I spell words correctly it gives me a pass.
Sure at this point in my life
and writings so voraciously I should know better than I do.
It does appear that I do, but
at times way too late, months or weeks later, even one time years later I did
go back and correct a BIG mistake!
Sadly, if I do not appear to
know when I publish of course it is mine, and only my responsibility.
Let’s face the “hack” name
for my type of writing is right on target!
Although, if I was a pro
getting paid I might have an editor, so many writer’s, that are or were famous have been on
occasion grammatically challenged so many you would be shocked there are some that are
Dyslexic or have other learning difficulties, imagine how much fun his/her word
program or editor had with his/her endeavors, and they were/are so successfully published!
Agatha Christie and Stephen
J. Cannell just to name two; twenty-five are listed at the site/link above.
I’m not making excuses, and
don’t think for one minute I believe that I am in either of those incredible
people’s league, but since I am no where near them, cut me some slack please
and I will try and be more careful, okay?
And no I have never been
diagnosed with any learning disorders, except perhaps admitting I goofed sooner
or maybe no one noticed I had one? I do know that MS has an affect on cognitive issues.
On that note of once again
not happy with my own writing and thankful none of you outright say anything,
how polite of all of you really, allow me to be the very first to wish all of
you a very happy good night and ask you all to kindly count all your blessings
and share all your overages with you know whom and we will too!
And next time please be here
or be square, ya hear!
PS This was for all you
grammar Nazis out there! Be kind to the lesser than you.
