You Would Think I Would Learn?

Sometimes I just have a big mouth...even in email. One would think that by this time I would have some sense and just a tad of wisdom. But they seem to escape me for some reason.

I was trying to help a person who lives in another culture to build a website. I was just loaded with ideas. Of course, they were fine for a church in the USA, perhaps, but not for someone else. It makes me wonder why I just didn't work with design like I had offered to in the first place.

Well, I did not understand the purpose of the website which was entirely different from my own thinking so I flat out made a mess of things. I hope that guy will forgive me. I am sure I sounded like the proverbial "Ugly American." That was not my intent, but that is how I came across without a doubt. I have learned some important lessons today. I hope I remember them.
