thank you for proving my point, persyd: you like to tell others what their problems are and you seem to think that you have the right to call your own opinion the truth. when the same treatment is applied to you, you obviously don't like it either. you are predictable, persyd, with the temperament of a spoiled child
who throws tantrums when she feels slighted. you prefer to be ruthless
because you think it is the hallmark of a warrior. you forget to
balance yourself and to learn to be patient.
your hotheadedness leads you to misunderstand things easily. i do not hate you, nor do i wish you dead. i certainly don't like you, nor do i respect you, but indeed i can still learn from you. we can all learn from everyone. it's your own shortcoming that you seem to feel "learning" implies that one has to kneel at another's feet and receive their teachings as truth. there are many kinds of learning. isn't mediation learning? isn't studying human interaction learning? i seem to have offended you by not addressing some unsolicited advice you apparently directed at me when you know nothing about me. the fact is, i wasn't even talking to you when you became upset. this is an open forum, not just your own soapbox.
i certainly won't pm you anymore - i only did it in an attempt to
answer lingering questions you have, and to keep the thread clear of
more of our argument. it seems you prefer an audience. what a surprise.
i'll leave it like this: if you have questions and you'd like to clear them up and reconcile, i'm happy to discuss them with you over pm - just to keep the forum clutter-free. consider this an attempt to create an accord with you.
