T O P I C R E V I E WVoix_de_la_MerThis isn't for sympathy, attention, or even for response (response is of course welcome, but I am not expecting or asking for it).It may not make a lot of sense.But, I just want to apologise to anyone on Lindaland that I may have upset.There isn't a bone in my body that wishes to hurt another human being, but I am I not yet wise enough to always prevent this happening - that is a flaw that I accept, and am very much working on.So, without discussion, or excuse, if I have upset or hurt you in anyway, I just want to say sorry. I have no defense other than my ignorance, which I will endeavour harder to fix.LEXX When I was a computer and internet newbie in March 2005, I made so many netiquette mistakes. I feel I have made great progress in learning how to get along with the wide diversity of folks I have met/encountered online.I feel that one important thing is to never assume when communicating online.Ask for clarification! We do not have those physical cues, the body language, and tone of voice when communicating by text only.Blessings and Love to you Voix_de_la_Mer ------------------~I remember, therefore I am immortal~LEXX~The present time is theirs, but the future is mine.~Никола Тесла}><}}('>~Voix_de_la_MerThank you Lexx.Yes, it is difficult to portary yourself accurately with only words on a screen, and even harder to interpret others.I gain so much information from people's faces.But I guess this is just another area to grow, which can never be a bad thing.juniperbYou`re right Voice, it doesn `t make much sense I suggest much as lexx did, feel your way around, get to know the histories, share only the info you don`t want to bite you in the butt later.....then enjoy the forums, people and yours-elf ! btw have you read any of Linda`s work yet?juni------------------Submit to Love without thinking, as the sun rose this morning recklessly, extinguishing our star-candled minds.Rumi Voix_de_la_MerSorry Juniper,It's based partially on a feeling, and some other stuff that it would be disrespctful to go into.I know many people speak out when they are upset, but there are many that don't, so I guess I'm trying to cover all, and hope that those this applies to see it.I haven't the cash to buy any new books yet, but I should do in a couple of weeks, and Linda is top of my list juniperbGenerally you can buy Linda`s books at ebay for a song.

I suggest much as lexx did, feel your way around, get to know the histories, share only the info you don`t want to bite you in the butt later.....then enjoy the forums, people and yours-elf !
btw have you read any of Linda`s work yet?

It's based partially on a feeling, and some other stuff that it would be disrespctful to go into.
I know many people speak out when they are upset, but there are many that don't, so I guess I'm trying to cover all, and hope that those this applies to see it.
I haven't the cash to buy any new books yet, but I should do in a couple of weeks, and Linda is top of my list
No worries, we`re all family here and like families, someone is bound to get offended at one time or another. If you did, I`m sure they are smart or kind enough to see your sincerety and let it go
