Sue G, Yea, its unfortunate to say the least... I know, I've been guilty of doing that when my life was just a mess... But i learned over time that that just isn't fair to other people and I should just deal w/my issues on my own... I have a great Aries friend that taught me that... I guess we get along since I have an Aries Moon... lol

I'm not thrilled about BS's judgements on this thread, but in all fairness, saying that she's saying what she is saying is because she is a miserable, hateful or hurt person is doing the very same thing to her; making assumptions and drawing major conclusions on little information and without knowing her personally.
I don't believe EVERY time someone gets firey that it is due to misery or hatred, or having been hurt. Life is much more complicated than that. Sometimes anger is justified. Sometimes there is injustice in the world. (not saying that's the case here in this thread...but it just seems a limited way to look at people.)

The whole point we should hopefully be striving for learning (imho) is that in no circumstance do we have a right to judge someone's character or spirit or dictate their natural actions or responses to life.
Only they know their heart and reasons for what they say and do. If we want freedom to live our own Truth, with hope that others won't oppress us with their own warped perceptions of who we are, then we should grant them the same considerations that we hope could be granted to us. Otherwise, how are we any different?

I would be the first to say that I'm far from perfect myself. I don't want to come off that way, because it's not at all how I truly am, or how I think.
This all touched very close to my heart.

I thought of going back and editing out "without knowing her personally", because afterwards I thought of how you can live with someone for years and years...hell, even your family as well...people you hope know you,
well, it's one of the most disheartening things to realize even they don't and have their own subjective perceptions of who we are and what we're about.

It just hit home. I hope for no one else to have to experience stuff like that, although the realistic part of me knows that there is no escaping it entirely. I try to imagine if I were them, how it would be...and how even in my most earnest imaginings, I really have no idea, in the end only they know.
