When liars, sh*t-heads, and a**-holes muck up a public discussion forum it is because they are NOT being ignored.

No need to leave because of one person. PLEASE STOP COMMUNICATING AND REACTING TO ONE ANOTHER. GIVE IT UP!

We fixed signs need to learn to let go sometimes.

The wisdom of the stars is there for all, if only they would ask.

Not communicating as you've been doing for the past couple of days wouldnt mean you're avoiding the situation.

Has the chaos even been accepted?

It's clear from Lotusheartone's post in this thread that she interpreted the first post to be about her. Her words, "I love you TOO", were written as if in response to something posted by "beebuddy", but nothing was said to her or about her. She seems a little bit paranoid to say the least.

I think we all react when we feel that someone has misjudged us, hurt or threatened our sense of pride. I think when this happens, it helps to take some time to first let the emotions calm down, then a bit later-once this is done- try and understand where that person was coming from, why they were feeling that way- perhaps they were having a bad day- etc. Deep down we are all the same really. And someone, somewhere has felt the same as you have; experienced the same trials and tribulations. It is much better to confront that person calmly, rationally and diplomatically.

I know that when I feel angry at someone, it eats away at me. I loose sleep over it. Only when I resolve the issue is the weight lifted.

God knows I do my share of argueing! And I'm SO tired of it. It isn't healthy. I've got a love-hate relationship with my mother; I'm always reacting (and definetly over-reacting) to her judgements and criticism. And when I do, it hurts me. There was a time when I cut myself off from my family- during those days my life felt as though it were shrouded in darkness.

I now believe that the source of the majority of my problems has been my ego. Anyway- I'm fed up with fighting- it literally makes me sick. And I think Linda was right when she wrote about the power of sound and words in her book. It has been shown that even plants react to sound.

Wish me the best for my quest- I am actually going to try and stop reacting now-whenever I feel someone critisizes me or brings me down....I'll need it!

How are you both?

I understand the sentiment behind your writings and I listened to what you said......I feel it is sound advice.

Having said that I am so glad I DID speak out, especially for the likes of Pixie and Fayte......true friends are valuable and these women have rocked my world!! I wouldnt sit by on the sidelines, just watching. Even if I hadnt been involved, I would have been up there for them.....as have Pixie and Fayte for me!!

It was great to get the support of the men too, AG and MM have been awesome!!

If anyone hurts my family and friends I am always gonna defend, moreso now I am a Mammy!!

Kiwigirl, how are you, and thanks for taking the time to support, another Scorpio sister....we seem to be growing in number - the 8th sign - strength in numbers, I feel this is part of my karma - thanks again lovely, its really appreciated.

And to all who sail in this at times stormy vessel........

Love and light
