Yes really, i would have. I was thinking of not opening the site or the thread. In case, i have to face some more of such things i would feel further terrible. Already i got a little headache with all this. But somehow i did open. (For roshanrai's spiritual thread). Only to find the three of you giving comforting words. It definately helped.
Good you are asking. We can definately do without a lot of misunderstandings. Saves a lot of -ve energy.

Things happen cuz we are all people and,hence,all flawed.
I have been afraid of groups since my teens.
I was in a group in my early teens but I was a strong person,then.
When I became numb and realized that I could not navigate a group very well,I steered clear of groups such as a sorority etc.
I acted like I didn't care but really it was fear.
One needs to know how to be a strong person in order to exist in a group.
One learns by doing what you did, stand up and ask when you need to 
Hmmm. Yes i can understand. I have to learn to do this too. Because if someone hurts i go in my shell. And mind you i have no sun, moon or asc in Cancer. And asking others...OMG thats another big prob. YOu know how it is. You have been through it. But i think i can learn too. IP: Logged |

Yes,it is always best to ask. I thought someone snubbed me. I erased a bunch of my posts on her thread lol
Then,I got my courage up and ASKED her.She had not snubbed me.
I was 100% wrong.
It takes a strong ego to ask like you did,and I did ,too.
We are making good progress  ------------------
In this world,you will have tribulation but do not fear I have overcome the world.

MoonWitch is too pretty to be a troll! Duh! Gosh, don't people have any eyes? Trolls are big and hairy and hang under bridges. They also have big hands and feet - with hair, and unclean fingernails and toes. Tooth decay is another prominent feature as well as a misshapen head. They can have a greenish or greyish hue to the skin, and large pores, as their skin care is sub-par. Trust me people. I know a lot about trolls. IP: Logged |

I would tell you that you are sweet, PS, but I wouldn't want to mess up your street-cred!!!Thank you all the same! One of my pet-peeves is being accused of something I am innocent of. I guess the only reason I stuck around was because I had a couple friends posting with me (they ended up leaving because they were also accused and didn't want to deal with it) but I was determined not to run away over it. I guess that's where my Aries stubbornness came in! I'm glad I stuck with it. I have met a few really stellar people. <3 IP: Logged |

Alphabet boy attacked me suddenly and out of nowhere right before I recommended Randall watch out for him. People who attack others on message boards (with no previous emotional build up or relationship) randomly, and with the purpose to provoke responses and fights, are trolls. Especially people who attack moderators and use disposable usernames. Um DUH??? But you all have fun with It. If this place isn't about Linda anymore, I won't be here much longer anyway. I received a few emails mentioning things and I couldn't resist checking in, but I see it's all still your usual ignorant riff raff majority, like on every other lame ass message board on the net, instead of the small group of like-minded people who came together for a purpose... that is used to be.

abcd efg has a "troll name" cuz she is from India and does not know,obviously , about troll issues.
The name was chosen for the chakras.
In my experience with her,she has been nothing other than loving and gracious.
I have to say that in her defense since the troll thing was raised ,again.
I hope you would stay at LL,Mystic Melody cuz you have a totally unique way about you that can NOT be filled by another!------------------

Don't worry about it, MW, it's the nature of the situation on message boards. It will all come to light at some point. I think I can safely say that I've proved myself to those who I respect. <3Randall, if we continue to post Linda's words, especially in situations that do not honor her, maybe... well, maybe others will learn from it and that will be what Linda would have wanted... and what all of us who believe in her poetic love for All want as well. Then it will simply be another growing experience. I'm sorry I can't help with that as much as I would like, and I'm sorry I'm not strong enough to BE that person in all situations. I need this oasis of love... and I hope to God that your new allies (and old) stand strong in love and peace and carry the true spirit of LindaLand in their hearts and words as much as possible. I wish you all strength, integrity, and peace and again, I see the same spark you see in Ami and PlutoSquared and I pray they support your heart and the true purpose of this site.
I'm not ready to let go yet... so again, I pray my community will support my words and our purpose, and that we will all become stronger in love through this rainy season.

I think you should go back to what i wrote in my two posts and re-read them with a cool head. Then you will understand what they are about. Now obviously you don't seem to be anywhere near the meanings. They have nothing to do with personal interactions. You are viewing the situation only from one point of view. What else can I say?
Secondly one cannot attack anybody when he/she is not even aware of that person being there. IP: Logged |

I think YOU should have some respect and restraint, but what we think others SHOULD is about control and is our own issue. That's not what things are supposed to be about here. Have you read Linda, or are you just another big mouth trying to jump into a message board fray? You have no understanding of what is happening in this situation, and absolutely have next to zero understanding of me, so if you aren't a troll than your personality, decision making skills, and again RESTRAINT are red flags in MY mind, so please carry on and make whatever friends will have you, but know that I find no value or interest in your opinions of me, my choices, and my words.
If that's not clear enough for you...
Do your own thing.
Find your place here if you are true.
I'm not interested in interacting with you, so if you continue to force yourself on me at some point one of us will leave.

Just a side note, but what we see on Lindaland is often just very surface-level, and we really don't know what is truly going on in someone's life--they could have just buried a son or daughter, could have heard terrible news about the health of someone they love dearly, or any number of other things. We all carry our secret pains and tragedies that drag us down at times. We should try to see past the words on the page and truly "see" the humanity behind them.  "Funny The Way It Is"
The Dave Mathews Band Lying in the park on a beautiful day
Sunshine in the grass and the children play
Sirens passing, fire engine red
Someone's house is burning down on a day like this
And evening comes, and we're hanging out
On the front step and a car goes by with the windows rolled down
And that war song is playing, "Why can't we be friends"
Someone is screaming crying in the apartment upstairs Funny the way it is, if you think about it
Somebody's going hungry, someone else is eating out
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
Somebody's heart is broken, it becomes your favorite song The way your mouth feels in your lover's kiss
Like a pretty bird on a breeze, or water to a fish
The bomb blast brings the building crashing to the floor
Hear the laughter while the children play war Funny the way it is, if you think about it
One kid walks 10 miles to school, another's dropping out
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
On a soldier's last breath, his baby's being born Standing on a bridge, watch the water passing underneath
It must have been much harder when there was no bridge, just water
Now the world is small, compared to how it used to be
With mountains and oceans and winters and rivers and stars Watch the sky, the jet plane so far out of my reach
Is there someone up there looking down on me
Boy chase a bird, so close but every time
He'll never catch her, but he can't stop trying Funny the way it is, if you think about it
One kid walks 10 miles to school, another's dropping out
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
On a soldier's last breath, his baby's being born
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
Somebody's broken heart become your favorite song
Funny the way it is, if you think about it
One kid walks 10 miles to school, another's dropping out Standing on a bridge, watch the water passing underneath
It must have been much harder when there was no bridge, just water
Now the world is small, compared to how it used to be

I think if you have taken it in that sense i.e. CONTROL then i owe all those whom i have hurt (givng the impression that i am trying to control) an apology. And since now you have openly expressed your feelings and i am quite glad that you have done so. Because now atleast i know what has angered you so deeply about my posts. Now i would like to say something from my side and i want to make it clear to you that this is not imposing on you. I am just expressing my side. I came here specially because of Linda because i have grown up reading her 2 books and sharing them with friends and relatives. Nobody in my circles use to read those back then. Secondly, i came here for sharing of knowledge and information as i saw a no of well informed persons here with gr8 ideas and perceptions. Thirdly, I believe that friends are not made they happen. And opinions i take a long time to make of ppl. Mostly i prefer not to make them at all. And last but not the least there is no question of force as i don't believe in that in interactions. Each one to his own. I have taken the trouble to mention all this is because i have hurt you and perhaps some others unknowingly. And i don't like to do that.
Henceforth be rest assured i will not interact with you. IP: Logged |

'Who are you?' said the Caterpillar.
This was not an encouraging opening for a conversation. Alice replied, rather shyly, 'I — I hardly know, sir, just at present — at least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.'
'What do you mean by that?' said the Caterpillar sternly. 'Explain yourself!'
'I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, sir' said Alice, 'because I'm not myself, you see.'
'I don't see,' said the Caterpillar.
'I'm afraid I can't put it more clearly,' Alice replied very politely, 'for I can't understand it myself to begin with; and being so many different sizes in a day is very confusing.' " ~Lewis Carrol
