Ann, your ability to soothe the rents and tears is heartwarming. Emily, can I tell you I am your biggest fan without you getting uncomfortable? You have the sensibility of a great artist and the soul of a composer. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <awoelflebater@...> wrote: ---In fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com, <sharelong60@...> wrote: yawn again...

Your alleged devotion to authenticity and your opinions of me also imo are both results of your childhood. And that's all I'm going to say.

I think your actual motivations for the way you respond to people are quite different from what you claim. I think most of your behavior on FFL is carefully tailored to attempt to make people think highly of you. The problem is that when your control slips, you show a completely different face. That's all I'll say for now, except to note that the quality in people I value most highly is authenticity, and the quality I most despise is lack of same. An inauthentic pose of virtue, as far as I'm concerned, is far more reprehensible than an authentic, let-it-all-hang-out display of vice. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <sharelong60@...> wrote: Judy, a way more interesting question imho is why do you even care what I think turq thinks. Should I even feed your strange interest by answering you? What the heck: I doubt turq thinks about me much. Probably he hasn't changed his mind. But so what? See, I think in your mind that means I should be mean to him and not say thanks for a post I like, etc. But for me it's important to tell people when I like their posts. It's also important for me to disagree with people who are ganging up on someone. I'm sure there's a karmic reason but I don't need to figure it out for now. It feels right when I do both and that's why I do them.
