WILL end up angry, resentful and negative.
You make a good point! Thanks for sticking up for me. I think the
biggest problem is that our back and forth is so boring. I apologize
for that. In any case it can't last long. I don't have it in me
these days. I continued through all the "you are a liar" barrage last
time because I wanted to get my thoughts out. This time I do not have
that motivation. I am just enjoying hearing from old friends,
especially since many were perplexed about me leaving TM after being
so into it for so long.
Thanks again.
