All I ask is that everyone remember that passions are running very high and hearts are aflame. It is so easy to hurt and be hurt right now. (Paul, you know I love you as a friend, I know the real you and I know how much you love Joni, but you've got to take that biting edge off of some of those comments, please?)
People have come and go on this list for many years. Some come back and some do not. Everyone has to remember that people are here because of their love for Joni Mitchell. When a person leaves, they are just as grieved at leaving their Joni brothers and sisters as they are grieved about the actual incident which led up to their departure. It really hurts. Now is not a time for anyone to make any major judgments or decisions about anything. There is too much going on emotionally. It's the same wisdom one gives when someone else is grieving over the loss of a loved one. Major decisions should be put on hold until the person is in a right frame of mind to weigh the consequences of their decision. Slow down and breathe. Everything is going to be all right. We have "the bond." Never forget that. Sherelle
