From: "Agnes" > My objectives of joining the Zenforum were very simple - enjoy peaceful, harmony and fun of sharing thoughts and ideas, give myself a peaceful time when I can stay away from stress, frustrations and/or conflicts/confrontation. > HEY EVERYONE, HAVE YOU HEARD THE NEWS? That was my objective for creating this list! I wanted to find peace, harmony, and the joy of sharing thoughts and ideas. I wanted to give myself a peaceful place where I could stay away from stress, frustrations, conflicts, and confrontation.
But then a whole bunch of self-professed Zen practitioners joined the list, and they refused to acknowledge me as their Sainted Elder, and they never agreed with my opinions, and challenged every wise proclamation, and they created conflicts about almost any little issue, and they generally ridiculed and ignored me, and they never cease to frustrate me in my goal of being recognized as The Great Wise One even on my own list. You and I must have kindred, linked spirits. Maybe I was your father or brother or son in another lifetime. It is amazing how Great Minds think alike, and I am very relieved to see that I am not the only one whose dreams and expectations have been crushed by the Unruly Zen Mob that has taken control of this list. Join me Agnes, let us seek shelter away from these Zen Ruffians. Al ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Make a clean sweep of pop-up ads. Yahoo! Companion Toolbar.
