Re: Trouble makers on Avalon
...Hmmmmmmm...I found this thread to be a fascinating exchange of energy.
I was drawn to the "trouble", and wondered, "certainly NOT!...not HERE!" Of course, I was introduced to the persona "King Lear", at the outset, and although it possibly could have waited several lifetimes...my intent suddenly included researching this person. Always the responsible researcher, I stayed the course, and integrated everything others who were drawn to this thread, had to say. Ultimately, King Lear himself, stood up to this accusation. I found his argument flawless, and infinitely respectful. To their credit, the owner of the feelings which were perhaps stretched by King Lear, in (an)other thread(s), acquiesced...and they admitted to the possibility that King Lear was perhaps just bitingly critical...and not necessarily prejudiced.
This thread was a beautiful economy of effort. Within these posts, the foundations of of Avalon, at least in my expectations, is revealed. Truth is ultimately self-evident...and its discovery requires that those who search for it, not only remain unbiased in their judgment, but that they also release their "identity". King Lear, and his accuser, each appear to have "lost" a bit of their "identities". The accuser loses a tendency to personalize "cynical criticism" (this phrase is the best I can do with my research, so far), and King Lear loses one member of a nebulous group he has admitted bias towards (ufo people, and others). A relationship has been constructed...and for better or worse, it will yield its influence on the future. I see nothing but respect for learning, on the part of both...and I suspect that King or chattel, this relationship will not be immediately dismissed.
There are many others who have been compelled to read this post, and it is my hope that they did not miss this central drama. There is not a luxury of time to run away, and come back later to see if things "fit". I am proud of both of you...for, at the very least, revealing to me spirits distinguishable from the crowd.
