Default Re: Please don't go...take a break instead !

Hey !

It's me, checking in. Thanks for the replies to the thread and your points of view.

It seems in the intervening hours, where I read my book, had a glass of wine...which I rarely do quietly in the evenings, and then watched Point Break (surf's up Dude!) yet another member has been banned. Sorry to see you go DragonBreath. Thanks for posting on my thread. I hope you'll come back after a break

Of course, these people aren't dying nor (I hope, but I couldn't prove it) is FEMA knocking on their doors and carting them off one by one or eventually it will just be the cat and the goldfish left at Avalon - (now that would be an interesting plotline development)

So we shouldn't mourn their passing as fallen comrades...but I am sad to see them go.

Yes, I'm one of those foolish people who has a secret nasty hope that people one day might just get along with one another. Not like each other necessarily, wooo, nooooo... but you know, just say pass the salt please.

So, yeah... I've tuned into Avalon this past month to, you know, 'help out' because I think anything that gets people talking and thinking about their lives and their relationships to total strangers (which is the rest of the planet btw!) is no bad thing.

If some one puts me in the ground (verbally or otherwise) for that alarming tendency I have to want people to get along. well, a leopard can't change it's spots. I'm stuck, that's the way I am. don't matter if those ain't your spots, you can't change yours neither!

So I'm not going to tell you this is right or that is. I'm not going to give you links to UNMISSABLE EVIDENCE OF MICE ON MARS. I can not give you any facts, all I can give you is my opinion.

(interestingly, my first ever thread posted started off with 'I love this site'. it was a positive affirmation and I meant it...but no one read the thread. Too boring of course What I needed was capital letters or something you could NOT afford NOT to read! Isn't that just like the papers? Of course bad news sells, so why not negative news or drama on a forum?? that's got to be heaps better than 'I think we're all one and should drink camomile tea'. I can tell you from my lilmited experience of this forum, that won't get you a hundred views !)

It's my opinion that there is a lot of stuff we can do nothing about, and a lot of stuff that we can do a lot about.

Can you fix that dripping tap ? You betcha. Can you be nice to someone? You betcha. can you be horrid? Of course.

Can you say what's going to happen on a given date in the future? Well, why not have a shot, use your intuition, channel something, it might work. I'd be interested, and if the prediction came true I'd be even more interested.

But there's little I can do to control the outcome of those events. there is much I can do when communicating with other people.

Time on this earth is short and precious. I hope when our time is over and we look back, we will think that we used our time as best as we could.

I for one, will be glad I saw Point Break tonight (and I never even realised that was Patrick Swayzee till the end of the movie!).

peace n love

K

Awesome dudes !!
