If you don’t mind . . . I’d rather wait for JustBe’s explanation . . . if there is one . . . instead of going by another’s interpretation. Even so . . . the two statements . . . yours and his . . . seem to have very little . . . if anything . . . in common.

I am saddened that you perhaps missed opportunities that you had in front of you at one time . . . and probably still do . . . if the right effort and attitude were employed. Initially I only wished you the best . . . and still do. Blaming me for everything is a safe route. I do not take it personally. I’ve been through it with my own issues . . . and have blamed entities MUCH greater than I for my own shortcomings. It always turned out to be only a momentary fix.

I don’t know HOW many times I have heard the gambit . . . “I am this way because YoU made me that way.” One can hear offshoots everywhere . . . it’s almost like a living entity . . . everyone seems to want to blame someone else for what they are or what they do. Again . . . it’s safe.

It’s always nice to blame someone else for something that you cannot do. It’s as old as mankind itself . . . and as normal as it can be. I just wish it had gone another way for you. I truly believe . . . you would have been VERY happy if it had.

Be well.

I lost count on the amount of assumptions you made in this post. I think you are projection heavily here. I'm happy and healthy. Thank you. I have concerns about you though. Be well yourself.

My response to JustBe (a female btw) was just a bit of humour. It sounded like a song lyrics to me, so I added the next line. Why not have a go, it's good to not be so serious all the time.

Are you still holding a grudge against me because I wouldn't take your advice regarding tinnitus. That's not healthy. Try and let it go. I'm just a random on a forum.

Thank you.

You just substantiated everything I said in the previous post. I couldn't not have done a better job myself. I love the armchair psychologist touch. It ties right in to blaming others.

You are steadfast in your resilience. You are to be commended for that.

You are funny.

Resistance to Zorkchop is futile I suppose.

Go on then, you have the last word. I can handle it.

Best wishes to you.

Peace.

I just about came back in immediately after I put in that last post because I wanted to edit it and put in a line or two on sincerely thanking you. I could not give great examples of what I am saying in some of my posts without people such as you responding to them. I couldn't make up the replies. It's just not the way I look at things.

I have actually considered beginning a thread on just this dance-step response . . . as well as other common methods of playing dodgeball. I still might.

You portrayed the very first precept I was going to bring up in that thread . . . way before you wrote your last few entries. You could not have indulged in better timing.

I could not enter some of the posts I put in without such input.

Thanks again.

JustBe,

I would like to understand what your statement means as well.

Please enlighten us.

This resistance is difficult enough to deal with when confronting just the mental / emotional stances of an individual.

It is a very slow process.

Zork,

Wise words. Probably gained through experience of being the student and/or the Master.

Respect.
