My dear El...
I concur. I did not want to run you off, if that's what has happened.
Whether or not you comprehend this, I appreciate your presence on this
list, it obviously has opened up things that are within me that must be
let out...

Me too. I thought you would stand and fight, stay and play, duke it out
with either those who you perceived as siding against you (not so, not
so, whatever you may think) and not take the martyr route (and I am not
saying that as an insult, but that is how I understood your post...if
this is wrong, I've got it wrong...but that's how it looks to me)...
> but ya do what ya gotta do...
As do we all. I will miss you, and take that as you will. And no, it
does not mean I will miss having someone to "bully" because that's not
me at all, despite what you may think, El.
And from your original post...

I would like to know if by this you mean that you think you can see the
underlying meanings behind the words of people who post...because if
this is what you have done with my posts, you are mistaken, El.
And I say that so that you will know that I am not fighting with you or
against you, as I was not fighting against Isadora...
But for whatever reason, my words are misunderstood. I must have
forgotten how to write English or something, that's all I can figure.
Perhaps it's because I'm learning not to dress it up pretty.
Whatever, I hope you reconsider and stay on the list. Like Melissa
wrote, there is a lot of wisdom in what you write...
Blessings
Kath
