well. i can see why you have strong feelings about that distinction...
and your point is well taken... although i am a fan of tough love.. i
don't think whatt your family did you to you was tough love... although
that is what they called it... to me tough love has a "take it or leave
it" component... you were not allowed to choose to leave it...

oh yeah.. there is plenty of underlying shadowy stuff in so many
posts... i like the drama of it though...

i don't know.. very few of the other ones have held my interest,
although i have lurked on most lists that show up in a search of
"kundalini"...

well i hope you understand that my dander is not up, i was fooling
around... but i feel that the list is beautiful in all it's
imperfections... along with all the beauty, posts are often pompous,
nasty behind pretty words, and at times unkind to folks... but i find it
so beautiful and interesting... and i love the presence of dissenting
posts... so thank you, we would stagnate without them...
i love what this list is...exactly as it never stays... it's always
changing, but somehow, so much is all the same...
warmly,
percyval
