Subject: [K-list] to "help" or not to "help"

I find the dialogue that is going on between Keith and Susan very
interesting. In part, it makes me aware of how much I have come to trust
Mystress Angelique's judgement and to feel the love and wisdom of her and
others (such as Susan) who have been on the board for so much longer than I
have. If I had just come upon the board and witnessed the exchange between
Mystress and Tony I imagine I might have had questions about it (although
from where I stand now I thought what Mystress did was incredibly loving and
compassionate).
It also makes me think about the whole issue and nature of "helping" and
reminds me of something I read in one of Mystress Angelique's other sites
about how even the act of offering love and healing to others can be
disrespectful because it presumes that the other is "less than" and "in
need" instead of seeing them as already whole and perfect and not needing to
change them.
I'm not trying to slam you for wanting to help, Keith, because I also think
that there can be something useful about a fresh perspective, and not being
biased by a history of negative experiences with a person. I know Goddess
moves in you--as she does in all things-- and maybe you are her way of
reaching out to Tony.
Anyway, I just wanted to put in my two cents. This whole thing is very
evocative for me. I can see parts of myself in each player (including
Tony!).
Love,
Elizabeth
