bel, a thought about your rather lengthy post.
Good God Milum, I have never before said this to anybody but, what the hell is your problem. ....I will NOT feel insulted and I will NOT feel debased because you are wrong. You have taken a gesture of friendship ... and a gesture of apology ... and you have totally twisted them in your own mind to mean something completely differently. ...
bel dear, if you truly were feeling calm and not insulted, could not your entire post have been instead a simple, kindly sentence such as "milum, my friend, you've misunderstood me"?
And I always, always treat others with the same respect I want to be treated.
bel, we are each of us imperfect, and there are times when each of us will act unkindly -- your strong post some time ago to shoshannah, for example. Could it be that you have perhaps overreacted here?
Such vehemence, in the past, drove shoshannah away from this board. I would deeply regret it if should we similarly lose milum, with whom I am mightily impressed.
