[QUOTE="taykair, post: 177974, member: 9418"] Don't count on it. I can still be downright nasty if the situation calls for it. It's just that, as far as MeditationSync and his friend are concerned, their criticisms are due more to their insecurities than to my ego. So, even though it bothers me that they seem to misunderstand me and my intentions, they are not so bothersome so as to require retaliation on my part. They are more like a tiny paper cut than an open wound. I think it's worthy of my time as well. If I didn't, then I wouldn't bother with it. If you and a handful of others think so too, then that's great. The truth is, though, I'd write this stuff even if I were sure that nobody else would ever read it. It's just something I feel compelled to do, and I've given up trying to figure out why. As for my audience being larger than those who respond here, I really hope that's not true. The more folks who "follow" me, the more uncomfortable I feel. The contrarian who dwells deep within me is always suspicious of what the majority considers to be worthy. He's constantly whispering to me, "If it's popular, then it can't be that good." And I listen to him. Fortunately, fear of being popular (or not being popular) is not something which keeps me awake at night. There's no real risk that this little thread I post on will someday skyrocket to the top of the internet charts. Thank God. [CENTER]* * * * * [/CENTER] Well, it looks as if I lied to you folks last week when I told you that I'd have something interesting for you to read this week. Sorry about that. My creative drought continues, with no rainfall (in the form of ideas) in sight. Perhaps next week I'll have a thunderstorm for you, but not today.
