Re: The Post You Have Been Waiting For...SCATTERING
R.G.,
I, too, have a phrase that I don't use lightly...I don't say it often. You, my friend, are one smart cookie! And an honorable man! What a combination!
Those who think one person can't 'make a difference' in this old world, ought to meet you!
Two important things (among many) I have learned from you are...
...1. To separate my very personal feelings from the realities of parasites which may be inhabiting our bodies. Imagination is a wonderful tool for forwarding our creative abilities...but when it comes to human well-being, we need the voice of experience!
(I'll never forget my surprise at the fact that I didn't care what was 'behind me', in the toilet. It wasn't nearly as important to me as the feelings of well-being and progress! Suspicions confirmed! I am NOT as 'senior' as I had thought. This is the way humans are SUPPOSED to feel. And, in any case, I am seeing things that I had never guessed were possible, inside. Reality is stranger than imagination.)
...2. And, I am learning 'communication' from you. (Didn't expect that one, did you?)
You are a master at saying just enough to help and support, and not enough to scare.
Great communication skills are your 'gift'. Your readers are tempted to read between the lines...where understanding lies.
You are so patient with us, never knocking folks down, always coaxing us toward the generations of wisdom and experience that is your heritage and your talent.
This, I think, is true 'community', which is the passion of many here on CureZone.
My appreciation, R.G. I am glad to know you.
Fledgling
