Popoe:

With all due respect, I know you really want me to find my "higher-self" and my "inner being" and all those things you seem to be posting to me all over this website. You seem like a very nice and caring person.

I'm afraid you are reading too much into my posts.

Let me tell you two things about me...

I have a degree in psychology, a Masters in Business, and a degree in Art History. I am a corporate worker but also a successful artist. Not that education makes me better than anyone, but it does afford me a different view of the world psychoanalytically....I'm afraid not only do I not believe in past lives, but I would be very suspicious of those that supposedly bring such a thing out in a person. I do not in any way mock, nor judge those that believe in this, it is only my belief.

You sense I have too much anger and are passing this down to my family? You are wrong on all counts there, and I'm telling you this because again, you are reading too much into my posts. I'd say we are the most normal, dysfunctional, loving family around. We have our challenges, but I am not passing my "anger" down to my son. I wish you would not be so bold as to say those kind of things to me.

Do all parents pass dysfunction down to their kids? You can bet your bottom dollar on that one sir.

Next, you also need to know that I am an atheist. Not atheism that comes from anger at religion or God however. You might think...poor Molly. I do not in any way feel remorse or guilt in my choice. It's not a popular thing to say on this website, and I don't say it often. But I would not hesitate to say it if it becomes an issue. I am not even spiritual, but I do live by the rules of humanity, and try to live my life with conviction and love.

My husband and I do work on ourselves as much as possible, in furthering our lives in a direction that has value. It may not be your value, but it's ours.

If I feel anger towards the men/women hurting the women/men on these forums, that is called indignation at senseless and baseless demoralization and fear. And yes, it does invoke some strong feelings, and dare I say passion? You should not be afraid of passion Popoe. It has made me (what I believe in my little mind) an exceptional artist, and a success at my vocation, a strong advocate for my husband, and a fiercely loving and caring Mother.

So my dear, you must think of it this way....you are one kind of person, and I another. Really, you don't need to save me as much as you have been trying. I do believe you have done this out of the goodness of your heart however, and for that I am grateful. So really, thank you. I hope I have explained this well enough for you.

Love, Molly
