Wow. As Bill Murray said in Caddyshack, "That was a little harsh."
Really, Starsky? Coming from you, I have to think about it. (B/C you are the King of being direct). I'm being sincere.
25,
I am not so sure you were being sincere. It came across to me as frustrated and snarky.
I have watched vets attack other vets and ride SM for not getting it...
Every one seems upset that SM is trying to figure out HIS way to do this instead of doing it their way...
These boards used to be about helping each other.
Now I see a lot of telling people what to do and what not to do, but no real effort to help them understand the hell they are going through. And no real attempt to help them find their own way out of the pit...
THAT to me is frustrating.
If I was SM, I would probably have walked away from here a while ago...
He was one of the ones who stuck out the moderation to actually receive help, and just because he isn't getting "it" as quickly as some might like, he gets to walk around with some major splinters.
How about asking a question, and if you think the answer could be deeper, ask a more probing question, try a different approach, actually use the techniques that DB teaches, of if something isn't working, try something different...
And if you find yourself frustrated or angry, try to detatch from the thread.
JMO.
SM, sorry for the hijack and the drama. We are all better than you have been shown. I hope the meditation was wonderful and that you found some peace for a few hours.
