good afternoon, BluWave... i remember the crappy comment you are referring to... i gather that person meant that you seemed to be moving on--which most posters eventually do--and that saddened him because he does value your input and would miss your contribution...

i like the idea of choosing an intention for the year... i have never been keen on making New Year resolutions, but i do like the idea of being resolved about things that come across, things that i need to pay attention to, in my life... because i can be wishy-washy... i loathe having to make decisions... perhaps i should intend to live my life more deliberately...

from our good friend Henry David Thoreau in Walden: or Life In The Woods--

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived."
