Why does the new "cool" message board drama
remind me of high school? Cliques seem to be something
that grownups have a hard time letting go of. And if
you post something they don't like, they can delete
your message. I've also noticed a clear "us and them"
attitude which seems kind of silly. I've also read several
messages that talk about various people from this board in
a very ungenerous way... I like him, but I don't
like him, etc. which is exactly what they criticize
others for. I don't understand and to be honest, I don't
care very much. I'm just wasting a little time - I got
a chuckle out of some observations.<br><br>Also, a
question for Blondie -sorry, "MILLENIUM BLONDE" - if, as
you say on the new board that you haven't had a drink
since last summer, why have you been bragging and
boasting all along about your tears? Did you expect that
no one would respond or that you would receive no
criticism? Or do you just want some attention? This is the
impression you have created, so why is it a surprise that
someone would respond in such a way to your announcement
about a miscarriage? The fact is that women suffer
miscarriages more often than we realize. Sometimes it happens
without any obvious trauma and unless the person is
really tuned in to their body, without the woman even
knowing. How can you expect people to be sensitive to your
personal reality on a public message board, especially
when you give an impression of a brazen, hard
drinking, hard living party girl? You must realize what you
alone are responsible for.<br><br>And Bandawoman - do
you think that by asking advice about getting in and
out of difficult second and third series asanas
(especially with 'large breasts') would not lead people to
believe that you are engaged in an advanced asana
practice and that you have large breasts - or was that
your intention all along? (Why else would you ask?)
And complaining repeatedly about the lack of adequate
instructors in your area, presumably implying that your
advanced level of yoga has left you without anyone to
guide you? These are very clearly the impressions I
gathered. Then later, in defense, after someone called you
on your stuff, claiming that you are, in fact, not
able to complete the primary series satisfactorily.
How do you expect people to respond to you? <br><br>I
also feign to say that the sheer volume of messages
created by you and sunshine and a few others can be
silencing to those who are interested in opinions and know
in advance that it will be one of you responding -
and we all know what your opinions are already, as
well as more information about your personal lives
than most of us are really need to know.<br><br>So
please understand that in nature there is no mistake. I
don't criticize your idea to start a new club, it is
actually a great idea. I am just pointing out a few
realities based on impartial observations. Take it or leave
it. The truth is, like I said before, it really
doesn't matter that much. Just don't run away pointing
fingers at the bad people who told the truth. And I know
that if I wrote this on the new club board, it would
most certainly be deleted.<br><br>FBL<br><br>PS - I
never claimed I could spell well.
