>but that's not the point
Yes, it is the point. The point you are trying to make, has been
debated endlessly on the list.. The tug of war between those who need to be
able to express themselves and those whose hypersentitivity makes them
vulnerable to those expressions.
The edited digest was created sepcifically so that the senstive types
could get the K-list without having to open to those who need to express
their pain. Percyval spends time and energy every day editing all the
K-list posts to create the edited digest, and due to his illness it is not
an easy task for him.. but a sacred duty.
I felt the blast of percyval's anger, too.. but I empathised with his
pain, and it was gone. You chose to hang onto it, and play the victim..
Beware the righteousness of victims!!! Victimhood is the best excuse for
judgment and revenge.
Just picking up the email.. I've been surfing the net all day
looking for a screensaver creation program that can make the animation of
the grounding visualiation I did, into a screensaver...

As part of my ongoing work, I have been collecting quotes, and I'll bend
the list rules to send them out to everyone...: :)
Blessings..
Take away your opinion, and then there is taken away the complaint, 'I have
been harmed.' Take away the complaint, 'I have been harmed,' and the harm
is taken away.
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
Never apologize for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologize for
the truth.
Benjamin Disraeli
No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right
to grow.
Alice Walker
Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
Buddha
Look for a long time at what pleases you, and for a longer time at what
pains you.
Colette
Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.
Confucius
I discovered I always have choices and sometimes it's only a choice of
attitude.
Judith M. Knowlton
The problem is not that there are problems. The problem is expecting
otherwise and thinking that having problems is a problem.
Theodore Rubin
There are only two people who can tell you the truth about yourself - an
enemy who has lost his temper and a friend who loves you dearly.
Antisthenes
There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving,
and that's your own self.
Aldous Huxley
Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is
shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods.
Albert Einstein
You take your life in your own hands, and what happens? A terrible thing:
no one to blame.
Erica Jong
So in the Libyan fable it is told
That once an eagle, stricken with a dart,
Said, when he saw the fashion of the shaft,
"With our own feathers, not by others' hands,
Are we now smitten."Aeschylus
The easiest thing to find is fault.
Troubles, like babies, grow larger by nursing.
If you believe that feeling bad or worrying long enough will change a past
or future event, then you are residing on another planet with a different
reality system.
Offense is never given. It is only taken.
Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional.
The gem cannot be polished without friction, nor man perfected without
trials.
-- Chinese Proverb
By afflictions God is spoiling us of what otherwise might have spoiled us.
When he makes the world too hot for us to hold, we let it go.
-- John Powell
Strength is born in the deep silence of long-suffering hearts; not amid joy.
-- Felicia Hemans
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all. Security is mostly a
superstition. It does not exist in nature.
Helen Keller
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. The
fearful are caught as often as the bold.
Helen Keller
Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.
Anaias Nin
I postpone death by living, by suffering, by error, by risking, by giving,
by losing.
Anaias Nin
We don't see things as they are. We see them as we are.
Anais Nin
The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.
Dolly Parton
There are no guarantees. From the viewpoint of fear, none are strong
enough. From the viewpoint of love, none are necessary.
Emmanuel
No man is free who is not master of himself.
Epictetus
What we see depends mainly on what we look for.
John Lubbock
Beware the fury of a patient man.

I would rather live in a world where my life is surrounded by mystery
than live in a world so small that my mind could comprehend it.
