Subject: [K-list] What are we talking about? Re: A Question on therapy 
From: Divine Goddess
  
On 2001/03/18  03:23, Divine Goddess posted thus to the K-list: I wasn't talking about therapy....I was talking about me.
 
Did you hear me?
 
I don't think so cause you didn't hear me say I didn't smack people 
anymore cause I have learned to be gentle to myself.
 
I can't be a therapist, nor would I want to be, until I hear me first.
 
otherwise I will never hear others over the whispers and cries of my 
own heart
 
those are my own reactions that point me to the path of gentleness
 
just my own experiences
 
come play christopher 
it won't be awful, i promise 
laugh, like wim says 
what will you lose if you laugh and play?
 
will you keep ignoring our offers to come out and play? 
to be childlike? 
to be embraced?
 
susan
