we will forever "bleed" on one another, perhaps it is how we become blood brothers/sisters. I cleanse myself in the tears and blood of others, and shed mine for them. It is where we truly know our Oneness

there is opportunity in every choice we make
and the ability to see the consequences. don't hold your mistakes over yourself, or the guilt will eat you alive. after all, anger arises from guilt. hope you are feeling better today.

Next time you see this person, why don't you let the them read your post? Or at least just reiterate its thoughts to them. I've read enough of your stuff to be able to recognize a good person. Hateful, no...human, yes. A truly hateful person wouldn't have written this post. It wouldn't have even occurred to them. That's all I need to know

Thank you for your compassionate counsel. I do usually try to choose my words carefully but do sometimes ready-fire before aiming and reach for the wrong one entirely. And, by the way, I am so glad you are leading me on our adventure, as you are ever so much more clear headed and mature than I....a fact I am so grateful for. I'll try to sleep those drugs off so I can work on that cypher...

Anyone who has followed your writing would know that your heart is in the right place. We hurt each other in ways that are unbeknownst to us at the time something is said.
You had a lot on your plate yesterday, fear and loathing and remorse. These are things that easily bring anger to ones tongue.
Perhaps too, the person of which you speak had many things as well, or perhaps something that was said struck a nerve.
Either way and whatever the reason you have beaten yourself far too much. I am sure that this person would consider you a friend, and in doing so, think nothing of it........(or not enough to mean anything)
Now, that said, get some sleep so that we can all enjoy something new and exciting from your creative mind.

I went to see War of the Worlds tonight to try to escape my guilt cycle for awhile. I also got some beautiful little flowers painted on my toes...on top of some bright red polish. It makes me smile to look at my joyful toes. I have just about worn myself out emotionally....people have surrounded me with loving comfort and understanding....I am so constituted that I find it almost impossible to hold onto bad feelings for too terribly long unless something continues to feed them. I will wake up tomorrow and feel better. Thank you, dear man.

Thank you very much for caring enough to reach out to me. The philosophical part of me could probably discuss at length with you the comments you left because they were very interesting...I mean, I understood and do have much I could discuss with you about them. But the emotional part of me just appreciates the fact that you could get past that part of you that strives not to be judgmental, but is at best confused by me, and reached out to comfort. I do appreciate you.

You are such a wonderful woman. Your dad would be so proud of you, with your big heart and your wisdom. Thank you so much for caring and for having the compassion to write these things to me. I sound like I don’t expect myself to be human, but I know I am - all too much. I am just very sensitive myself and so I guess I expect myself to be even more diligent about hurting others. Again, thank you for caring.

How very sweet of you, but I could tell from what little I’ve gotten to "know" of you that you are very much that. I appreciate your understanding and compassion. I wish I knew this is the last time I would ever say a hurtful thing to another human but I’m sure it isn’t.....I’ll keep working to keep my bleeding contained. Again, thank you, dear man.

Thank you so much for the soft embrace of your comment....so often showing in your poems. Yes, old pain....I think it is scarred over....and it rips open. I just don’t like to bleed on others; that is unacceptable. But, I’ll do it again in my life I’m sure! I do have this need to confess my sins. Thank you so much for your compassion.

hope today's a better day
I know how hard it can be having a kind of emotional storm front happening inside yourself while maneuvering through the usual patterns of everyday life. This morning I wrote another post and a few hours ago I was at home, suddenly thought about my and got kind of teary then got myself ready because i'm going off to meet a mate for football. We're interesting creatures with all our levels and layers of concern and desire, memories and preoccupations. I really do hop today's a better day for you and all get's sorted with your friend.

On the one hand, a heartfelt apology might help. On the other hand, will that assuage the anger and pain you felt when lashing out? I'm a bit torn by you and your posts. In this post you are real and vulnerable, but if those erotic posts embarrass me, perhaps it is not so much that I have a hard time dealing with such worship of sexuality, as that your personas in the different posts are sometimes hard for me to reconcile. But this is not your fault. The contradictions I perceive in you help me to better understand my own. Hemlocker

Krisles...That was a powerful piece of writing......
Like the readers before me have suggested....we are only human beings. we are not perfect. we laugh, we cry, we rip each other's heads off. It's all a part of life. To me, saying I'm sorry is very, very hard. I could write it easier than I could say it. I once had a big argument with my dad and he said something that hurt me badly. Then he slipped a piece of paper under my door that said, "I'm sorry for anything I've ever said." Of course I still have that note. But the bad words he might have said earlier, well, that didn't make me love him any less. Don't beat yourself up over this.....

Krisles,Don't go beating yourself up for being human. I'm not going to add
anything to what has already been said. OK? You just take care of yourself.

krisles, there is not a person on the planet who has not said hurtful
things at one time or another. The fact that you feel so bad shows that it is not of your nature to be mean. Forgive yourself, K?

OMG...you sound like me. we never get away with anything do we? And people wonder what a conscience is and what right and wrong are, well our heart tells us when we made a "boo boo". Forgive yourself your humanness, you had alot on yoru plate yesterday, some drinks in your tummy and alot of old heartache in your soul. Old stuff grabs us sometimes and yanks us around a little letting us know there is more to work on.

Thank you, and I would counsel anyone else the same.....I just cannot stand to hurt, even a little....it was my parents' best weapon for discipline! I never feared a spanking; but give me the slightest indication I'd hurt their feelings and I was devastated!! I know you are right and I'll stop beating myself eventually.

Krisles, everyone makes mistakes...we are our worst enemies at times, but
we must forgive ourselves in order to be a better person next time. Don't be so hard on yourself.
