ORIGINAL: darksdesire wench i love your sincerity and vulnerability. It takes tremendous courage to remain open and vulnerable, particularly after someone slams you for no apparant reason. i guess he thought he had good reason to do it, though he never said what it was. My guess is most of us have been there, been hastily and unreasonably judged on this site. It happened to me within one of my first posts, and confused the living hell out of me, but i took a deep breath and understood that this will probably happen from time to time. It is not a reflection of you, but more of a reflection of the person who slammed you. that is what Master said too - there seem to be a lot of really genuine people out there and a few fakes who just want a reaction. i adore vulnerable people, because for me, it means they have somehow managed to stay open and soft in the face of a sometimes harsh and critical world. What a wonderful accomplishment that is! Stay in here Thankyou so much, i tend to see my vulnerablity as a negative, i'm working on accepting it about myself as i don't want to end up bitter or cold just because people hurt my feelings. i know that i can come across as childlike because of it though and that can invite negative people, i'm not usually as insecure as i have been feeling, i'm just having a bad week really. Thankyou again, your reply really touched me :0)
