Hi Robin, FIVE hours in the Dome this afternoon! First helping with the cleaning. Which includes hoisting pieces of foam. Then program. And get this: there are women who have spent 5 hours every morning in the Dome FOR OVER SIX YEARS! How how how how?!
Anyway, the post of yours which I only saw in one of Judy's finally came into my inbox at 2:45 this afternoon. It actually came in AFTER the ones you sent today! When I read your analysis of turq, I remember that I felt so disappointed. You seemed to be expressing a grudge and to be as incomprehensible as before. And when I read your exchanges with Curtis, I couldn't understand why you were being so sarcastic and accusatory when he sounded reasonable. In both cases I felt sad because I felt that gulf between us. ________________________________ From: Robin Carlsen <maskedze...@yahoo.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, April 3, 2013 2:27 PM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: to Robin I can't help myself. The reason why you asked Judy that question, Share, was because you sensed I was letting my anger get the best of me. [Apologies to BW for this sentence only] But I will ask you one other question: How do you account for the fact that DrD knew exactly why I wrote those three posts; and indeed his confidence in the justification for my having done so (as expressed in his post) exceeds in significant measure the perplexity my having done so induced in yourself? The answer here--Let's get it out, dear Share: You asked Judy that question because you tend to resist the contact point in reality where there is the most tension, the most meaning, and the most truth: where it can make a demand upon us which hurts. You are acutely aware of the metaphysical point of the maximum realness (and helplessness), and you are, for Christ's sake, more sensitive to it than I am. So you asked the question to Judy in order to push away the way reality came in on you in those three posts. Not one other person on FFL wondered (the way you professed to wonder, Share) why I wrote those three posts, Share. Why don't you ask yourself THAT question: Why was I, Share Long, the only person who was unable to understand why Robin wrote that analysis of Barry, and those two posts to Curtis? You didn't like having to experience what was going inside of you when you read those three posts, Share. So you turned your psychological aversion into a seemingly guileless question, but in the very act of forming the question you managed to get some distance on the experience that had been engendered in you when you first read those posts. An experience you wished to get rid of. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Share Long <sharelong60@...> wrote: > > Robin, your response to me has not yet appeared in my inbox.
