~~~ understood. i know i did try to mention it to you then as it was truly meant to be a gift to you ... and i thought that would make you happy. perhaps you never saw the message. it happens. and of course ... my hurt feelings came as a result of expectations not met ... from anticipating something that did not manifest. that is my doing, not yours. more lessons ... more grist for the mill. ~~~ > i know that i have said that it is a lovely animation > here and in curlchat. ~~~ yes ... you have commented on many of my works ... and i appreciate that. i do value your opinions ... on art, music, the stars ... and more. if i did not value them ... i wouldn't care what you thought. ;) if i didn't like you ... i wouldn't care what you said. but that is not the case. i do. i have tried to acknowledge your work as well ... to comment on photos you have/had posted at the wiki. i even tried to encourage others to do likewise ... not just for your work but to comment and support all of our artists there ... artists, photographers, poets, storytellers, jesters ;) ... for whtever reason, you resisted that ... even removing the link encouraging folks to do so. i didn't understand that. and of course i selected your photos when i began to experiment with page layout options ... as many of them speak to me ... nature being my main guru. and it hurt when you then refused to let me use them. i can't help but think that you were trying to hurt me. and that hurt even more. ;) does that justify my reactions to that hurt? no. of course not. but i am only human. ~~~ > you know, back in november a friend got upset because > two of us had not acknowledged his birthday...
