I'm sorry Steve that you feel that you must unsubscribe from the JMDL, but I
understand and respect your decision just as I respect all of you. I wish you
happiness and we will miss your presence in this community. I know that the
decision that Les had to make to unsubscribe Marcel from the list had to be a
painful and difficult decision and I have told him these things just like I'm
telling you. I support him and I hope someday we can all be together again
and work out our differences. The rules of this list have been set forth
really clear. For those who are not familiar with them or need to review them
again, they're put forth on the JMDL page before you subscribed. I feel
really sad for all concerned that things had to come to this. I don't know
what the answer is, but I hope we find one. One thing that I've learned is
that conflict will just lead to more conflict. No one really wins. I'm sure
Debra is right from her point of view as well as Marcel feels he's right from
his, Colin from his... I pray that there is a return of camaraderie and a
strong sense of community feeling and that we don't abuse and insult one
another. A reminder of what brought us all together here in the first place,
Joni Mitchell's art and music. I would really feel ashamed if she were to
subscribe to this list and witness the insults and negative behavior that has
been going on here lately. What do you think she'd say or do? And this could
very well happen. She mentioned someday of the possibility of getting a
computer.
None of us really know one another. I met Marcel in New England this past
Labor Day and I have to admit, I had some reservations, so I walked up to him
and shook his hand. He really is a talented musician and it saddens me that
he's gone. I mentioned to Alison, that he reminded me a lot of my brother
Nick who is a very complex person, I might add. At some point Marcel came up
from behind me and stroked my hair. I felt relaxed in his presence and not at
all threatened by him and no, there was no hatred.
Know that I'm going trough some really difficult times right now. I'm not a
perfect person. I'm only human like the rest of you all. I've had my fair
share of failed relationships with people. I only ask that you appreciate the
time I took out of my life to reach out to this list. Sorry in advance for
the NJC.
Peace to all,
Rose in NJ
