In reply to Dr. Bob, please take a look at this post. Thanks., posted by All Done on May 30, 2004, at 1:44:40
It was directed at me, so I guess I get a right to vote on it. That post hurt a lot, and at a time when I was and am very vulnerable. Yes, reading it activated that inner critical voice telling me all sorts of bad things about myself, like 'I shouldn't be upset, since it's so much worse for someone like Impermanence...' The apology also felt insincere to me.
On the other hand, the poster *did* apologize. Since we never really know what someone else is thinking behind what's written, I think we have to honor that.
