She's got previous anyway. I don't see why people are all up in arms.

Convictions are more dangerous foes of truth than lies.

I'm not up in arms, I wish her luck in whatever she wishes to be ......
Just don't like games and if that makes me a bad person
you know what i just don't fucking care.....
So sick of people that hide themselves... be honest about who you are
This is why I don't like people
They wear masks and hide parts of themselves
Why? So we are all a little fucked that doesn't make us dark or light it makes us HUMAN
and I have no expectations of people because people are both good and bad, they let you down, build you up, destroy you and so fucking what that is life....
My life is no different because of this thread... I never trusted people to begin with
I try to be nice and involve myself in this community and it bites!!!
NOT worth the effort
NO one here really knows the other person and never will fully because it's online and no matter what you say on here you could be anyone and doing anything....
So I'm not sorry I got involved and I don't really care what anyone thinks although i think this game is well played, hats of to you bren
Go be dark or light or whatever the fuck you want.... I wish you all the luck in the world
AND I DON'T TWIST WORDS
maybe people should be more aware of what they say!!!!!!!

Dark/Light
Jedi/Sith
Good/Bad
Just/Injust
Unfair/Fair

Labels, labels, labels, the lot of them. And quite frankly they don't mean a damn thing when you think about it. We assign everything we come into contact with a label. Why do we do this? Because we are lazy. Once we have assigned something the "correct" label we no longer have to think about it. It eases our minds and we can move on. Brenna has some thoughts we don't like? Just call them dark and then you can move on and not think about it. When in all actuality you should try to understand what is said fully and to come to terms with it. Split second judgements are human nature and as such are unavoidable, it is your personal decision however if you are going to investigate further. I encourage further investigation into all things whenever possible. Not just whenever it is convenient or pleasant.

Share your observations and opinion, but keep your harsh, vague and unsupported labels to yourself. They don't really help anyone else. I believe we can all learn something from this thread.

Sorry for rambling, that is a bad habit of mine.

May the Force be with you,
Rai

My apologies Elizabeth.

I was not directing that towards you or accusing you of anything. My comments are about this entire thread and our desperate need to use labels. However there are very few universal labels. As such we must be cautious of which labels we use at which times around which people. That is all. No hostility intended. Again my apologies for not being clear.

May the Force be with you,
Rai

There is one factor here that I feel might be important.

Before any of you can be honest about who you are to somebody else, one might ask if you are being honest about who you really are to yourself first. That in itself can be a whole can of worms on its own, and a natural origin behind most of this exploration.

“For it is easy to criticize and break down the spirit of others, but to know yourself takes a lifetime.”

I know who I am and am always honest with myself even if I aren't with others...
I accept who I am and grow with it, good, bad or ugly (sorry, labels)

Self-honesty is very, very difficult. (In actuality, it's very easy, but we MAKE it difficult).
