No, no! Please don't' feel bad. I only wish that we had this discussion in person, instead of this forum. I am confident it would have gone on very differently.
<span class="ev_code_RED">AGAIN YOU DELUDE YOURSELF.</span>
This interaction with people like Paragon has taught me how to stay on the esoteric path:
<span class="ev_code_RED">MORE ARROGANCE. YOU ARE NOWHERE NEAR AS ADVANCED A BEING AS PARAGON.</span>
2. I must work on my anxious craving for approval from others.
<span class="ev_code_RED">THUS FAR, THIS IS THE ONLY POINT UPON WHICH WE AGREE.</span>
3. I need to be aware of involvement with interesting but immature people. "Do not trade your gold for their gravel."
<span class="ev_code_RED">YOUR EGOTISM IS DEAFENING, EVEN TO YOU! WHY DO YOU CALL THEM IMMATURE AND IMPLY THAT YOU ARE MATURE? WHY IS THEIRS GRAVEL BUT YOURS GOLD?</span>
4. Be aware of hostile attitudes in others, then realize they need not influence you any more than "a slashing storm can affect a beam of light!"
5. Inward right action relieves us completely of concern over results in our outward actions.
<span class="ev_code_RED">DON'T YOU SEE THE OBVIOUS PITFALL HERE? THIS IS PERFECT JUSTIFICATION FOR A NARROW MINDED ARROGANT JERK TO DO WHATEVER HE OR SHE WANTS, REGARDLESS OF CONSEQUENCES. WHO MADE YOU THE ARBITER OF WHAT IS RIGHT? WHAT IF WHAT YOU SEE AS INWARD RIGHT IS ALL WRONG?</span>
Thanks James and all here, you are great teachers!
<span class="ev_code_RED">I HOPE SO!</span> </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
