I don't want my letters to be like that. What makes you think that your interpretation of someone's post is an accurate indication of what they meant? Do you *really* know the reasons behind why someone says something? Wouldn't that imply the ability to read minds? How are you so sure that what you're reading isn't mostly your own interpretation? " A mother is seen by a police officer hitting her child on the back, HARD. She's immediately arrested, taken into custody and charged with child abuse. Upon returning to the scene, officers find the child dead, having choked to death on a piece of meat. The mother was trying to get the kid to cough up the food, but was instead arrested, and the child died. " In my experience, what people hear, see or read (even in other's actions) consists almost purely of their own conditionings. People love to judge others, not realizing that *there are no others*. The seeker is the sought, the thinker is the thought, the judge is the judged.
