Dear Mary,

 

I understand very much what you are said to Stephen about your experience of

ritual....I was also raised a catholic and have had similar challenges because

of my upbringing.

 

When I read your second post I had a panic attack on the spot!

I hope I have not done wrong by posting my feelings honestly to Stephen on the

forum.

Just to set you straight, Stephen has never been hurtful in a deliberate way

and never spoke about a specific person in a judgemental way, ever. It is not

his way.

What I wrote was my opinion and feeling regarding how he spoke about people in

general who did rituals or who followed the protocols to the letter. Stephen

said often that we all follow our own path but he would then comment and I saw

ridicule said about those who chose a different path to his own. He has a

sense of humour and often dresses his comments in this humour. It was none of

my business really but somehow it is because I love him that prompted me to

finally post what i was seeing.(what I was seeing, could say more about me!!) I

should have been honest with him about what I saw when I first saw it in his

posts but I was not.

There is no big drama going on here except that perhaps I have sort of made one

by my comments, so please do not get sucked into something that is of me and is

communicated to Stephen.

Perhaps I should have e mailed him privatly but it did not occur to me to do

that. I cannot take back what I said to Stephen as it is as it is. I would hope

that we can also share the negatives and the clashes that arise. I love

Stephen and hope that he still loves me too.

love Julia
