unless this is a replacement cult, I suggest you allow me the space to leave it behind, instead of big-brothering me or shepherding me into conformity, with your lessons learned sharing session. this is only giving me the creeps. I know it's not what you intend, but this is how I am experiencing it. I'd rather you let me drop it when I feel it is time to, for I will not be orchestrated into silence if I don't see fit. actually I do feel it is time, so I'd be happy to have you ignore my posts. really.
with respect, I am not here to measure up to your idea of what a personal journey is. this space is as much mine as it is yours. my journey in regards to TF if you wish, is to address social injustices creeeping in on my space. I lived and experienced racism in TF, and Family writings are rife with racial remarks. I was interesting to recruit because of who I was, I was judged, because of who I was, and I was exploited because of who I was: a Chinese American.
if you can, try to read my post and see that I didn't complain about being called a whiner in TF, but rather mentioned that it is a leftover Family trait in ToC to call my articulated feelings "whinning" (ToC's spelling). I see people having leftover Family traits, and I react negatively, no apologies.
