FOG? Sigh.

The Darklady's succinct post was that I get lost in form and forget function. Hmmm. My journal entry does seem to have gone there. My last journal entry does seem to be more about the form, the Friends of Grim, than allowing me to buy a clue, the function. I do surround myself with a myriad of strong friends from different subcultures, and I understand this opportunity for those friends who chose to comment to mingle and communicate was irresistible.

Well. Let me summarize the last 39 posts. Using chaos as a shield and as a weapon to end burdensome relationships, and also chi to abuse power dynamics is something I can use and consider. Perhaps the silk is too tight around the iron. I am not unhappy with anyone, and I asked for this, and there is no need for anger or apologies or permission. All of my friends have honor in their way, and their own perspectives including grief, loss, love, and anger still allow me to learn from them, even when I have not spoken to them in some time. This is not the first time I have been gifted with the concept of Chaos.

Whether you feel it is right or wrong to take him up on it is another matter. I doubt anyone here (most CERTAINLY not me) would have the courage to take off one's armor and hand out rocks. If Grim wants his LJ community to oblige him in creating a digital gauntlet, who are we to deny him that? I think that as long the insight is kept reasonably general (no, "remember that time back in '97 when you said....") and done in a true spirit of helpfulness and caring, then it can be nothing but positive, if hard to take."

Those who really know me well know that I am trying to rest my Warrior Self, and my armour has been used up for some time, and not yet replaced. Yet, the analogy fits. Gauntlet? Nope. That means I'm running away. I'm going to stand here, again without judgment or comment.

Throw rocks.

Every time I've logged on to read and respond to this, either my computer time is limited (like when I'm at lunch), or Comcast cuts out and I have to reboot... either way, know that I have intentions of responding to this, as your Best Friend and the one who probably knows you the best. I know most of your faults, and I love you anyway. I have a list (of course!) of things I want to post here, some of which I've already told you about, but I want them here because you've created a public forum. Others may learn from what I have to say, and I intend to respond thoughtfully to some of the things others are saying as well. Know that the reason this is taking so much time for me is that I want to respond thoughtfully, *and* every time I try to get in here and reply, there are more and more comments that I just don't have time to read *and* post right now. I hope to get to this soon. Sorry it's taken so long, as I know it's important to you. Now, if you'll excuse me, I must prepare for a weekend in the woods. =)
