| Posted by Delilah Coyne on 04/16/06 at 06:33 PM Simple and honest. Very effective.
I'm sorry someone decided to abuse the rating system and hurt you that way. |
| Posted by Peter Humphreys on 04/16/06 at 08:47 PM Such behaviour is unkind, unpoetic and just downright wrong. Whoever did it should be utterly ashamed of themselves. |
| Posted by Jim Benz on 04/17/06 at 03:58 AM in true poetic fashion - when the going gets rough, the tough write a good poem. Hang in there Joan! |
| Posted by Elizabeth Jill on 04/18/06 at 02:43 PM I join in with all, this is plain mean, and like Lori, I also know the feeling.
And, especially - I agree with Jim...
Please continue your very creative gifts! |

| Posted by Gregory O'Neill on 04/19/06 at 09:48 PM Hi Joan. Yes, hang in there..Jim is exactly right; take it to the pen! |
| Posted by Rula Shin on 04/20/06 at 03:01 AM I wonder what kind of answer would satisfy that one question? I doubt there is any so why ask? It's good to write out one's struggle on paper, it helps to purge negative emotions which can otherwise blur the line of what we perceive to be truly meaningful in this life...in this case shouldn't it be writing, and not rating?

| Posted by Ashok Sharda on 04/20/06 at 03:04 AM writing is meaningful whether one likes it or not, whther one rates it high or low. Writing is important and not rating. Derive pleasure from your own ACTION and not from others.
