"And I believe that there are people reading this board that are not my friends or my family. I believe that if I tell my story about how I overcame depression and addiction , that someone also may be able to overcome on the basis of what I said that enabled them to start their journey to overcome their affliction. I believe that what I am saying here is just as important to someone as what you are saying here. Perhaps someone reading this right now has hate in their being and wants vengence. Perhaps that person will read in the Gates that the Gates open when you forgive. And maybe the poison of hate will go out of that person and they will find their way to the City of Peace and they will be freed from the slavery of their depression and addiction."
Lou,
Then finish telling the story, period. You started the story of the 7 Gates 5 months ago and you have yet to finish it. A message of this much importance seems to be something that should be delivered quickly shouldn't it? Finish the story Lou, and then let those who wish to follow your example follow it, but be prepared to respect the wishes of those who don't by letting that be the end of it.
Methinks thou doth protest too much...
Be well,
Greg
