That's always possible. In any case, it's important for me to not retain any resentment or anger about it. I'll either stay or leave or stay then leave or leave then come back. Whatever. Drug/medication information has always been my main draw and that remains.
I was a bit teased over to the support side after
Sar's death--by feeling very connected and for me that proved to not such a good idea-- based on the resulting changes. Oh well, life moves on.And I have reminded myself that this is your board. So I'll back off. But about the following statement of yours:
"If you could please try to accept what I decide and to trust that I'm doing my best to be fair and to do what I think will be good for this community as a whole, I'd really appreciate it."
Okay I find this statement absolutely insulting.
Recently I think you have made some very bad judgments (which to me don't have to do with fairness) and I am trying to (1) tell you know why I believe they are bad decisions, and (2) try to understand why you are making (imo) bad choices, especially in such a short time. One second we are debating having an oldtimers board; the next week we have that board as well as three others. The speed itself felt shocking and not in our best interest. It is not about about things getting bigger for me (a city), it is for me about all the overlap.
If I don't like the decisions that you are making, I have several choices: live with them, leave, speak up about them, or all of the above. If you don't want feedback, then make a rule that feedback is not civil. Or substract the administrative board. To tell us that you are doing what you feel is best for the community is fine; to tell us that we should accept the changes that you decide is truely patronizing.
