View Full Version : I realized that I should tell you

Several days ago you may have read an uncalled-for thread
that I hung up here at the Soap Box, titled "This thing at
the Soap Box".

I say uncalled-for simply because that is realistically the
cold fact. So I realized that I should tell you.

I should tell you that I am amazed beyond words that no
one here who posted comments to that thread in reply had
any complaints about what I viewed, after going back to
read that piece, as a naked threat; to leave this forum --
simply and stupidly because Roxy had failed to respond to
my request for forgiveness to a mistake that I unintentionally and unknowingly made to one of her threads.

Not maliciously or devilish, but I giggled as my mental
channel caught the images of some of you tripping over
each other as you ran to post your comments to that piece.
Some comments were very easy to take as being very true
and reasonable, stressing the fact that we all make errors.

I should have known that, as I will invite you pretty soon
here at the Soap Box, to get to know this new member and make comments to a thread that I want to share with you.
Therein, in installments write about my situtation with the
real issue that is most important to this forum. That is the
issue of Immigration, and our brown brothers struggle.

I am currently in contact through PMs with a very special
person here at this forum. I say special because there is no
other word that I can find in my dictionary that defines the
magic of persuasion, the weigh this persons words affected
my decison to drop my tantrum and just shut up and let
the Roxy issue drop and let it go --- and not leave the forum.

I should have told you sooner. I should have told you simply because you deserved to know. Some might have
unwittingly urged me not to leave rightly by trying to make
me see that we all make mistakes. If I neglected you, I am
sorry.

I consider myself a reasonable thinking person, and just
for argument sake, I believe that I can reasonably point as
mitigating circumstances as a valid reason for the neglect
is the fact that as I mentioned, I am currently involved with some exchanges of PMs with this particular person that begun prior to my hanging up that stupid thread. So
due to the fact that these exchanges of PMs were in progress prior to hanging up that stupid thread, it should
be reasonable to say that my neglect was justified.

Still, I realize that I should tell you.

I have yet to request permission to write about some aspects of those exchanges of PMs with the mentioned
person involved. What I have come to percieve about the
intellectual ammunition that this site is armed with, I do not think that I need to explain to you why I should need to ask permission to write my own words elsewhere.

Clearly, any one here knows what Personal Message stands
for. So I just leave it at that.

I truly think, however, that this particular person will not
object, of course being that I write with caution as to not
infringe upon any irrelevant issue that I inteligently know
has no connection with our PMs. In fact, I honestly think
the person will urge me to write at will, about what I have
written in my PMs. Whatever the outcome, I will keep you
posted.

As I said, I read some very nice and reasonable comments
particularly from the person with the magic. Another one of
those comments that added substantial weigh to my
ultimate decision not to leave this forum was posted by
KitKat. I was and still am, very impressed with KatKat`s
word selection and manner of marshalling the reasons that
stated a postition as to why I SHOULD JUST SHUT UP and
let it go.

I just regret profusely that I cannot reach or connect to
KitKat. You must recognize by now that I should be the
type of person that respects the privacy of anyone who
choses not to be bothered by unfamliar or unknown sources
here at the forum, or anywhere else for that matter.

If you read this KitKat, thanks.

As for other members here at the forum, and I refer to
you, if you have recieved a PM from me. When I registered
here and joined Immigrate2us.net my first reaction was
awe. You will read later what I mean by awe. So many
of same people I may have crossed paths with were listed
as members. So I did what is recomended. Make friends.

You never responded. I have attempted to connect with you
through PM in hope of developing an amicus atmosphere
where we can first introduce ourselves to each other and
proceed in an adult manner to try to solve the many
challenges our bothers struggle with daily in the county.
And of course I refer to those living in the shadows afraid
of the Gastapo lurking in the doorways of their employer.

I read daily here at the forum, that despite the "illigal"
tag that the Gastapo has place as a lapel on so many
of my own blood brothers, you continue to try to do what
you percieve to be the right thing.

I came here and learned that I want to be part of this
movement. This struggle. I believe that my few grains of
salt and perhaps I may toss my two cents to help someone.

I was born in this country in Texas. Maybe before some of
you were yet born. I crossed into Mexico by car and lived
there as an illegal for years. My wife and children were born
there. We now all live in Milwaukee. Everyone is a U.S.
naturalized citizen and has been for some years now.

I have a story to tell you.

I realize that I should tell you.

I don't see why that thread should have made you leave to begin with. You asked question and they were answered. You weren't rude or anything. I don't think anyone has any ill feelings towards you. I wouldn't worry about it and just go on. :)

Indeed that issue of the thread in question is a dead issue.
Thank you Marie for your comment.

I admitted today that such a deluted mentality for taking
such a stupid position as threatening to quit the forum is
not what I am about.

I know that you are a busy person so I will just say to you
as a promise, that I will make sure that my head stays
clear and my eyes wide open to avoid any potential pitfall.

Again thank you Marie.
