THAT would reflect a great sign of humility and go a very long way to heal differences and harm done...fear/hate could become diminished and reality would be engaged. (I´ve posted this link to my Update...hope that is ok, if not please remove it but I thought your follow-up is important to the whole encounter).<br /><br />http://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=6795165206797872713&postID=7963098345421681024<br /><br />Best to you,<br /><br />Leonardo RicardoLeonardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16667415590825321701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8443447842611499359.post-63862685365598133972009-05-14T14:13:00.000+01:002009-05-14T14:13:00.000+01:00Colin, I'd really like to thank you for your inval...Colin, I'd really like to thank you for your invaluable insight, and constant messages from the conference. It is sometimes hard to know how to respond to negativeness and suspicion. I don't think you need have regrets. Your work is much appreciated.Jonathan Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17204619652124177210noreply@blogger.com
