#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#FONT size=2#ed_cl##ed_op#P#ed_cl#I am not going to say anymore as it is obvious people have made up their minds. I met a very nice lady that is trying to get herself stable and have a life. I love her horse and she was open and honest with me. That is what counts and that is what I judge people by. If we allow the past misdeeds of everyone to cloud our judgement of those working towards bettering themselves, then I would not even be still posting here.#ed_op#/P#ed_cl##ed_op#P#ed_cl#I do still have reservations regarding some members here and by their recent posts they scare me in their hardness toward those that will never be in their eyes, beyond redemption.. It is a very sad sad world we live in. #ed_op#/P#ed_cl##ed_op#P#ed_cl# #ed_op#/P#ed_cl##ed_op#P#ed_cl#I have had some tragedies recently and I know how long it takes to recover. #ed_op#/P#ed_cl##ed_op#P#ed_cl#I will get off my soapbox now.#ed_op#/P#ed_cl##ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Tanya, I don't see where anyone has said that she is a horrible person or that you and BT shouldn't have dealings with her. Regardless of her reasons she has not behaved well on more boards than this one and that is a fact not a fiction. Personally I have no fight with her myself, and if EC wants to give her a second chance I wouldn't have a problem with it.#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#I hope that she continues to be well.#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#/P#ed_cl##ed_op#P#ed_cl#Yet you carry on to do just that?#ed_op#/P#ed_cl##ed_op#P#ed_cl#That's called flaming, tanya.  And if you play with fire, you can expect to get burned.#ed_op#/P#ed_cl##ed_op#P#ed_cl#All I read in these posts was a willingness for people, in spite of past "run-ins" to wish DL/Spyder well as she continues her recovery.  That she has, in the past, burned her bridges on many a forum is a fact.  That many of us have "known" her for years on these different forums is also a fact.  I, for one, have been on the receiving end of lots of DL's hatred, and have chosen to make peace with her.  What the heck more you you want?  If you're expecting a big "Kumbaya" moment here, I wouldn't be holding my breath if I were you., especially since you've chosen to stir the pot instead. #ed_op#/P#ed_cl##ed_op#P#ed_cl#
