Coach:

Thank you for the words of encouragement, they did contain a “healing
balm”, that touched me deep. And though I do not ‘exactly’ concur with
your beliefs, ‘most’ have hit very close to my own. And I didn’t even
need the bucket. {Smiles} I’m not at all so sure the Almighty
Organizer, God, or what ever you choose to call She/He/or It has that
strong or direct effect on this earthly realm. Actually I’m in myself
(experience) convinced of this “reality” today, and consider such in
this “worldly” realm as “The Law of Accident”. But that’s another long
and controversial subject I won’t get into here. As you have put it,
(ah, sweet mystery of life!!!) will suffice.

And yes the blunder did provide me with a ‘clean’ objective view to
observe my Judges “self-condemning” anger. Though it had a strong
buffering effect on the candid observation of the anger that had stood
out to me in such high relief, and had been able to express “just
exactly like I had felt and understood it” in regards to the subject
that was lost. But right here it seems difficult for me to climb upon
my Rebels steed, while daunting my Judges crown to once more mount my
genocidal ethnic cleansing campaign. How I love to play the Dictator
when it “seemingly” suits my purpose so surely. But it will just have
to wait for such insolent move needs much “intellectual” strategy to
pull off while remaining clocked in what “must” appear as “True
Righteous Indignation”. But “never fear”, for I am certain the "oh" so
energetic insolence shall undoubtedly and undauntingly return with an
even stronger furry. For like “Michelangelo to Picasso, who did the
same theme over and over again as a *process* in their work”, neither
the world nor this class has heard the last of “me”! {Grinning
mischievously}
