A short time ago a friend here made a comment to me, one which hurt me a little, or maybe it hurt a bit more than I knew at the time. It hurt me not the way you might think. My friend made a simple characterization about me, my posts, and my ... well I will use beliefs for lack of a better word coming to mind. My passions about politics, economics, social strife, racism, world hunger, poverty, class warfare (and I don't mean that the way the rich talk about it), homelessness, and general bigotry must make it seem to many that you feel exactly the way he said. This has disturbed me a great deal lately. I know it is not his fault and he did not intend to hurt me at all.

But part of me feel as if I have been prejudged in some ways because of it. It hurts because of the way it came across to me.

I have always tried to express the real me here. And now I find that conclusions still exist even here. I wish you all knew me better.

Eventually I will get over it. But if I seem a little distant in the near future, don't take it as a slight against any of you. I am just trying to deal with this myself.

I will try to be better,

Kevin
