[Oe List ...] Salmon: Message for Jo and Susan

[Randy Williams via OE]

In times like these, with what's at stake, how could there not be disputes among us. Despite our strong experience of community we were never a bunch of goddamn clones, and what binds us is ever stronger than what separates us, regardless of all the years of being physically scattered.  "Where sin (separation) abounds..." We all know that little piece of profundity, and we know how it works.

It was at times lilke this that some one loved me enough to tell me to "suck it up!."
