Thanks Marcelle and Sue for the feedback as I'm sure I'm one of the ones worthy of it. While I still believe "in general" in the theories behind my metaphors, I do not feel that things are always absolutes and there is definately room for individuals to have experiences that don't quite fit in to the descriptions inwhich I applied. I agree that everyone has their own path and has their own understanding of their experiences and I completely respect that. I was mostly seeking to feel that respect as an inbetweener, I guess I wasn't initially in this thread, but at the moment I do. Zooey, I really like and appreciate the last paragraph in your last post as it offers that respect to all of us.
