When I think of the people I've met here in Arx and the interactions I've had with them over the years, I sometimes find a similar story. Something where a person's actions can be seen in so many different lights depending on what you know of the other's motives. Or what you think you know. It is an unfortunate truth that unless someone says something we're always just guessing at what is behind their choices and actions, and even then they may not be fully honest with us or themselves.
That uncertainty challenges us. It even leads some of us to lash out at others, over an inability to understand. Or worse, a choice never to understand.
A moment of self-reflection, then, can change more than how you see your own story.

Stress and whiskey are not good bedfellows.
Are there any dream experts out there, I wonder? Should I send out a call for them?

This is another reason to take a step back. I need to focus my energy. I am stretched too thin and cannot commit the time and energy the Council deserves. I am sorry if I have let anyone down.

Still, as a healer - as a shaman, I regret such actions. I should strive to mend the balances in the world and heal the harms done not create new ones.

If you have a complaint about one of my Scholars, or myself, you are free to address those concerns to me freely and openly, but preferably privately. Preferably with context, and facts, rather than blatant disrespect and vague passive-aggressive comments that mean nothing to me without an understanding of where they are coming from.
We have enough crises to deal with these days without bickering among ourselves. I had hoped for better. Time is precious and fleeting, and quite frankly, I don't have time for added drama when I would rather be focused on my work.

Poets of Arx, please do come and help lift our voices in a more choir of various tones and timbres. Or I will have to inflect another writing prompt as I did last time.
I still may do.

Relationship Note on Lucita
I will always try to be an enduring and loving good friend. But even so, there are some in my life who make doing so very effortless.
Time whether together or apart does not determine the depth of meaning or importance of a friendship. Effort, true caring, trust and loyalty does.
I thank you for that gift.

It will certainly help my diplomatic efforts, to have so many languages. When you learn a language, you also learn a culture, and take on a piece of that in yourself. Bridges are built with such empathy.
Also it's really fun to be able to swear in ways others might not understand.
Yes, Bliss, I swear!
Sometimes.
