Theos-Talk Archives (April 2005 Message tt01954)

Hi Mark-

Yes, I'll be back, I just need something other than contentiousness right now. It 
obscures the brilliance on this site, for me at least. And since I'm still mending my 
heart I don't have the strength to wade thru the muck at this time.

I'm still checking in on the site...I've just chosen to stop receiving emails for awhile, 
and choose what appeals to me.

Thank you for your care and compassion!

Love, 

Niki
