I think what I'm getting at is that this particular filter I'm speaking of (and we all have lots of them, of course) is based on something that happened to me when I was little which I have much more ability to prevent now that I'm an adult, but I still have a variety of harmful, unnecessary filters that relate to this matter. This topic in general brings to mind our "who says?" conversation. That's still the greeting on my cell phone. I hope that eventually it will sink into my brain.

Yeah, I haven't really made my point with this post yet, but I needed to get home. :-) Have to work on it. I'm trying to get at those filters that we don't need... that are put there by others or by irrational fears... Ah, well, later! Aroma it is!

I am very aware of this particular filter, and I know it's not useful. However, it's based on an actual highly negative experience, and the extremely remote chance that the experience could be repeated makes it hard for me to let go of the filter. It's something I want to work on, though, without a doubt. I <I>still</I> haven't been to Aroma. I propose that sometime this weekend, if your freelance schedule allows, we go there and get some coffee and talk about this stuff. And just life in general.
