Replying to a comment on:

A Plea To The Mother(Mother Earth) (Free verse) by Rainbow_chaser

Oh mother, please forgive me I have ignored you for so very long, I have blamed, denied and mistrusted you I had forgotten you, for reasons all wrong. I was lost in a deep dark well in the gap, In a fog of loneliness and pain, So easy it was to loss the balance I now fight so hard to regain. I realize by denying you mother i was denying myself as well, When i was lost in the dark, the difference in directions were so difficult to tell. Much healing must take place now For we have alot of work to do, I know now the cause of my loneliness was me trying to live without you. So Mother And Father I ask that you hold me in your loving embrace, Help me find the balance and strength to this work with grace. Written by: Autumn Dawe?? May 22, 2002.

I presume you refer to Rainbow Chaser's "i must say this, true strength is found in utter weakness, if one would only look around and grow from each experiance.... well then all could benifit from alittle weakness." It's another example of pulling certain vulnerable words from the context of what a person is saying. The loose, imprecise nature of her writing in this comment should have shown you that her exact words are not important compared to the whole of what she is saying. She means it's the admission of weakness, not necessarily weakness, that leads to strength. She's also saying that many people are weak because they do not admit weakness. I think she's quite right about this.
