Sinister: give me a firm place to stand and i will move the earth

[Jonathan Skinner]

Dear All
this may be the hardest post that i have ever ever written. I am leaving
you. i bear no grudge or ill will against most if not all of you , that is
to say i won't do an isabelark or what ever
 . I just feel it is time for me to move on. Sinister has been a pretty big
part of my
life for the last 4 years but i think i should go off for a while. The list
has grown rather stagnant of late with the posts not being as stimulating
and simulating as they used to be,
perhaps it is my own doing that i have allowed myself to lose interest in
the list but i find it rather hard to get excited about bowling meets in
england that i can never go to , clubs nights i crave to but can't go to
simply cos i live on the wrong island.
sinister has raised my expectations of people but it has also made me feel
very isolated. i think i have to get real, now. never before or never again
shall i come across 1400 interesting people that all have a different
perspective than i but also one that agrees mostly with me  , well it used
to be the case anyway.  I realised that it isn't real. no matter what is
said i still have to go on my day to day life with people that aren't like
me in manner that perhaps isn't me but unfortunatly that is real life and i
can't bloack myself away from it no matter how hard i try - perhaps i am not
making myself clear as i would want to.  Basically i want to move on with my
life-. also i suppose i have never really felt the urge to meet up with
anyone whatsoever
and no need to open my heart on here i sort of feel like an outsider anyway.
i leave you with the words of a 13th century song
"guadeamus igitur , iuvenes dum sumus"
indeed let us be happy while the we are young



godspeed
jonathan
