Twilight Hue
Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
This thread is intended to announce some fundamental changes I have requested to staff in regards to my forum name and change of avatar as well as making a public apology for my recent behavior and aggressive and provocative postings particularly in the political forums and subsets here.
First of all, Nowhere Man is no more as this cloud has now since passed and dissipated over the great pond.
In place of my username, I will be henceforth known as Twilight Hue.
This name change is to reflect my personal affinity to strive for the middle way, and serves as a gentle reminder for me to reflect the tenants I have found through philosophical Buddhism and common practices which have played key and beneficial roles in my personal life on and off the net.
Unfortunately I have strayed quite a bit from that philosophy in past years and have recklessly allowed my personal passions and emotions to become uncontrolled to a point where things have become counterproductive and adversarial with my exchanges during conversations and debates. The kicking of the ox or the screaming monkey as it were. I have neglected the virtue of mindfulness.
For that, I would like to express my deepest apologies to anyone who I may have offended or angered by my recent behavior. My demeanor and approach will no longer be done in that style.
As one extinguishes a flame on a candle and then lit again, the flame brings on new meaning and character.
Thank you for your understanding and forgiveness.
