Hello, my name is Ahbleza! Some of you may know me from earlydays, when this all began. I'd like to get a new start over here. I have no bad intentions with ANYONE over here. ps, If someone has ANY problem with my return, write it here and i'll understand. I hope i do NOT get any PM's again...not here, not at the other side (site) I'll check this thread in a few days, to see if i'm welcome again. Oh and Scragnark, Welcome too!!Man!!

Hi Geronimo. I would say welcome aboard, but the fact that you don't want any PMs here does sound a bit hostile. Why would you want to be here if you don't want to be friendly with anyone? We were all looking forward to your return and were certainly willing to forgive, but I have to say your comment about PMs sounds a bit suspect on your part and makes me question your sincerity. Unless you're saying you don't want any PMs telling you you're not welcome here, in which case I completely understand! But we're all pretty friendly, so as long as you are too, then I would think that should work out fine.

Geronimo, In case you didn't mean that you didn't want to receive any PMs at all around here but merely PMs telling you that you weren't welcome, I thought I'd post the link to your "Goodbye" thread here, as some of us were trying to let you know that we were sorry to see you go and that we hoped you'd reconsider and come back: blacboard.proboards77.com/index.cgi?board=chat&action=display&thread=1136922210&page=1Just in case you didn't see that thread and were wondering ...

I'll accept all PM's again. At any site. Can someone ask JCL to change my nick back to Ahbleza? I like Geronimo, but i' d rather be the old one again. Thx guys and girls.

Hi Ahbleza! I'll send Jon an email, asking him to change your name for you, although he'll probably also see this thread. Welcome back!! Thank goodness another poet is on board!

I sent Jon an email, but I also wanted to let you know that we have an "Arts" section now, in case you're interested!! It's a separate subforum for poetry, music, photography, and the like.

JLC, Satori, thanx for givin my true name back... i am touched by your kindness...Metta! Hey, it's back! You're welcome!! I like the meaning of the name Ahbleza. It means "more aware, literally: takes aware," right?

Ahbleza was a 19th century Lakhota Native Indian Chief. He was the first to bring me into contact with buddhism. May sound strange from an american native story. But i always have been "diffrent then others". Ahbleza means "see-through", "observe"
S.? what ever happened? Wanna PM me about it? Metta?

But i always have been "diffrent then others". Ahbleza means "see-through", "observe" I don't think it sounds strange at all. I love the Native American spiritual practices and teachings. In fact, some of my teachers were influenced by medicine men and women, not only as healers but also as shamans ... practices I especially love. Wonderful teachings! I also recognize the connection with Buddhism. We even had a few discussions over at esangha years ago (in the Other Philosophies and Religions section), and I believe Purelander was very interested in those things and also made the connection between Buddhism and those beliefs. He was from Austria so he was much more open-minded about that sort of thing. Oh, and I have always been "different than others" too. IMO, that's a good thing!

Satori, got to go to sleep now. Again, if you wanna, PM me. Your FRIEND, Eric. Okay, this is strange. I just PMed you, but it wouldn't allow me to do so unless I sent it to "Geronimo" instead of Ahbleza. But in my Outbox, it reads "Ahbleza." Hmm ... maybe Jon can look into that for you???
