Sherry , I think I understand why you say you’re sad for Son of Baldwin. You know I’ve seen your heart and where you’re coming from, yet those words don’t sit right with me. I came to this post right after publishing my standalone response to his piece, which hit me hard, so perhaps being immersed in my feelings for a while makes me even more sensitive.

Saying you feel sad for him, or maybe even me, sounds like a value judgment on what he and I are feeling, not on the miasma that brought our feelings here. It feels patronizing.
