Mitch honey ... there you are dropping yourself down a peg or two again! You'll be spanked soundly if you keep that up dude! We have all made mistakes in life but it's how we move on from them that makes the difference. You were probably everything an elder SHOULD have been ... had it not been for the many others who chose to use their power for bad and not good ... they dragged you with them sweetie.

The good thing is ... you are well out of that vice-like grip they had over you ... and along with your lovely Little Mitch ... you can move onwards and upwards to a new and fresh life together ... where the only restrictions you have on your lives ... are the ones YOU put on them! Freedom is a highly prized possession of mine ... it will be yours too!!!
I know that I shouldn't get so down on myself, but I do at times. I think the different phases people go through when leaving the Borg is a part of the healing process and guilt is a part of it. I'm having a lot more good days than bad, so is LM. So, things are looking up!

I like what you said Andrea about restrictions and freedom. Both LM and I are definitely feeling the freedom of being away from the Borg! Sometimes you don't realize what you were a part of until you step back and look at the situation objectively. That's what I'm doing now and it is proving to be very interesting.
