Probably posting this won't do any good. But I feel I ought to say it anyway.
This is totally irrelevant to nearly everyone who reads this journal, but the person to whom it is an open response is not someone whom I have friended. Therefore it is, well, a public post.
Maestro is the only adult who has gained such a deep and abiding trust of me as he has. I'm not going to rescind that trust because of a judgement he made a long time ago which he still feels was justified, and which he has reasons for that sound sensible to me.
I don't know what "believe everything that was said" means, nor do I know how doing so resulted in somebody getting burned when proven wrong, nor do I think this is a proper forum for asking after a less vague explanation - that would be a private matter between the asker and the asked, which this place (and post) decidedly is not. However, if you [and you know who you are] do in fact still want to keep me from getting hurt, and think a less-vague recounting of your story might help there, I'll welcome a more private approach through email or some such (my email would be my name on this place using the Google email service).
What I do know is that I've only rarely seen Maestro behave in a way that was less than polite or reasonable (and only then when he was quite stressed); and even less, I think, has he ever been other than gracious, kind, or respectful to me. I can't imagine any sane reason for him to have acted towards me as he has, unless it be that my perceptions have been honest ones.
I feel that there's more I ought to say, while simultaneously feeling that I've already said too much, so I suppose I'll stop now and hope it doesn't become an issue.
