I searched through a lot of dust and clutter to find my Hello Kitty i-zone camera. I remembered it recently and wanted to find it and see if I could still use it. I really like it, and I really do want to use it again... but the maddening thing is that they've stopped making these, along with the film for it. I bid on some film for it on ebay,

You have to admit, with the way your post was worded so vaguely, and it having to do with "spiritual" stuff, there weren't many other things I could have thought of that would make you want to delete me.

Either way, it seems rude and selfish to just up and delete all your "acquaintances" just because you never connected with them on a deeper level. I have had long-time acquaintances turn out to be very close friends of mine later on. If you choose to cut off those people from your life, you're choosing to cut off whatever promise of a deeper relationship you might have had with them. And I really don't see how having "acquaintances" on your friends list could/would drag you down, spiritually. Everyone has different levels of friendship with different people. You can't always be picky and just go "I want ONLY close friendships". Especially with the fact that even though you're close friends with some people right now, in a year or two you might not be. People change, and friendships change. I'm not as close with some people as I once used to be. If I had cut off everyone else in my life besides my closest friends when I was in high school, I wouldn't have some of the close friends I have today, because they were acquaintances back then.

Anyway, if that's all it is, I still don't see what offense there is held against me and anyone else you took off your list. I don't see how it would benefit you to have less friends in a situation where you might be struggling. But suit yourself, and best of luck with those deeper relationships.

I understand that you can't identify with the person that I am and the needs that produces in me. But as my comment alluded to, the spiritual aspects I'm dealing with are affected by LJ itself. I did not say it was because of the people on my friends list, only that because of this realization I needed to change my interactions on LJ. I'm sorry you took that as meaning something derogatory towards you and that I so obviously hurt your feelings, Rose. That was never my intention.

Best of luck to you as well.
