Probably various amounts of both, since most things in life fall in the gray area between black and white. But, definitely cognizance on your part.

Sit high above the rest ... don't you.
As I ask a simple question
Cuts me off with his reply
He's been practicing for decades
Now he thinks I have the time
He flows in and out of riddles
Looking me straight in the eye
But it seems like something’s missing from the days when he was more my size.
Ten years older and I've finally found my pride
This old man comes rolling home to die
Old feelings make it hard to decide just what it means to me
Everything exists between black and white
You can twist and distort the most blatant of lies
Or just offer up solutions practiced only in your mind
I lost half my life to wisdom
So forgive me if I come off sounding bitter
If my words push you away
If I seem surprised to see you lying here in front of me
Just consider what you're asking and give me a little time
I'm still having trouble breathing because up to now I've never seen you cry
Ten years older and I've finally found my pride
This old man comes rolling home to die
Old feelings make it hard to decide just what it means to me
No son of mine
Should I be sleeping
No son of mine
As if you never understood that I don't need your help
Don't have to save me from myself
Or take me out to prove that I should live my life like you
As I ask a simple question
Cuts me off with his reply
He's been practicing for decades
But I am listening this time
He flows in and out of riddles
Stories change without the wine
But at least he seems much clearer on how it feels to be my size
Ten years older and I've finally found my pride
This old man comes rolling home to die
Old feelings make it hard to decide just what it means to me
What it means to me ...
What it means to me? -

Rumor has it that they escaped after disabling their capters with mind-numbing monotone talks from last years discrict convention. The last captor was subdued with the hilights of the last decades dramas.
All fun assiide it is good to hear they are safe but it is still sad for the families of the the ones that were executed.

How has the org changed you emotionally?
by obiwan ini'm just wondering how everyone was changed by the wts emotionally.
i find that after going through being df'd and the shunning, the general loss of everything that i'm much harder, i give people less sympathy than i used to, things that are seriuos such as deaths and the like just don't move me much.
i feel desensitized, sorta detached i let so much just roll off my back than i used to.

Obiwan,
Be careful not to confuse the process of maturing (ie the wisdom that comes with experience) that allow you to mellow your reactions, and pick your battles. It may not all be emotional hardness but a combination of lessions learned and resilliance to changing situations.
