It seems I am clearly and presently unwanted in this forum for being “rude” as well as being “immature”.

I am in a dilemma. Professing no ill-intention for speaking what I believe is factually right, it seems that the very basic right to correct any wrong notions or misgivings has now been challenged. I am no villian. And I have no intention to apologize.

In the midst of travelling to Wu Dan Mountains, I wrote a poem for all of you;

High up in Wu Dan mountains flies my heart
I stand serenely, isolated from earthly being
The cool Easterly breeze never cease to caress my face
Calmly with quiet surroundings, my spirit flutter with joy
.. Exalted to deep meditation, I wake up with hope
Beyond the horizon, I see glimmer of lingering
Borne to and fro, beyond the will fulfill.

Life is wonderful…......

Mutantfrog,

I believe you are equally misled by what it means by ‘dear’. Below is the dictionary from New York Times.

dear1 (dîr)
adj., dear·er, dear·est.

Loved and cherished: my dearest friend.
Greatly valued; precious: lost everything dear to them.
Highly esteemed or regarded. Used in direct address, especially in salutations: Dear Lee Dawson.

High-priced; expensive.
Charging high prices.
Earnest; ardent: “This good man was a dear lover and constant practicer of angling” (Izaak Walton).
Obsolete. Noble; worthy.
Heartfelt: It is my dearest wish.
n.
One that is greatly loved.
An endearing, lovable, or kind person.
adv.
With fondness; affectionately.
At a high cost: sold their wares dear.
