Semantics

[The People]

We call them front runners. Or Elders as KA calls them. We say 'came forward' as opposed to split. For us everyone was always there. In some form. An event caused them to come forward as an individual. There was no split as we are still all joined together. Splitting is when you split your pants or split a sheet of paper. No longer joined.

We try not to get too caught up in things like numbers or terminology. Just about surviving. What helps us to not SI anymore (a rare, small one) is that we will have to tell T and PDoc. A rule. We survive because we have rules and most of us have a lot of faith in rules. The last T says it is because there were never rules in the house that we followed. Don't think. don't feel, don't tell.
