Every time I kid myself that I am ok
that I am past it
I get slapped upside the head again
with the truth
how can all the progress that I have made
get flushed down the toilet
with just one word from you?

Why do we allow one person that much power? I say this because I have allowed it… Well done!
Thank you, Dale, I appreciate that.
I think most of us have been guilty at one time or another.
Some people have one goal in life and that is to hurt others. If you’re the person being hurt, just remember that you don’t have to play the game. A cruel and hateful person gets off on your participation and can’t knows he can’t play alone.
