Dear Tom,
I know how you feel. Believe me, I have been there. I have tried it all…angry shouting, swearing, violence, leaving, hiding, going to the police, the authorities, the boss…..everything. The key to survival is to not react at all. Learn to calm yourself, collect yourself, control yourself, keep to yourself, take care of yourself. The attacks will still come but you will be able to survive and later anticipate and later still, to fight.
Shhhhh…

Dear Brad– Thank you sharing in my aversion to the stories of the sky dweller and his son. Yours Anytime, baby, Tom Hardie
Dear Tom,
I think we could discuss our religious beliefs forever and never reach an agreement but in my mind, agreement isn’t the point. The discussion is the point. No one can win or lose as long there’s discussion and in the end once everyone comes to realize that there isn’t any real problem or threat, maybe, just maybe, people will stop trying to kill each other over religion.
Now, jealousy is a horse of a completely different colour. Let me assure you, Tom, that I don’t get jealous. I never look at someone’s car or house or man and come face to face with that green-eyed monster. And I don’t have any of those things right now. Jealousy is like a poison. It taints everything.
There are people who didn’t want me to respond to your post. I didn’t want to fall prey to their prejudices so here I am.
Dear Tom,
I don’t know about you, but I can never remember whether slander is spoken or written. Anyway, I always have to look it up. So this is what my dictionary says “Slander, slan’ der, n. A false tale or report maliciously uttered, and tending to injure the reputation of another; the uttering of such reports; aspersion; defamation; detraction.” And libel is “a defamatory writing; a malicious publication containing representations tending to bring a person into contempt, or expose him to public hatred or derision.” Well, at least that’s settled.
I’ve found that, to some, “the law” is like a religion. Except, of course, when it inconveniences them.
