Your sentiments are much appreciated, David. Thank you.

There's always the other side, and they likely view it differently. Actually, I remember I wrote a piece on The Shortform - there are 3 sides to every situation:

~ your side

~ my side

~ the truth

Still, I felt bullied and I was reactive.

Am working on forgiving myself first.

Warm smiles your way. Thanks again (for publishing it as well).
