Trying to do the Christian Thing...

[Flamingo]

To the Cats...you guys are fabulous...while you did the right thing in your heart, the other person involved is still inflamed and cannot let go - to you he was intimidating and he knew that would affect you and affect you deeply. Most of us have trouble dealing with intimidating people as good people try to do the right thing in the right way...this person had to still have that control over you by stating what he did. It is time for you both to let it all go and much as you can, open the trash can and dump it in and close the lid. It appears in all respects you are beyond this now but still have emotional baggage to deal with and this really set it off. Not all people are Christian and do things your way...some like to hurt and will continue to do so. What i would have done in that situation (this is just me) is got up and walked out when that person walked in.

Mr and Mrs Cat, you are some special people from everything I read on this forum.

....you both give generously of your 'expensive experience' and never ask in return. Your graciousness to #1 sounds like it was not returned in kind. His loss.

People who hold anger, bitterness, vengeance, etc are feeding a corrosive force inside themselves. They only get sicker and sicker. ...while you can be free to live and enjoy life. If he wasn't so mean, he would deserve to be pitied.

Thank you Ryan, Flamingo, and everyone else. I am feeling better about it today, and I still do not regret doing it--even if for a minute or two I feel a little foolish.

Looking back, I have to say that I am surprised at myself, because at heart I am a coward. I do not like confrontration in any form, and usually run from anything of the sort. So that I actually did this yesterday, took me by surprise, as it probably did Enemy#3. 'Hub told me much later that he was surprised by my actions as well.

Msr. Ryan:

Your post has struck my heart. I/we are not that kind. I wish we were, but I cannot shake the animosity for that person. It is most difficult as much harm as he cost us and others. We once helped many people in which we desired to do in our retirement. He stole from us the ability to do so.

I can only say that the Atheist he is, is what brought him down. On April Fools day of 2009, at 11:30 am he posted his last ill will post about us, his pet project in life. At 12:30 pm that day, we went to Lowes and passed his office to see him taken on a gurney. He had an emergency open chest quad bypass. He later lost use of both kidneys. He is still alive I think but is in a vegetative state. I prayed for him to live and perhaps become educated in the fact that he does have a Supreme Being.

In the fact that he brought us to near penniless, this forum has been our redeeming thing to help others and it only costs us our time and heart.

I am going to PM you the forum website he set up. There were three others but this one survived in which he publicly humiliated us. I have no fear of my identity, but I shall send you the URL and anyone who wishes to meet us in pictures, and see what "Cyber Stalking" is about and can do. It cost us all of our retirement to fight this person and three jobs and our health.

There is more dangerous things in the World than Collection Agencies.

Look to your PM. 'Hub

And the other thing I know for sure is that Mrs. Karma is a real beach.

Yes, we did actually celebrate the Feast of All Fools, with a single glass of champagne, honoring the Karmic hit on Enemy1 a year ago that date.

I have to continually warn 'Hub that a satisfied smile on his face cannot and MUST not slide into a 'gloat', or else we will be equally in danger from the same Force.
