SMILES

Great response from Amgula. It still hurts but the pain
doesn't last that long for me any longer. It just tells me that
people will learn someday. I had a foster mother that told me
when I would run home crying because someone teased me, that
someday they would experience there child running home to them
and how they were teased maybe they would remember how it was
when they teased me. For what its worth, it was consoling for me
but as I also grew up, some of the kids I went to school with
never did because I went to my 30th class reunion last summer and
like I said. Some never grew up. That is life and I have empathy
for them. I consider myself the very lucky one. I have found
peace and happiness in my life and I am the center of my
universe, not someone elses'. Thanks
