Tracy,

I'm sorry to see that you are feeling this way. I understand how you must feel and that you certainly have your hands full.

I try to allow people to exercise free speech in as much as I am allowed to so I don't interfere with the natural exchange of information, but if anyone is unkind in their response to another person, it is simply a reflection on the person being unkind.

The best we can do is state what we believe to be true. If someone wants to be unkind to us for that, they have the right, but with it they are discredited in the mind of many (or most) people who instinctively understand that those with the most kindness often (but not always) have the best truth or are at least the most likely to find it.

In fact, it is in the contrasting shadow of unthoughtfulness that the light of our kindness is most brightly revealed.

So long as you are kind and have a clean conscience, you have nothing to fear.

Hang in there. Your participation on this forum has helped many people and will for a long time to come.
