Thank you. Given the recent pain, suffering and unnecessary (d)tramaz, I thought it might be appropriate to post this. In eastern religion and culture, the lotus is the symbol of enlightenment, rebirth and transcendence. In reality, they can display great beauty and resilience while surrounded by the flithiest of conditions, not unlike the mess I recently had to survive through. From great adversity comes great beauty.
Speaking of adversity, in hindsight I've been told now by the principle player and her new 'best friend' that due to her ill placed, untrue comments she didn't think they'd do more than yell at me. I wonder how hard it would have been for her to he simply issued an apology and done the right thing versus stirring things up more. More energy was wasted by the ensuing whispering champaign than it would have been to merely have accepted responsibility and have gone back to tell them she exagerated out of anger.
