I don't think I can talk about it, and I'm not sure if I did, I could explain it as there was much more internal than external turbulence at the time. If those close to me were to guess my bottom most point, they would likely choose something more obvious. But, it was followed by a moment of awakening, and a slow climb.

It's a powerful thing to be able too look back at a point like this. Little did he know that by throwing those papers about he was doing you a favor. I'm glad that you got out, lil.

We always assume those around us are in a pretty good place. I try to remember that everyone just tries to appear that way, and it might not be so.

Your last line mk is so true. We don't really know what is going on with other people -- just as in every conflict, there is always something we don't know. I'm working on a question that touches on that topic. Will post in due course.
