I like what Aurelius wrote. That was very well written.

I have heard, or read somewhere, that it is actually normal to wish these things on people who have repeatedly abused and/or humiliated us. It is not normal, however, to follow through with it.

I have had several people on that list over the years, and it shifts and changes based on time elapsed, and my own circumstances. The farther away from the circumstances I get, the less power it all has over me, definitely.

I do still hope that there is some kind of cosmic retribution waiting for them. Dante's Inferno is full of descriptions of hell, based on the level of sin you participated in, in life. I do recall the abusers, and the reputation destroyers, have a special place all their own---and it's one of the worst. That's good to think about.

Wishes for healing....
