I'm still sick to my stomach, though now for slightly different reasons. At least I'm not so appalled anymore, so in disbelief. Talking about it has helped, but it has also contributed to my stomach churns because of revelations as a result, and having to repeat it all ( Read more... )

There are infinite sides to every story.

We are all human, with inherently human failings.
