In everything that's going on...  In all of these super-charged emotional states...  In all of these crazy issues that are just surrounding us...  Can we please please please remember that everyone involved are human beings and are allowed their emotions, even if we assumed they were emotionally solid?  Can we please not accuse or over-react or

I'm sure some of these pleas are directed at me, so I'll say this. Please feel free to let me know what you're thinking about how I'm handling this situation too. I know I'm flawed, I know it better than anyone just how flawed I am. I know I can handle things badly. But all I ever try to do is the right thing for others while still preserving myself. I think that's all anyone involved here is trying to do. Whether we're doing it the right way or not is another thing.

I've done what I thought I could do. I see there's light at the end of this deep dark tunnel now, and I can only hope that everyone else sees it there too. But if you think I'm doing something I shouldn't... then call me on it. Be honest and up front with me. I'm not an indestructible rock, but neither am I made of glass. Don't be afraid of hurting my feelings because they won't. The only thing I might feel is guilty for doing something wrong, even if I thought I was doing what I needed to, or the right things, or whatever. And I know you know that too.

I'm sorry. No, I wasn't directing anything at you. It was the situation... I didn't mean to hurt you or make you think I'm mad at you or anyone else. I'm not mad. I'm just confused and feeling lost. I don't know if what I'm doing is the right thing. I'm praying that it is, but I'm lost. I was writing this journal just trying to help myself. It's hard feeling like I'm between a rock and a hard place. I know everything will be all right no matter what happens, but I'm so afraid that I'll mess things up. I know I already have... Even writing this journal has probably messed everything up more than I ever wanted it to. I shouldn't have said anything about this and just remained impartial. i just can't stand seeing people hurting one another or seeing people being hurt

Oh, bb. Don't apologize! I wasn't trying to make you feel bad! I just wanted you to know that I was open to hearing criticism about how I was handling this xDD;; That I don't think I'm 100% right

Despite the situation, some actions ARE extremely hurtful and unforgivable, probably on both sides. Things cannot just be overlooked and ignored.

You have more worth than that. All of you.

Handle it like adults. Both parties. At this point, I don't think words like these are necessary - only action, or things to get your mind off of them until things calm down and people can learn to be rational.

I agree that we need to take an active stance on the situation. Without only causing more heartache to those already hurt by it.

Though some actions are hurtful, however extreme, they are never, ever unforgivable. If we can't find the strength to forgive, we'll just keep wallowing in pain and wondering why it isn't getting any better when we haven't been able to let it go.

We'll figure it out. I have faith.

Well, I think you can let something go unforgiven and move from it - it's like detaching yourself from a bad connection. I don't want this to drag you guys down, either, because you're not worth it.

I hope things get worked out for the best.

I don't believe that there are things in this world that can't be forgiven. I know people can hurt others deeply, and I know that it will take a while for forgiveness to come, but I don't believe that wrongs can not be forgiven. Perhaps it's my faith and the beliefs that I hold firm to that leads me to that conclusion. It takes a kind of strength that I have a hard time mustering in order to do it, but I believe that it is possible and we are all healthier because of it
