Hi Maryann--

Your response has me thinking, especially this part:

"....rather than heaping opprobrium on her it caused me to take a close look at myself. We have met the enemy, and she is US."

"We have met the enemy and she is US" gets me. Thank you for making me ponder. How are we are own worst enemy? Thank you for bearing with me in this conversation.

Sincerely,

Alice
