Admiration for your post Aishah...are you a lawyer? Be a damn good one.
Yeah, you pick on one type of people...may as well be pickin on all of em.
So sad. So fallible human beings. So easy to judge. Walk a mile in their shoes first and see how it feels. I consider myself lucky. I am not afflicted with any of those problems in your post. But, God help those who are.
Thank you for you post
