Hi Deb - Well, the weekend improved from the date of the incident. The back off advice was so right on for this sitch. I went on with my plans on Sat. and left him at home (he was invited but declined before the incident). Sunday he came with me to the social event as planned and we had a pretty good time. He seems to have let go of his grudge for the most part. It was an eye opener to me to see how such a small incident can send them off the deep end. I have not touched the cell phone and don't plan to again. Back to baby steps again.

I hope all is going well for you, Deb

Take Care,
SP


According to the Buddha, praise and blame, gain and loss, pleasure and sorrow may "come and go like the wind," but happiness comes if you can "rest like a great tree in the midst of them all."
