Dear Lisa:

I sure hope you feel better today. You had such a difficult day yesterday. I hope you post today with how you are feeling.

In a post yesterday you wrote: “The logical odds are against me constantly be hunted down by bullies but I can’t avoid them. I have to get out of this cafe. It feels very hostile.”

On May 2 of this year, the day after you started this valuable thread, you wrote: “I was an outgoing kid with an open heart… I was bullied on school grounds… I was often called a baby or sissy for not standing up to kids that bullied me but my thoughts often went to wondering why they wanted to bully me?”

Your thread is a testimony to how damaging bullying is, how important it is that people in the position of parents, teachers, school employees will do everything in their power to interrupt bullying and prevent it, see to it that those doing the bullying stop doing it, and attend to the children who have been bullied, comfort them, help them.

You wondered, as a child, why they wanted to bully you. Now, as the adult that you are, at 48, you believe that you are  still being bullied, and wanting to satisfy the question why they want to bully you, you came up with a part answer: there is a conspiracy of sorts, a plan of sorts, by an entity of some kind that intentionally wants to hurt you, to punish you and it goes about doing just that.

Am I correct, Lisa, in my understanding that you believe the following:

For over forty years or so, an entity of sort intended and still intends to inflict pain on you, Lisa, wanting to punish you. In its intent to hurt you, it repeatedly, through the decades of your life, brings about events, coordinates those events, making them happen in such a way so that they result in you getting hurt. This entity’s aim is to hurt you.

Am I understanding correctly?
