When malicious gossip or slander is passed along, the humanity of three people is thereby diminished .... the one who repeats the gossip, the one who listens to the gossip, and the one who is the subject of the gossip. When a person refrains from gossiping or tale-bearing, the angels rejoice from up above.

Mal - Thanks for opening up your heart and soul to all of us. No words offered could heal, it is much deeper and beyond that, and none of us can totally understand obviously. I realize that, and I am sorry. Just know that we are all with you, and we soooo love you.....truly love you. God is always near too. That is a forever thing.
