Four Yellow Post-it Notes to self:
(1) Don't write off the capabilities of your adversaries - when the chips are down - to find the deep well of Christian compassion within and partner with you in prayer.
(2) The net effect of a 'bully on Viagra' and a 'bully with OCD' are the same - except the former rarely lies to himself and the later often does.
(3) Never trust a prayer request to anyone who honestly admits to madness but fancies himself a victim, for your trust will be betrayed, your private thoughts published and your heart will be broken.
(4) Try to remember: Never say never.
And this little gem from a blog across the pond:
"Just because something is understandable doesn't make it excusable."
