toph,
as is true with any of us, some of our posts are more revealing than others. To me, your post here speaks volumes of you. You had the empathy to see what the woman who could not speak for herself was saying. You made a tough choice...one that had the potential for you to lose a co-workers alliance and yet you made it...what better evidence of strength of character.
You sound like a sensitive soul and that makes what you did even more impressive. Sensitive souls feel negativity more strongly than most people which makes risking someones anger doubly hard. Personally I worry that the bad karma of someones anger will jinx my car, job, family. Natural instinct screams out "fix it before it's too late!" Am I being rational? Doubtful ! Plus there's the whole "if I were perfect and everyone loved me (everyone loves a perfect person?) this would never have happened".
acceptance and approval? you have both from me.
