sometimes sadness will come upon you, don't own it if you don't want it.
Let it go...
Let it go.
Sadness need not be with you for long unless you entertain it, let it dance with you and be with you, but why would you invite an ex that hurt you to come into your brand new fresh apartment to remind you of how and why you were hurt, and exactly how it feels..., unless you enjoy it.
So don't enjoy it if you don't want it, and if you don't want sadness to take up housekeeping in your heart, don't let it..
Easier said than done,.... I know.
Try anyway.

WHY?
Why is the issue about maintaining her privacy?
Why is the issue ONLY about female correspondents? Why is the issue about one gender being stronger or weaker than the other?
WHY?
Why are we not publicizing and promoting the fact that the men who did this are inhumane savages!?!
Why are we not focusing on the fact that throughout the world women are minimized, dehumanized, and denigrated and this is how it is done !?!
Why is there no outcry that this behavior is unacceptable!?!
Oh, right we have to worry about this particular victim and keeping it quiet and under control from the media.
Maybe we need a media frenzy so the questions can be asked about not only what happened in the attack... but MOREOVER:
What makes these men, or any men think it is okay to behave this way!?!
That is the real issue isn't it?
Not just the result, but cause itself....!?!
This was not a private occurrence, it happened in the open in a public square to a public figure...no woman is exempt.
If we continue to impose feelings of shame and allow women to feel as if sexual assault-RAPE is a private issue, the longer the problems of sexual assault-RAPE will continue.
Until it becomes as publicly detestable as cannibalism, the behavior that provokes a group of men in "celebration" to sexually assault-RAPE women will prevail.
Media, do your job; Publicize, criticize, demoralize the attackers.
What has happened here is not a private issue of one woman, it is a very serious deservedly public issue of all women everywhere.
We who have not been personally touched (literally) by this attack like to think we are above it, as we sit in our liberal cities discussing the politics of pensions and street cleaning, but the very serious issue of how humans treat each other is going unaddressed.
Can you tell?... I'm livid.
