"The friends" sounded kinda Stephen King or Dean Koontz ish
"The truth"
throwing pearls before swine(referred to me a lot)
dog returning to its vomit (referred to me a lot)
squashed by the wrath of Jehovah (a sister lovingly told me was to happen to me)
my kids blood will be on my hands(because of my decision not to ever return)
got to stop about to feel bitter again......
