So I've done some thinking about my post regarding my hometown yesterday. I have begun to think that it is not completely fair. I should not accuse everyone that lives there or ever lived there of being hateful.
There are some really good people that still live in my hometown. People who are not, and were not, cold and cruel. I am sure there are people there whom I do not know personally that are none of those things either.
I do not have only sad memories of my home town. I also have many pleasant memories of my childhood there. There are places and people there that I will always remember with fondness. I imagine also that I am the person I am today because I am a sum of my experiences, not the least of which occurred there.
So if anyone read this and thought I was being too harsh and angry, forgive me. Though what I said was true, from my viewpoint, I do not mean to indicate that everything about my hometown is bad. I was having a moment of unpleasantness due to some painful memories and I was overwhelmed.
