[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 666365, member: 1550"] "This isn't personal. I won't respond until I read it over and can respond calmly. Maybe I'll get input from SO." When I used to shoot off letters before calming down, they weren't pretty. I beelined one right off to my brother after tossing out his letter that he sent me. And I hadn't even read it, but I was angry that he had the gall to send me ANY letter about what bothered me. I'm sure my anger made the letter incoherant. I was literally shaking with anger. I should have waited two days to respond. I may have decided to just write "Your letter was not read. I did not feel safe reading it and will read none in the future." That would have been so much better. I am learning not to respond when upset. There is no rush. [/QUOTE]
