As for Bear - feeling very sad for you and your troubles. Although how we get to being who we are can often envoke painful memories when remembered (and indeed at the time too), it's best to think that at least we can put something back into the world which is what we would wish for, thus makeing the bad become fruitfully good instead

I do not feel sorry about it at all. In hindsight; it was a blessing. in giving me the inner strength I would need later in life.

I only told of my experiences to teach others that we can overcome hellish conditions.
