Re: [UUPoly-L] On coming out Poly

  Unfortunately, they "found" another reason to use so that I couldn't sue
  them.............I suppose I could have tried still but I was so
  distraught and broke afterwrds that I didn't think I had a snowballs
  chance in hell of winning. Couldn't have afforded(or still cannot) a
  lawyer. AND, I wouldn't have wanted to go back anyway, if they didn't want
  me there that badly.

   When you begin to touch your heart or let your heart be touched, you
  begin to discover that it's bottomless, that it doesn't have any
  resolution, that this heart is huge, vast, and limitless. You begin to
  discover how much warmth and gentleness is there, as well as how much
  space.

    If you got fired for that, did you sue their asses back into the stone
    age? Because you could and should have.
