2A Daily News – Tuesday, August 28, 2012 Community people&events Davidsons celebrate 63rd Bad things happen to good people We all have that person or per- sons in our life that hurt us. That person who crossed a line that was sacred and came from a place of trust. Someone that you let into the private parts of your life exploited your kindness, your happiness and your sense of self worth. Someone you know hurt you, whether or not on purpose, and you are sad and angry. Someone took something precious and valuable away from you. Robbed you of the future you thought you had planned or knew you deserved. I want to tell you that you have Courtesy photo Mr. and Mrs. Bob and Joan Davidson are cele- brating their 63rd wedding anniversary. They were married on Sept. 3, 1949.

The pain you feel about what they did to you is as true and honest as the resentment you feel for being betrayed. Your feelings of disgust, hurt, and desire for revenge are jus- tified. You want redemption and deliverance from their self-centered control over your life. In the midst of your pain you have tried to put on a good show, a face of apathy and self- preservation. You have risen to what is expected of you because that is what good people do. Despite the fact that everything you do makes you wallow in what should have been, what could have been if only they hadn't hurt you. Sometimes you are living minute by minute. Sometimes hour by hour and if you are lucky you can live day by day until some- thing triggers the pain and you spiral out of control in your thoughts and the self pity that they planted in you with what they did. It seems crazy and unfair that they seem to have no remorse for what they did. They seemingly have no debt to pay to you or your loved ones who have lost a part of you to the pain that keeps you from being whole. They seem to be unaffected by what they did and you writhe in disgust when you see them some- where looking whole while you pretend to be unphased by their presence. Everyone who knows you under- stands your anger and is there for you to talk to about what has hap- pened and how unfair it is. No one blames you for how you feel and the harm you wish would come to your offender for what they did. You have every reason to want karma, God, Hells Angels or Swine Flu to take the wheel of your revenge bus. Facebook knows your pain with all your posts. Your diary has pages of evidence of how badly you have been scarred by what hap- pened. Your pet knows the tears you cried as they lay their head in your lap to offer you companionship in Several sponsors from the Red Bluff and Manton communities have opened a non-profit Ponderosa Fire Fund account at TriCounties Bank to aid in immediate relief to the fire vic- tims.

Faydra Rector You Matter your pain. Your mom, your siblings, your besties and your bunco group all know what happened and they listen and they care and then they go home to their own brand of pain. You didn't deserve what happened to you. Bad things happen to good peo- ple; people who love God, volunteer in the communi- ty, donate blood, give their money and their things away for the benefit of oth- ers. You didn't deserve what happened to you. Bad things happen to everyone at some point and maybe your num- ber has been up more than once. You didn't deserve to be treated the way you were. Humans are capable of anything because of free will and you were collateral damage to someone else's choices. No one would blame you if you never for- gave that person- Forgive them any- way.
