Elroy, for the record, my attorney assures me the "the defendant's" insurance rates have gone up by about 400%-both for his own home and his income property. I know this man has a lot of money and maybe the aggravation of having his bank account nipped at by the raised premiums will induce him to be more respectful of his tenants in the future.
Elroy, I've grown so much in the last 2 years since I started this legal process. When I realized how preoccupied I was becoming with money and revenge (Baha'u'llah says "anger consumeth the liver") I became aware that I could no longer give any more of my power, my life, to the goal of wanting him to pay and suffer for what he did. I'm supposed to be fostering unity, to help make the world a better place. This court case became antithetical to my existence. Additionally, I feel had I moved forward on the case, all my personal growth gained from this would have been forfeited as I myself would have become victimized by my own greed-annother casualty of the "bottom line".
I hope you feel SOME assurance as I do that he'll be paying higher (much) insurance rates. Perhaps everytime he writes the checks he'll remember the little Irish woman that decided she wasn't going to take any more s****!
World Citzen!
