I've been mad. I've been angry. I've been furious before. But until yesterday, I'd never felt rage, complete, uncontrolled, consuming rage. I thought I had. But I definitely hadn't. Yesterday I started seeing red, and I've been struggling to control it ever since. I realized that I wanted to find and hurt a particular someone more than I've ever wanted to hurt anything in my life, someone I don't know, someone who hurt someone I love. I can't undo what he did, but I can make him wish he hadn't done it. And then maybe I'll feel better. I wish I could believe that she would feel better too.

It is very serious, and I'm trying to do everything I can about it without causing more trouble. People can be amazingly resilient, so that's what I'm hoping for here. In the meantime, I will control my vigilante urges (aren't you proud of me, Rich?).

This sounds serious. I understand your feeling, and also that you don't want to tell details. But I believe you should act on your sense of justice and obviously give all the help you can to the victimized person. I don't mean that you must bring a lawsuit or anything public, but you can feel justified in saying and doing appropriate things within the context of the situation.
Love you!
