So, I have biological family that lives in California. I am not especially close with either of them, but they are still my family. And I love them, even with our differences in social skills and education. I'm even ok with having differences of opinion with them (this is bound to happen with anyone). But it is a whole 'nother thing to call and tell me that you are going to put a hit out on my MOTHER! And they expect me to be ok with that?!
It would be one thing to call and say this in a time of frustration, without true intentions. But it was clear that this was not something they had any intention of backing down from. And on top, of that they called a day later to remind me of our conversation from the day before and inform me they were very serious about their intentions.
The first day I tried bring some logic to their idiocy, but quickly realized that was getting nowhere. And then they swiftly hung up on me when they didn't hear what they wanted from me.
And so, when they called again today to remind me and inform me of their dubious plan, I finally gave in to what I had been wanting to say from the begininng, "You are allowed to have your own opinions, but please do not call me again to tell me you are going to have my mother killed."
Oh, by the way, you may be asking, who are these lovely people. "They" are my half-sister and her fake husband. So this man is saying he is going to kill MY MOTHER and his MOTHER IN LAW!
No person in their right mind would actually be thinking something like this purely because they had an arguement with someone and were now upset with them. We all get upset, that's part of life here on earth in these earthly bodies. But we must overcome our anger, biterness, and shear insanity in the face of these kinds of trails.
Truely, this whole situation is unfathomable to me. I can not wrap my mind around it. Not only am I dealing with loosing a dear friend and aunt last week, but then I learn my sister (the same one mentioned above) has lung cancer, and then the conversation turns to this. Give me a break!
