TENANCY RIGHTS:
What was the persistent attitude and behavior of the participants?
It is the persistency of one's actions and attitudes which decides if one is expressing love or hate. Shorter-term emotions expressed from more positive coping behaviors might have been anger and optimism. Once one party to an interaction chooses to extend their form of involvement and to make it focused in its unwaveringness, the behavior and the attitude are extended into power carrying emotions, of which love and hate are two. The only way to cope with intense emotions is to mirror them, avoid them, or defend against them.

Withdrawal of oneself from the conflict environment allows us to avoid the negativity of others. This is not always immediately possible, as when one shares a place of employment, community, or residence. Adjustments and separation can be arranged eventually but immediate coping of a direct nature may be necessary. Also, simple avoidance, while beneficial to the spiritual, and sometimes the physical and emotional health, of the victimized more simply and directly allows the projective person to intensify their feelings of rejection and self-loathing by providing them with more time for their imagination to work. There are no perfect responses as the hateful person has chosen to deny those directions leading to harmony and enlightenment.

Simply reacting to hatefulness by returning what has been given in an "eye-for-an-eye" adult temper tantrum behavior leads to further escalation towards violence unless enough fear can be produced to pacify the victim into abeyance of the dominator. So my landlord changes the locks. I break the lock and forcefully return. So she enters my space and removes my belongings. I push aside anyone who gets in my way and throw my belongings back into the house.

Such mirror reactions often exaggerate the initial actions taken because the primary actions were taken in deception as when one is not present. Reaction must often be taken while the protagonist is present and when they have an opportunity to directly oppose. In this manner, the reactive victim opens themselves to abusing the rights of the protagonist at a more personal level than was directed against themselves. Abuse may not be met with justice by the legal system. Physical assault often is dealt with by the law.

Responding to hatefulness with optimism and caring (love) is an alternative we seldom find mentored in our schools, families, institutions, novels, movies, news media. Any direct response to a person in a hateful state of mind will largely be ignored, unheard, denied, repulsed. Acknowledgement is to accept the actions of the hateful person and make something positive from them. So, I took the change of lock as a freedom to no longer have to interact with the abusive landlord. I took the moving of my things to the driveway as assistance, albeit small and unwelcome, in getting my things to a truck.

I reverently was thankful for the location I had been offered on an immediate basis within the previous 36 hours ... that wasn't vacant 24 hours before that. I reverently was thankful for the manner in which the rental company had provided the truck to me ... which allowed me added time, if needed, and now needed. As I had learned to do with many efforts which seemed to me to be Herculean in the past, yet Guided for me to do, I focused on making the next move, not the totality of what was needed. Crate by crate and box by box, I moved.

God was by my side.
For someone aged 55, not physically fit, and having weathered multiple severe whiplashes, a severe lower back injury, pulled tendons in both arms and shoulders --- and been told by doctors not to lift more than 30 pounds, I achieved the "impossible". I had also confided to my landlord shortly before her choice to exchange friendship for aggressiveness, that I was looking forward to an emotional and spiritual rest after my move for I was exhausted from the frequency and intensity of the sessions I had been providing over the previous 6 months.

In spite of all of this "weakness", I moved the equivalent of over 3000 pounds of materials down stairs, up into a truck, down out of the truck and into a building with 2/3rds going down into a basement. I worked almost continuously for 30 hours. At the end, everything was organized and in place ready for use. no extended delays in setup, no interruptions of note in my lifestyle. I was centered and patient throughout.

I took known and Spiritually Guided precautions for the work.
I felt no pain or stiffness until after I had finished. I felt little sleepiness or tiredness until the last hour. Afterwards, I slept soundly for 16 hours. I was contented. JUSTICE was that I had done something extremely positive, for me, for my protagonist, for the new clientele I would soon have, for God. Winning is all a matter of whether you have done your best, whether what you wanted to achieve is best for many of those involved, and, who is on your side. I have the best of partners. Anyone else who chooses Spiritual Guidance, self-improvement, and love --- will also find justice.

What of our second EXAMPLE?

While the examples are from a Canadian Province, the legal complexity, detail, structure, formality, and injustice ... is common to most legal systems.

• Tenancy Rights (Ontario);
• Defamation and Libel (Ontario).

DEFAMATION and LIBEL:
The continuance of the Hate and Love in reference to the charge of defamation can only briefly be addressed here. As there was no replies or responses of relevance from the protagonist or her followers from the beginning of their choice to betray and victimize until now. I have little knowledge as to how they continued after I left their environment.

I have no need to know as I have quite enough in the positive arena to occupy my energies. I have no time for engaging the moral negativity of others. I assist individuals who want to improve their lives and their future. I am extremely good at it and it brings me great joy.

I was Guided to pursue an investigation of what would be involved and what would be possible, within the law. Much of that is elsewhere in these pages.

In brief,

• I could find a socially-directed lawyer who would take the case without fee other than a portion of the settlement.

• I could entertain the services of an excellent publicist, known to me, who would put the trial into many papers worldwide when it came to fruition.

• I could set out a long worded strategy for my legal team to follow in their examination and cross-examination of the witnesses.

• I could use the written references or in-person testimony of a minimum of 25 individuals who have known me over the past 30 years to refute whatever defamatory comments were made. More witnesses, more legal costs for my adversary to pay.

• I could expose my protagonist and each of her friends, family, and employees to on-stand under oath question grilling which would force them into testifying against her, or perjury for hours at a time. In the end, each would make themselves look foolish and hateful.

• A judgement might be reached after 2 or 3 years in which my protagonist is assessed $100,000 in court and legal fees plus a charge for personal damages. Of course, that would be worthless if she were penniless by then through poor judgement or by the design of her accountant.

Is that the justice I want?
The above points outline the "legal" justice route which could be taken. What I would sacrifice would be 2-3 years of positive directedness and relaxed contentment with daily joy in my life. The constant reminders drawing me back to relive the incidents and the planning of the case would be frustrating, anxiety producing, and depressing. And for what, pride of social reputation? A desire to reinstate business with persons who have demonstrated they are untrustworthy, belligerent, and focused on the negative! Vengeance, perhaps? Persons who have learned compassion through humility and empathy through experience and self-awareness have no time or inclination to favor such an infantile emotion.
