I have a very simple life. I collect books, I have a lovely job, I
teach Philosophy and I do therapy empowering and hekping others. I
have been very fortunate in my life. Yesterday was a lovely day I was
able to help an old Lady on the bus yesterday, I reresented a client
at his Personal Independence payments interview. The woman who
interviewed him was lovelym she spoke Welsh and she worked so hard to
put him at ease, she reassured this vulnerable frightened man and it
warmed the cockles of my heart, I saw a client later a young man who
had a few months ago tried to kill himself now he has a busy life and
is studying Philosophy and reading very widely. It was a lovely day
so I wrote about the old lady and many , many people commented all
were positive except two. I wont bother with one of them but I found
the tone of one most disturbing. This came from a Mr Colin Bowden of
Port Talbot Debate and Argue Facebook Group. His initial response to
the story was this “t can't be Hayley Cropper can it? One last
question, what is you're mind altering drug of choice?”
I
replies that perhaps his drug of choice was a lack of compassion. He
replied with this “What the fuck would you know of souls you semi
literate fraudulent fuck wit? One thing I am guilty of is being
baited to read your laughable blog, I click, dissapointment Hang on
Colin that Is another spelling mistake I think its spelt
disappointment
but what do I Know?) ensues, If you are unable to articualte (
Hey Colin you spell it articulate} a point on media then I suggest
you stick to what your good at, stealing. “
I
gather that Colin is referring to my mild dysplasia, my chronic eye
sight and the fact that I went bankrupt in 2009. However the next one
was most disturbing it read “You should be careful posting remarks
like that Martyn, you never know who will turn up at your place of
business with a sandwich for you” I rather get implication from
this that he is not offering to buy me a Cheese and Tomato Roll from
the cafe below me but is implying a knuckle sandwich. I am therefore
taking appropriate action. In a time where we have seen political
activists attacked and worse I find this most disturbing.
Now
I am sure that young Colin Bowden is a vegetaria n Buddhist who votes
Green who voted to remain and loves a multi racial society and was
just having a bad day because of the Christmas period. However from
where I stand he just looks like an unpleasant bully. He also
commented this rather cryptic observation. I dont think he realises
that I work “Thank you it was purcahased with money I earned. “ I
am afraid another quote comes to mind . “ A pretty face is nothing
if you have an ugly heart” Colin will probably think I am making a
pass at him oh well.........
