Ask Amy: Positive Penny meets Negative Nancy
Amy Dickinson, Tribune Content Agency
on
Dear Amy: “Hurt and Angry” wanted to write an angry letter to her uncle, who had not stepped up when Hurt’s parents were ill.
I’m glad you told her to write the letter – but hold off on sending it.
Years ago, I sent a letter written in a white-heat, and it terminated the relationship. I now have a different perspective. I wish I hadn’t done it.
— Missed the Mark
Dear Missed: When I face this sort of challenge, I tell myself, “I can always react … later.”
