I believe in God. I believe most people try to do the right thing most of the time. I still believe that even after a recent betrayal of my trust.It was just money this time, not COVID-19. I was scammed on-line. Do most people who get scammed stay quiet about it? Perhaps out of embarrassment? I think getting scammed is a story that is good to tell so we can learn from each other’s mistakes, and yet I am embarrassed because, well, it seems like such an “old person” kind of mistake—I am 56, which in my mind puts me somewhere between young and old. In your mind, maybe I am something else.
