Something true (and important) to consider...

God is LOVE (with Compassion).

Love (with Compassion) is Good/GODLY.

Satan is HATRED (with Malice).

Hatred (with Malice) is EVIL/SATANIC.

Choose wisely...

* * * * * * * * * * *

Distance yourself from some or even from many

if you need to, for however long you need to, if

that's the only way you can avoid further harm

to your health (emotional, mental, and/or physical),

and if it helps you to reduce the existing pain

that you already are dealing with; however,

don't allow yourself to harbor hatred or malice

in your heart or in your mind.

Here's one of my favorite 5-minute TED-Talk videos,

with an example of what it means to have

a truly good and caring heart & mindset:

"...Great leaders would never sacrifice people to

save the numbers; they would sooner sacrifice

the numbers to save the people..." -Simon Sinek

In the example he gave, when the company CEO

encountered a crisis and chose to preserve the

people, the numbers (the financials) ended up

improving! So, it actually was a win-win situation.

That said, even if profits had taken a permanent

hit, preserving the people still would have been

the correct thing to do. Listen to the presentation

from Minute 0:19 to Minute 4:50 to learn how and

why.
