Responses to "a letter to a heartless landlord"

I am one of the folks on your "eviction woes" list. I wrote to you about my
landlord's decision to occupy which sent me into the rental market. I am
also the one who wrote to you about the "victim" notion and the purpose for
banning together when issues of this nature occur. Currently I am without a
permanent address and having faith that something will show up soon.
After being very busy this weekend and finally sitting down to read my mail
today, I am going to offer you a bit of friendly advice. From experience I
write, DO NOT SEND DEMEANING LETTERS to anyone involved here despite how
unfairly you feel you are being treated. Each correspondence may be used
against you in a court of law. Your anger really seems to me to be bubbling
over the surface. I would advise you to tone it down a bit. I too loved my
house and the home/office I ran my design buisness out of. Some "things" in
life just need to be let go of, especially if they are not yours in the
first place! I am in favor of your fight but, please try to do it a bit
more peacefully. No one likes anger and people do not hear you when you are
swimming in that emotion. Once again, I only write this from my own
experience and learning the hard way.
Get yourself a good attorney and prove that their children are not
(nor have they ever had any intention of) moving in. Then, after you have
won the right to stay, take all the time you want and find yourself a new place
to live. You will not bring yourself good Karma in a house that has had so
much tension in it. (again I write from experience.)
I hope that you are not offended by my sugggestions and that you proceed with caution
and a centered attitude. You will gain so much more in the long-run.
Cheers,
sue
