Part of My relatives (nephews) was my worst enemy.
Was My oldest brothers son (nephews)

Worst enemy

     Some time ago (Wednesday, June 10, 2015. Peer Interview. What have you been angry enough? ), our conversation topic was,"What have you been very angry about?"

     This was what I have been feeling recently. I told my teacher Sue Ann about a sad story. I had been the co-owner of an engineering company with my two older brothers from an young age in Taiwan. I had been greatly involved in this engineering business for 57 years. ( I start the work-study program from the high school,)

     One day, my older brother died in his house while I was in America(2014). My oldest brothers son sold the family company and office. He withdrew all of the companys money from the bank immediately, without the consent of family members. They are making a conspiracy of  silence, He became rich in an illegal way. But, their conspiracy was brought to light by Local Tax Bureau, It is proceeding now.

      Since then, I have been getting angry for more than a year. Teacher Fu and Mei also understood this sad event. I lost my own share that worth about 200 million dollars(u.s.), made me very unhappy and depress, This sad event worries me.

     Sue Ann said, "Anger will hurt your body, Dont think about it, Let it be! Many blessings, good health will be yours."

     I deeply appreciated the words and kindness of teacher Sue Ann, Fu, and Mei.

     I realize that my evil feelings about part of relatives was my worst enemy..


Kevin.
This letter is from Teacher Kevin for me,


Jack,

       I am very sorry to learn of the betrayal of your brother. I can understand how this can be very distressing. Understand however, that your brother might be rich, but he is a thief. You, on the other hand, are a man of honor and much respect. that is something he will never have.

For me, I much more admire a person like you than any man of wealth .... especially wealth that was unfairly gained.
I hope you will see yourself as everyone else sees you....a man of honor.
Kevin.
