Hi there, and i appreciate your condolences and dear Wilfred was a truly amazing man. You are right his influence in my life lives on in how I am living my life today and I am truly blessed. I don't know how I got to be so lucky with meeting this person and when I think back on it, I get such a warm feeling in my heart.
It's helpful to know some tips about Steemit, because to tell you the truth, I really have no idea about anything on this platform and i'll read the links you sent me. Much appreciated.
With regards to those two users, I agree they are both acting in a negative fashion and it's very sad and unnecessary. I see one user as taking pleasure in making others feel bad and the other user as someone who does not take pleasure in upsetting people, but gave in to being antagonized and that brought out the worst in her, I can see that.
I have a special place in my heart for the Indigenous people, since I completed courses in university on these people. I learned the atrocities that were carried out against them and it was very shocking and many Indigenous are traumatized today and greatly affected by the horrendous abuse they suffered.
As a person who WAS filled with anger myself, I can relate to these people and I see their anger and hate as crying out for love. They need healing. As we go through life, we hopefully improve how we live our lives and make better choices. Sometimes, we need someone to show us out of the darkness because we have a hard time getting there on our own.
I have reached out to this user and I have not gotten a response, so I will have to gauge how things unfold between our interaction together. If I feel that she is being negative or hateful, I will not allow that type of treatment and I will cut off communication. I will pray for both these people to look into their hearts and stop acting in cruel and hateful ways.

It's nice to hear from you and I appreciate your sincere comments.
J
