    someone discounted her and her way in a painful way which created a hole, sucking her in and removing her from the whole - it is her against the world.

    There it's a sunken place where Sharon fights for dear life - superceding her obligation to retain connection and community. Life - it seems - requires this fight no matter who gets hurt.

    Any suggestion of such an obligation is interpreted as a ploy for her to lay down your weapons, to surrender. The mere suggestion becomes a further act of aggression and proof of their treachery.

        Some of Sweet Thang's - sweetness and determination to make a way out of no way
    Each victory is bitter-sweet. She's victorious, and she's alone - again!
