Antidote to the Venom of Vipers

"Vipers are people who do not yet realize or want to admit that their choices are the root of their pain. Until they come to that realization and are ready to make better choices, it is easier for them to lash out at safe and easy targets. Their lashing out does not mean we did not do everything we could do or say to help, it just means they are not ready to fix the problem."
