Who is this witch?

     The witch is the mean person in any story. She could be 16 or 60, male or female, fat or skinny, rich or poor, but she's always mean. These stories are tailored to accommodate the stereotypical "old hag female witch" in the starring role. In reality, like I said, she could be 16 or 60, male or female, fat or skinny, rich or poor, but she's always mean.
     I just want people to know that this is not one particular person or group of persons, but the universal villain in all of us. We all have the potential to be mean, and if we choose to not behave, we automatically choose to wear the witch's cap. So, don't go looking for the witch from here to Timbuktu. She could be sitting right next to you. Worse, she could be you.
