		<description>You are so right, my loved ones that have passed are on my mind at some point almost everyday. This keeps them alive in my heart &#38; in my memories. Memories to me are so precious! To me they are one of the most valuable things on this earth! Thank you for helping ease my uncertainty!</description>

		<description>You touched on a point here that I have always had a fear about. When you hear these stories of people who have had near death experiences and they claim they saw a white light or a loved one... is this just your body/brain creating a safe place for you, kind of like when you are sick &#38; your immune system kicks in? Or are these people really experiencing something?? I guess we will never know until it’s our turn to find out. The only thing that makes me believe that there could be life after death is ghosts. But then again I have never seen one myself so who am I to say they truly exist either. Its all comes down to faith I guess and I have plenty of that! So here’s to hopeful thinking!</description>

		<description>Dear Kate,

I saw a very interesting video on youtube called 
"the four horsemen". It's a conversation between 4 authors whose works have angered the religious right (christian, jewish, and muslim). In it Christopher Hitchens, author of "God is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything" says in response to the idea that his words have offended the faithful, that we should all be offended by the general proposition that without 'belief', we have no way to gauge right and wrong. 

Here is a link to the video:
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-869630813464694890

I would love if you watched it and gave your thoughtful review.

Thank you,
Billy</description>

you get no argument on your last effort there...i am both erotic and sensual in a betty crocker way.

meeting you and Laney in Stockholm was a disaster for me, I  knew nothing of your criminal bg's.
i understand that WW11  was a major set-back for you both...yet in Dr.Bassinger's client files [which of course, you know I am privy]  the time spent in Berlin just after the war  that ....was then...and this is now..you must get on with your lives, what little time  ~~~you have left~~~~ I also know that Laney suffers from 'Stockholm Sydrome'.
how very existential!!
waiting to hear back---sorry for the delay.
I have been in rehab for 4 months.  
Doctors feel it was from my dealings with the two of you  that was my undoing..

ps howz that rash??</description>

		<description>Well  Y. Y., 
You are well versed in 'potential stressors'.
The key word here is 'potential'

Situations that cause stress are unavoidable, it is how we react to them that counts. 
We cant control all the events, people, and places in our lives that place demands on us, but we can learn to accept those things we cannot change. and learn to manage how we deal with them.

In your case I would check out why it is you have INSOMNIA...this is usually cause by chronic stress, making it difficult to get a restful night's sleep - can interfere with our body's mechanism for recovering and repairing itself.
Not being able to sleep prvents us from recognizing and dealing with our problems rationally.

I am strrrrrrrrrrrreeeessssssssssssed out.

I am aware that a death, illness, divorce, even just moving or changing jobs in supposed to be pretty high on tension scale.

I cannot for the life of me come up with my problem...other than not wanting to venture out of bed ...  or talk to other humans. 
oh yeah I have over the top insomnia too. Y. Y.</description>

		<description>I have to agree...
Never forget that HITLER was a CHRISTIAN.

whatever Wright is trying to accomplish
he is setting civil rights back decades..
and totally ruining the campaign for Obama.

I believe the government is behind it all...
read this....paraphrased from Kurt Vonnegut...before his death. 


"I was once asked if I had any ideas for a  REALITY SHOW... a scary TV show...
I gave them one that would make your hair stand on end:  "C- STUDENTS FROM YALE.....
George Bush has gathered around him upper-crust C- students who know no history or geography, plus not so closeted white supremacists, aka Christians, and plus, most frighteningly, psychopathic personalities, or PPs, the medical term for smart, personable people who have no conciences. "

		<description>At first I was like cool ok Barack's not going to let the media tell him what to do - he stood up
for this guy and was able to expand the race discussion with that great speech he gave. Then this idiot preacher basically throws gas on the fire instead of just letting sleeping dogs lie. At that point it was like he cared more about himself then Barack who gave Wright a graceful way out of the limelight. I'm glad Barack responded the way he did
and basically disowned Wright. Wright is just as bad as McCain's (McBush) crazy preacher Pastor Hagee who says the Catholic Church conspired with Nazis against the Jews and that Hurricane Katrina was God's retribution for homos. 

No one seems to notice that the fundamentalists all over the world are saying crazy ass shit-
The muslims, the christians, the left, and the right -- all have these dangerous fools.

Meanwhile, while we're distracted by this all this nonsense, people are losing homes, the US dollar is in the shitter, China is emerging as the next superpower, unemployment is skyrocketing, our country lost all its credibility, the stock markets are plummeting, our defense is in shambles, and our soldiers are committing suicide at an alarming rate. 

Wright does have a right to say whatever he wants, so does Hagee, but I wish the distraction games would stop. We're hurting and the govt wont help, the preachers are insane, and I'm so afraid
that McCain will end up extended the Bush admin policies if we don't start focusing on what's important.
