Correction to my last post. Bleeding is more realistic. Man and his machines destroying the earth as depicted in Avatar is the more poetic version.

As I thought about this topic I decided that "oil spill" was not the appropriate term to use. After all, it's more like bleeding. Then I thought, "that's what's happening, the Earth is bleeding to death". I know I know, it's already been done in Avatar with a tree but isn't bleeding much more poetic?

i've always been told that i have a very good personality, that i'm humorous, etc.. one elder called me over and said that i was "smiling too much".
the other elders talked to the elder who counseled me and he came back to say that i should be like i was .
.
As an elder I once went over to an 83 year old sister's apartment ALONE to check on her.
I was counseled by another elder for doing that he said I was supposed to bring another elder along.

well, first off, iam new to the forum here, i registered maybe a week ago???
sometime around there, but anyway, i do have an honest question.
i guess a little background about me might be helpful and if not, at least therapeutic.
You will find your God on the other side of guilt. The guilt is one of the hardest things to shed.

i am new to this board after lurking for awhile (thanks so much for creating this place simon, and for everyone's shared thoughts!).
i am going crazy because i have recently allowed myself to begin thinking (and it is so fun!
) and i am an outspoken person, and it is very hard for me to keep my opinions and discoveries about this place under my hat!
Girl, you can share anything with us.
