  i took the advice of some here and "went to the press".

  here's the resulting article: http://www.monticellotimes.com/articles/2009/04/09/community/879zimmerman.txt.

  Thanks,

  I think part of the reason some might have more of a problem listening then others is your geographic location. Some areas the speech you listen to daily and that you have yourself (mostly in the southern US) is more slow and drawn out. If you live where people naturally talk faster, you had no problem with the man. I admit he was a bit irritating, but I had no trouble keeping up. I don't talk that fast myself, but I hear people that do.

  At any rate, I agree with him 100%.

  Is love more fragile than hate?

  by White Dove in

  i posted this on fb and got 45 comments and a good fight in it.

  the comments on fb were equally split between my coven mates and posters from here.

  thought i'd try it out here and see what happens with comments from all xjw's.. "white dove is pondering life: it takes two to make love, but it takes only one to make hate.

  I think hate is much stronger, it seems to feed itself. I don't know why, you would think love would be stronger. Hate takes so much energy. But all the energy you put out seems to feed the fire somehow. Haters seem to always have some in reserve to sound off with on almost every topic.

  Sad story.

  It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year...

  ...to make donations to both local and national charities in the spirit of christmas and all.

  i don't know about different locations, but in ours the charities will ask the local grocers and banks to collect for them and give the donor a little something in return.

  most often this is little more than a decorative slip of paper that is displayed with the donor's name on sort of a wall of fame by the entry way.

  The journey is all. If you live for some far off ideal you will find your life gone before you know it. Living in the moment, thats the most important thing of all. Sounds like you have that all figured out.

  Its an adventure, for sure, enjoy!
