Say,father.Give me attention
How about God?
He gets enough.
I thought he might give you some
How will I know?
Well,look at the Jews and weep
I don’t want to think about that
Neither did they.
Well, they must have done something wrong
And you have not?
Well not enough to deserve torture and death.
Who decides?
That’s what I wonder.
Maybe it is beyond us.
You want to play?
Yes, but what?
How about a DVD?
What is it?
Civilisation by Kenneth Clarke
I think civilisation is a failure.
It’s true there are more wars.
Let’s go out into the woods and climb a tree
Why?
So we can look into Mrs Smith’s bedroom window and see her get undressed
By whom?
That’s what we will find out
~It won’t be us!
How true!
Still all men are voyeurs
How do you know?
I’m just passing a remark
Well.I am living with a woman
That’s a sin
Well sex is a sin if you do it in a car so may as well sin at home
Sex is not a sin.But women get pregnant
Is that why some men are gay?
Well, they had mothers.
But they don’t want to harm a virgin by impregnating her
No, but God did and look what happened after that!
We don’t want to see anyone crucified
Yet we let them be killed by snipers,bombs and their own leaders
I know.
Let’s go to the pub and get drunk but not make passes at girls
Just boys?
Nobody!
So it’s all DIY now
It makes sense.In a way….. but where is the whispering in the ear, the laughter and the petting?
You’ll have to get a computer programme to laugh for you
But will it cuddle me?
That’s what we are all wondering.Amen

Kali Munro, M.Ed., Psychotherapist

Have you ever noticed how conflict can get blown out of proportion online? What may begin as a small difference of opinion, or misunderstanding, becomes a major issue very quickly. Conflict can be difficult at the best of times, but what is it about online communication that seems to ignite “flaming” and make conflicts more difficult to resolve?
There are a number of reasons to explain why conflict may be heightened online. One is the absence of visual and auditory cues. When we talk to someone in person, we see their facial expressions, their body language, and hear their tone of voice. Someone can say the exact same thing in a number of different ways, and that usually effects how we respond.
For example, someone could shout and shake their finger at you, or they could speak gently and with kindness. They could stand up and tower over you, or they could sit down beside you. How you feel, interpret, and respond to someone’s message often depends on how they speak to you, even when it’s a difficult message to hear.
In online communications, we have no visual or auditory cues to help us to decipher the intent, meaning, and tone of the messenger. All we have are the words on a computer screen, and how we hear those words in our head. While people who know each other have a better chance at accurately understanding each others? meaning and intentions, even they can have arguments online that they would not have in-person.

Alfred liked the Guardian but not for mating

There was no shame about being the Pope’s daughter and no doubt they were too involved in politics and making money
They were allowed to be married in the early Church but some like the Medicis or Borgias had children but were not married.

Before my husband died, he was put into a rehabilitation unit and made to doe exercises.I tried to take him home but they persuaded me not to.After 1 day he had pneumomia.
Well,I nearly had to report him as when I went in on the Sunday afternoon,I sat on his bed and he fell over onto my bosom in a rather excessive manner.However his face was quite dark,almost black.
I asked him if he was depressed and he nodded
Then the person in charge ran over to me and said, his blood sugar is 2 and his BP is 60/40.Will you help me to put a special tablet full of something like glucose into his mouth?I helped him.But unless he could eat.. it was no good and he had pneumonia as well.
In fact my husband was dying.He had no oxygen in his blood and there was no doctor.
So instead of claiming he fondled me illicitly, in public I said he wanted to die on my bosom.Which seems a reasonable request.
He was taken to hospital where he was treated so well it was very pleasant as he smiled again before he died.It was one of the most beautiful moments of my life and the saddest
So don’t let them send anyone you love to Rehab when they need a hospice.
