Hysterical - oftentimes - describes it better I believe!

Haha ok . It is a measure of the extent of divergence in public opinion, that one person's truth is another's satire

In a world such as ours, if you're not angry, you're not listening.

The essential truths of our existence, usually leave one quiet and peaceful

The world is never free of its dramas and grave injustices

Do you follow the Buddha? It sounds like you do.

I find that detaching myself from this world is calming. In fact, I wouldn't have what mental health that I do if I didn't.

I appreciate what Caitlin has to say about spirituality, except that she goes a little deeper than I am comfortable.

Indeed I do

It is calming because it allows you to connect with what is real

Happy you have enlightened me, but I am beyond that point.

Rest assured, not in a way a self referential mind believing it is doing God's work by getting angry, would make itself believe it has.

One last thing - even though it looks to me a HUMAN MIND as angry as yours will barely listen forget about understand - How anyone makes peace with more weapons is beyond comprehension - of course not for an angry, deluded HUMAN MIND.

"Fighting" for peace is as much a MISNOMER, as putting out a fire by pouring more gasoline into it.

Those forces at work are BEYOND COMPREHENSION for THE HUMAN MIND. Fighting FLESH AND BLOOD is exactly the opposite of what is required.

Read FAUST from GOETHE - or THE BIBLE with an open heart for that matter - AND then walk the walk and you might be getting a grasp on the monstrosity every human being is moaning about - INCLUDING CAITLIN IN HER POSTS.
