I try to avoid woman's discussion because there seems to be quite a bit of relational aggression - crazy but actually true - they even do this via a PC. I NEVER thought I'd see this here but it is what it is.

Ah, here is the problem, I was actually using it to decietfully appear negative, when my intention was entirely positive, but did so subtly - because to make death positive in the way I try to requires an old fashioned deity, and it was not a religious thread.

I did this through the pre-socratic philosophers, who I did mention later in the thread.

OP sounded a bit like Parminides, as does Temple Gradin /Claire Danes in the dead hornse scene in the movie.

In otherwords, in this case I did make it difficult, but it doesnt matter anyway, because I understand how to stay out of the doghouse better now. 8)

Maybe it’s dark enough over here that nobody would notice.

Just want to say hello to everyone <3 I'm definitely an unpopular one here on WP. I come and go, and I have a terrible time connecting with others here! Socializing is so difficult!
