Senator Paul Wellstone and his crew and family died today in a plane crash. He was a great Senator and one of the good liberal democrats. My heart is heavy. He did so much good for so many people and causes.
He will be truly missed!
We cant afford to lose anymore like him!!! He was a great man! Wonderful and compassionate.
Im sorry to hear of your loss. I didnt know him but it seems like, in the last couple of years, all the 'good' people have died and we are left with these nasty, selfish and spiritually devoid excuses for human beings. What is happening with the world lately?
PS. I heard about the Washington sniper; i cant believe he modified his car so he could shoot though the boot and make a quick getaway. What a sicko.
Omg... are you serious? You are correct in thinking that today is truly a sad day. He did do a lot of good for many people. Well, he's in a better place now, right? RIGHT? OH GOD TELL ME HE'S IN A BETTER PLACE...
Life IS good and if it is not, then make it happen. I have seen people so destitute and living in darkness, but they turned their lives into something wonderful. All it took was some hard work and a few opportunities that they made for themselves. We all have choices in life and you have to deal with the consequences of those choices. I deal with criminals and try and work with them and they complain about the unfairness of everything, well nobody forced them to do what they did. It was their choice and they made it.
Yes, true. That's why i didnt follow a career in law. That and i didnt want to have to deal with other crappy lawyers! I love the idea of justice but unfortunately, it just doesnt exists most of the time. SQ, have you ever read Sophocles' 'Antigone'? It deals with the theme of justice and who or what is the decider of it. Is it the law or is it the gods above?!
Suzy, i'm sorry did I say that I was unhappy with my life and asked for suggestions and forgot? Are you suggesting Luz and I don't work hard or are "living in darkness"? Well? Yeah I didn't think so.
I am gonna ignore your rude comments. Justice system is screwed up but we have to want to change it and you cant do it by just complaining about it! We live in the world and in the world we are goverened by 'laws' which are the same as God's Laws. I can give you ten stories of biblical injustice that led to the ten commandments and modern law as we know it today! There is a very good book called the 'Genesis of Justice' you ought to check it out. It would take up way to much space on this board to get into as heavely as I could but you might want to read about it. The ten storie in the bible of injustice breaks down like this:
God Threatens--and Backs Down
Cain murders--and walks
God overreacts--and floods the world
Abraham defends the guilty--and loses
Lot's daughters rape their father--and save the world
Abrahamn commits attemtpted murder--and is praised
Jaob deceives--and get deceived
Dina is raped and her brothers take revenge
Tamar becomes a prostitute--and the progenitor of David the Messiah
Joseph is framed--and then frames his brothers
Talk to you later I have to take my puppies outside! Potty time!
"Suzy, i'm sorry did I say that I was unhappy with my life and asked for suggestions and forgot? Are you suggesting Luz and I don't work hard or are "living in darkness"? Well? Yeah I didn't think so."
Not directly. But I can read between the lines and the way you present yourself says you are not happy with life or yourself. I dont have to ask you anything. I say what I want, just as you do. If you cant handle it, then you are in the wrong place!
And I think it is the best place to talk about it!
Astrology and Religion have both been around a very long time and have crossed paths throughout history. Astrology and religion have always been hot button topic, if you knew anything. Start reading something other than this board and you maybe you will learn all about the links between them. Very interesting stuff. Then come back and argue with me because at the moment you dont have butter!
What is your town known for or what is the most unique thing that your town has? For instance, my town is known for their roses and a junior college drill team called the Apache Belles.
What is life all about? I mean, you're born, you live and then you die? Does it really matter what we do in between? Is it important or do we just survive until we die? Im wondering if its not such a bad thing to not have a career? What does everybod

I know this might seem strange but how do you shake an aquarius?
My aquarius friend really messed things up this time, to the point of me not wanting to be friends with him anymore, however, he thinks that if he stays away long enough either I w
Seeing as there are a few 'regs' here I was curious as to ppl's ages. Sometimes you can get a better perspective on how to answer a post if you know the age of the person you are addressing (esp. in areas of love). I am 36.
