Dear Gibo,

A mature person is marked by an acceptance of self and others.
He can look forward instead of looking backward. He can chart his own life. He is open to new directions, innovative and explorative.
He knows that "finding himself" is an ongoing process throughout life, and for him doing is more important than having, experiencing more important than possessing. He takes responsibility for himself.
He knows that happiness and security lie within himself but he knows also how to use all the creative elements of his integrated self in his personal relationships through which both he and others can grow in a mutually enhancing way.

What is, was.
What was, is.
What is to be: you, molding your own destiny.

We can grow and go on growing, we can make the most of our lives, living up to our individual human potentials. Or we can blame others for our problems - stew in our frustration - do nothing but scaremonger - and die frustrated. Your choice. But, what a waste!

Much ado about nothing.

Have we really run so short of interesting topics?

Dear phoenix94,

Put your money where your mouth is -

Come up with one!

A bit new age for me Foxy.

Let he hath never addressed a rude word to his computer throw the first stone.

It's really disgusting the way that people go
around saying terrible things about each other
that are absolutely and completely true...
