Does that automatically make Russia our friend and all the nations of all the athletes' countries trustworthy? If so we have nothing to fear from nuclear arsenal buildups. No one will ever use them, right ? We have nothing to fear. That's a relief. I can stop worrying about nuclear missiles and chemical/biological warfare and hacking because astronauts/athletes get together in specific circumstances and don't kill one another. :( less

But be on guard for Refugees who flee for their lives/Immigrants/Muslims/Potential Terrorists from countries whose people HAVE NEVER HARMED US. Be very afraid. Stay terrified. They are the bad guys. Putin? He's a pussycat/teddy bear/honey bunch. What's to fear from him. Right? Trump knows these things. He wouldn't lie to us. Would he?

Real life is based on that which is not IMAGINED. Imagination takes you to other places you could never access by any other means. So does creativity. Now there are certainly times when creativity exists in the real world. There are times when that which was IMAGINED becomes true and real and exists as well. But if it doesn't..if what you IMAGINE can only exist in that other place it is NEVER fake. To me. Now what other people think imagination is may be something entirely different. I cannot think like other people. I can only think like me. I don't know if that's good or not so hot but it is what is. SIGH less

This quote is one of my faves by Dr. Wayne Dyer but I am struggling to make this have true meaning for 'me'... I am so so lonely, even am afraid to date b/c of my low self esteem, or to get my own place, etc... Do you think someone who has had anxiety for so many things could feel whole to date 'now' even when they feel tainted?

One of the first things Trump Junior said when he gave his speech was - "I'd like to thank the press - just kidding". The press wasn't there to cover politics they were there to cover a new business so it's free advertising for the Trump hotel and I figure he should of thanked the press for being there. It also showed me the Trumps have no desire to get along and work with the press. Cheers!

She was kind enough to accept it without destroying my pleasure in giving it to her and still has it. Have you ever stuffed up completely?

The increases range between 25 to 80 percent so that will mean the Universities will get more money to grow and improve their system and the merchants around the Universities will have more business. Maybe there will even be long term benefits - some of those well educated students might stay in Canada and help solve some of our problems. Cheers! less

Nevermind that a few moments later she was seen trying to get a better angle for a photo of the leaders and Trump together. It must be because she is racist that she sits on a couch during this meeting, right? Shouldn't we get rid of them all and hold a special election immediately!?

Do you think it's strange or normal to feel more empathy/loyalty to outsiders than you do to them? What kind of parents prefer others' kids to their own? What kind of citizens prefer strangers to their own fellow citizens? Something about normalcy and loyalty and love is missing there. Normally we prefer"us" to "them" though hopefully we like "them" and engage well with "them". Abnormally preferring "them" to "us" could be considered treasonous/traitorous. Of course as with all things IT DEPENDS. Right? less
