The very essence of being there and caring enough to reach out with love and a listening ear as we walk our paths side by side. Thankyou Thanks for such an interesting and thought provoking post.

I have my own inner dialogue about where the world is headed, but in the end I know there is no way others or the world "should" look. Only my own mental preferences. Of which there are 6 billion others. :) Thanks for bringing up this conversation! - Jeffrey Great post, Tamara.

Make room for me in that box. This is SO similar to a post I wrote recently about a New Thought minister whose invitation to a seminar claimed, "If money is not constantly flowing through your life, something is radically wrong with you!" Really? Like you, my visceral reaction prompted me to examine the parts of myself that were condescending, manipulative and judgmental. At the end of the day, it really is all about US, not the other person, isn't it? LOL! Make room for me in that box.
