I have to say I was amazed and impressed by her courage and think she was incredibly brave to talk about it all. I’m wishing I could take on board all of these points!

Speaking of Lil’ Artie Schopenhauer: “Work, worry, toil and trouble are indeed the lot of almost all men their whole life long. And yet, if every desire were satisfied as soon as it arose, how would men occupy their lives, how would they pass the time? Imagine this race transported to a Utopia where everything grows of its own accord and turkeys fly around ready-roasted, where lovers find one another without any delay: in such a place some men would die of boredom or hang themselves, some would fight and kill one another, and thus they would create for themselves more suffering than nature inflicts on them as it is. Thus for a race such as this, no stage, no form of existence is suitable other than the one it already possesses”

It never ceases to amaze me the lot in life some people must endure. I have truly been humbled by Connie’s story. She is my hero. I think she is beautiful. I hope the mother-fucker who shot her rots in hell.

This truly makes me realize how trivial my hung ups about my body are … time to stop moaning about my fat arse and count my blessings!

It is nice to be humbled, and see things with perspective.

I have countless things to be grateful for.

Big, big typo . . . maybe one day I’ll type something w/o a typo! But I doubt it.

Sister Wolf, you have touched on a lot of issues, from how we see others to our own self esteem which is erroneously based on the superfluous, as you point out above. And then there’s the crazy people who harm others and get inappropriate sentences, the modern miracle of science/medicine which is able to reconstruct a face; and how small our problems are in comparison to human beings such as Connie Culp’s.

I’m going to be more positive and count my blessings. And continue to oppose guns . . .and bombs, and mines, and war, and all the bad stuff that really can screw up someone’s life.
