My daughter has looked forward to going away to school. She took two years at the community college, and now is finally off to a state school 2 1/2 hours away. She is overwhelmed, and very lonely (the dorm is a quiet one- and when she gets back all the doors seem to be closed). She is not connecting, and misses her life at home (she worked and voulnteered with older folks - 20s -60s.. who she used to complain were so much older than her- but now she says she would trade a life of college for her daily life at home). She HAS had depression in the past, so it's a fear.

It breaks a mom's heart to hear your baby (the oldest, but Still - she'll always be my first born) crying.

Is there some wisdom anyone can give me to get MYSELF through the missing her, to give her wise advice but not tell her what to do, and help HER help herself?

It's a sad night here.

Signed,

Brand New College Mom

Every effort should be made to recover the miners, but other miners should not be asked to overly risk their lives. Even if this is only a mission to recover bodies, everything that can be done, should be done.
In W.V. and Ky where I worked as a miner, Coal companies have a way to recover valuable coal that cannot be reached by conventional means and the same process if needed could be used to recover the bodies.
The process is called "mountain-top removal" and is touted as the cheapest and safest way to get as the precious items beneath the mountain-tops.
Are the bodies of these brave men worth as much as the black coal they died for

without a god to declare purpose, life is in a larger sense, meaningless. why care?

nevertheless, we do care. and it's this caring that, in effect, gives hope. from this, a set of values and perhaps a meaning to life can be found.

this brings up the question: why does anyone anywhere have this desire to make the world around them just a little bit better? having this motivation for no reason seems almost irrational. isn't it more logical to be apathetic?

since ill be moving to the uk someday, i dont want to forget my Spanish. i would love to find people who will speak it there lol. unless i find people who speak it there, then ill be more prone to forget it over time. especially my Spanish writing skills. i know i wont always be able to talk to my family on the phone, it just wont be the same than living with them and speaking spanish with them. please dont take this hte wrong way, im not in any way saying that i will refuse to integrate into British culture, i am willing to throw my American ways out the window LOL. but i certainly dont want to forget my first language when i move there, i will just want to find someone to speak it with. i would be devastated if i did lose my Spanish.

I'm a guy, not a lady. I plan to wear a sarong, a t-shirt and kukui nut necklace my entire visit with board shorts underneath for hitting the waves, with Teva sandals?

What do you do with your sandals while you're snorkeling? Where do you get those surf shoes that you can wear with your swim fins and avoid burning your feet?

Do some people say "hon" or "honey"? It's really annoying. I don't care that you're old enough to be my mother, don't say "hon". It's condescending and it sounds like you're trying to assert your supposed authority through your age. The point of the internet is that it's a level playing field by virtue of its anonymity. So next time you even think about saying "hon", stop.
