Frederick Perls said "I do my thing, you do your thing ... If we don't meet, it can't be helped". One psychology textbook I read stated that he was saying that we don't *have to* have someone else in our life, i.e. a mate, to be healthy psychologically, although it is beautiful if it does happen to work out that way.

Was Perls wrong about this?

before you were alive, you were nothing, right ? you dont remember anything at all and you didnt exist , so (religious ideas aside) if death is 'nothingness' then WHY is everyone so scared of it ? in a way we were 'dead ' for years before we were born so its nothing new.
does my theory cheer you up ?

Sometimes, you need a second opinion in all aspects of your life...but, what is so wrong with trusting what you are feeling inside? This can go for anything you are questioning about YOUR own life...

Being an advocate for the mentally ill, I did a piece at a newspaper forum on health care and for the government to be able to help those that have mental problems. Many of the health insurances refuse to give medications and hospitalization for those that need it. A few people on the forum stated (adamantly) that the mentally ill should be sterilized so that they don't procreate. It really kind of blew my mind. What do you believe?

i dreamt of entering my parents home and standing above my entire family from the balcony i said to them, "why was i not invited?" ... and they looked at me with surprised faces. i became very angry and started to yell at everyone. then my mother inturrupted and said, "youre getting married!" ... my anger continued but i shut my mouth, turned my back so they couldnt see my face, and although my body hated the thought of marriage my mind told me to smile. that is when i woke up.

its odd to me i would have a dream dealing with marriage ... there is nobody in my life that i would even consider.

for some reason i dont believe this is a dream of marriage ... what else could it mean?

then just the other day i closed my eyes and had a vivid picture infront of me. it was of my daughter perhaps around the age of 8 or 9 standing beside a golden retriever while both looking out french glass doors.
