There you are Dave, chakras in a nutshell. Now you don't have to buy the book. I will add, that there are other Chakra interpretatiions available, but this is pretty much an accepted description. susan
“Kent, one coot(?) is missing that holds the bar in place. The floor has a couple of thin holes in it til it leaks. The zipper on the main door is broken. It's continually gets hang up. One of the poles that supports the tent is cracked. The plastic will be I guess the plastic part doesn't here to split a little bit. It's contained in the metal guide and the guide but it it couldn't last too much longer and the rain flat the sealant tape is coming up. If you wanna keep this tent it needs to be re sealed it completely. Also there's one extra tent pole that doesn't belong to this tent and it's longer than the others and it should be returned to whichever tent it works with. I think other than that the tent is ok but of course it's in pretty bad shape over all.”
Brilliant, completely fraking brilliant Dave! I wish I'd thought of that so I didn't have to make an arse of myself by asking the question. Regrettably I'm 40 something and just now getting over the whole "Eww, gross, boys are aliens" kinda thing. No small wonder Earl and I grew apart... But his Giant's finally won the superbowl!
Oddly enough I almost never start an entry with dear diary, or at least haven't in years. Now I start with something like "Hey girlfriend!" or something like that. Well at least I try to. I almost always end with one or more affirmations that come to mind, trying to do the whole changing my internal dialog thing.
So, anyway, thanks for sharing that bit of insight, it makes sense to me!

A diary brings to mind, "Dear Diary..." a record of personal feelings about everyday things in ordinary lives.

Use only as directed. ---- Dave, thanks for the explanation. That explains a great deal of my frustration with dealing with people outside my personal network.
---- Tina, that we are the glue doesn't mean we're loved! Anytime a group gets xenophobic, we are the first to be thrown out . . . "If you're not in 100%, we don't want you at all!"
Whether the various groups we deal with value us as individuals or not isn't what I was talking about . . . we are vitally important because we allow groups of groups to form communities, which provide benefits that otherwise wouldn't be available.

I have found your statement to be so very true. I just came back to work after 3 months of sick leave. I got sick suddenly, so I didn't have a chance to say anything to my co-workers. I am a complete anti-social when I'm sick, so I did not stay in touch with anyone. When I left everything was going well, most everyone was happy and it was a jovial work environment. When I walked back into work, it was a completely different story. The environment was almost hostile. For someone who is intuitive, I had to throw up the mental walls and plow on. I have ignored (so to speak) all the uneasy feelings, the feelings of resentment I get from my co-workers for leaving them and attended business as usual. It is starting to lighten up again after a week, but for someone who is not a social person, and can soak the atmosphere like a sponge it has been hard. I put it all back together because it makes things easier for me, not so much because I enjoy the company of people per se. You speak the truth that we are the glue that holds it together, but I've also seen where that comes home to bite us. ----
We may not fit neatly into other groups, but we provide the glue that binds all groups together. By constantly looking and joining, yet not fully submerging into groups, we retain enough of "other" to provide anchors between groups. We are vitally important.
For fun, here's my favorite horror movies. Consider all of these highly recommended by me.
John Carpenter's The Thing (Carpenter; 1982) The Haunting (Wise; 1963) Black Sunday (Bava; 1960) Dawn of the Dead (Romero; 1978) Evil Dead II (Raimi; 1987) Ringu (Nakata; 1998) Creepshow (Romero; 1982) The Evil Dead (Raimi; 1982) Alien (Scott; 1979) The Exorcist (Friedkin, 1973) (the original cut, I don't like the re-release for various reasons)
