>>Basic psychology says: "If you have a problem, it's YOUR problem", look at yourself FIRST to see what your reaction is all about.>> Turkeys might think Thanksgiving is a problem for them. They should appreciate the present of life and not obsess about the future. They should enjoy the NOW. Thanksgiving or Xmas - it's all the same. The Turkeys might blame somebody with an axe for their 'problem', but they should be grateful for the bloke with the axe because the need for the bloke with the axe is the same need which creates them in the first place. The Turkeys should attend psychological school to look within themselves to solve THEIR problem. Alternatively, quotes like that are simply a load of nonsense and if some dumb thug has his boot on your neck, then all the psychotherapy in the world won't get it off. The thug needs some depleted uranium through the front of his brain. Hawkmoon talks a lot of sense [though he doesn't believe my theory that Jesus Christ was actually a homosexual]. DAK is full of "thinking is bad" nonsense. Which begs the question of why nature would have gone to such immense trouble to provide us with the means to think if it wasn't such a great thing to do. Predicting the future is also an excellent thing to do and is the primary purpose of our great big brains. Living in the here and now is absurd other than that is the actual state in which we are. The future arrives a picosecond later, so we'd better be ready for it and predict what that picosecond will bring. And all the picoseconds coming after that - as far as we are able. Mqurice
