>>The need for human communication and "love" is a result of fear, loneliness, and the inability to enjoy the natural world and yourself as company for long periods of time.<< Ever consider the "other angle"? The "lack of love" (not being able to receive or give) is the cause of the world's fear and loneliness? Same reason for not being able to enjoy the natural world and oneself in solitude. I didn't create these concepts, they've been around for thousands of years. I do believe that man is born into a difficult situation, but he is given many opportunities to step out of some of the mud. To do so, he has to be "open to the help." Sometimes, that means being open to the help of others, which can be very humbling. Yet life is one constant string of humbling events, so adding a few healthy ones to the pile doesn't have to make life more burdensome. >>This probably accounts for the success of Hollywood and all that trash. They need "entertainment".<< I don't get negative on life because of my fellow man's problems. Hollywood shows that lots of man's priorities are in the wrong places. Also, I've also seen a lot of Hollwood celebrities go through the mud and humbling experiences and turn out for the better. Of course the press and media don't like to dwell on that too much. I can't imagine the "parade" magazine in Sundays paper being to financially successful on its own.:-)
