@jimana,  I would like to have just a little more experience. I would like to be around to experience the cure-all for my disorders. I just don't want to live another thousand years to do it.

Anyone can love one or two persons. Most can love several. Some can love hundreds. The world needs more who can love five or six billion at a time.

At this URL folks of any faith, ethnicity, race, nationality, wealth, gender or whatever will be able to download leadership programs for the sessions of a community workshop for literacy, for the study of Jesus, and for community economic development. The workshop is for church or other faith group, schools, economic groups, community, government organization, family, whatever.

Just download material from Dropbox. Remember:
It's free. Also, you can help a lot of people. Just
forward this note to them. Think especially low
income people, perhaps immigrants seeking peace.
Native people or Third World, victims
of abuse populations, migrants, etc.

@oldkarl My Brother, I see you and I are cut from the same cloth. In my opinion far too many folks just go to a doctor and effectively say, "Here I am doc. Fix me." We must study and learn to manage our own health care. Reading some of your material, I see that you are a faithful student, first of the Bible and secondly of the science (art?) of medicine. I appreciate our medical community but they cannot possibly know it all and they must admit that "we are fearfully and wonderfully made" and one size does not fit all. Thanks for your input.

I went through all the demons.    Depression why me anxiety anger and finally realized that only I could decide on my emotions and I began to educate question and feed my own strengths through these and faith and citing an uptdated list of only 5 New positives at the start of each day and I am a survivor for eight years now with the usual afib setbacks and to quote an old song. I am going to LIVE til I dieRegards to all

Thanks, @jimana. Yes, I am troubled by this stuff. The “Here I am doc. Fix me.” quote runs up the cost for all of us, for starters. Another cost is what it does to the egos of the medicos we deal with. I am telling my docs now that I am no longer responding to office visits for protocol purposes. If they have a medical reason for me to come in, or if I have a problem for them to deal with, I will call for an appointment. But no more "this specialist just changed your whatever, so the protocol now calls for you to see your primary."
