Guest guest Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Violet, I think you are right. I think that i am getting caught up in such things and that really asking questions of this sort is really not condusive to any progress in anyway, but on the contrary, just getting me wrapped up in things that ultimately i am tring to escape. I also think that you are right and i should go out and ge my spiritual awakening, get balanced and healed,and then revisit any question ofthis kind. hank you for our time and response of course and i am going to do just that.
