Guest guest Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 Hi Elektra: Thank you for your kind welcome. It appears to me, that you have forgiven the difficuties of your past, and no doubt you have grown as a result? I also respect all life. However, I remember seeing a Tibetan monk on a TV documentary, a few years ago (sorry I can't remember his name), he said: " Was it wrong for us to have killed Hitler? - Sometimes we have to kill our brother " . There is loss of life, even in eating a lettuce leaf! I would agree that Love is the best defence.....including love of self..... " Let there be me " may be appropriate at times. imho Love to you, Elektra.
