Thanks for the kind words
“Meaning is derived through involvement”
This quote resonates with me.
I agree with you on being a happy warrior and alleviate as much suffering as I can, I hope to someday be a beacon of reason. Religion has screwed up my home country. But first I have to take care of myself.

Then I looked at the Kenya, and thought, no, that one’s just as bad. Finally I bought some Ethiopian coffee beans, but I di…[Read more]

@JadeBlackOlive, I don’t blame anyone for wanting to boycot US goods and services. I have a feeling the situation will get uglier before it gets better.

@davis – I’ll buy that! So for christians, biting into some Jesus ice cream should be empowering too! And don’t thy also have chocolate Jesu…[Read more]
