Theres several levels of awareness, here. Low level; Jealousy. You want that...you're angry that they have it you can't. Higher; envy; Similar to jealousy; but no anger. higher; identification...recalling when you had that same thing....with a calm confindence that they'll have great feelings that you identify will. Koreans call it Pyong Angh. higher; satisfaction-love...a feeling of "been there, done that..."hoping they'll maintain it" wishing you could do something to help them do so.. Nothing wrong....just life...

Making love. We all enjoy it. We all seek that ideal moment where both of us are getting intense pleasure. But it's kind of like a roller coaster...or deluxe "thrill ride"....if you go on too many,,,then all the "great" experiences meld in to a blurr. I prefer that experiences like the one "MoonTiger" elaborates on does happen...but not too often. Ken Keyes jr. said...about making love; "Let it be a preference rather than an addiction" My interpretation: it happens, and it's perfect - relish the pleasure. If it can't happen....relish the pleasure..."

People aren't going hungry because we can't grow enough food.

Robecology comments on Feb 12, 2019:

Is there a lot of waste? Yes. Does "capitalism (i.e competitive sales) often demand "waste"? No doubt. Have people sued for buying "discounted/out of date" food? Yes. It's a tricky situation out there. The hunger factor has been steadily declining over the years, and the population, while still growing at an absurd rate, has this growth rate slowing - it's predicted to reach ZPG in a few decades. Push family planning. Push composting. Push conservation. Talk to managers who you know discard fresh produce; they'll work with you if you put in the legwork to find suitable donor recipients that promise not to "sue" for old/outdated food ( The American Legion in Ft.

Being told how sexy you are in the first few messages. What do people think about this?

Robecology comments on Feb 12, 2019:

Stating a general rule; The stronger you come on...the sooner the physical connection...but the shallower, the relationship. Being "told how sexy you are in the first few messages" is a great come-on, and enticement; but it's been my experience that if you intentionally avoid "verbalizing" what you're thinking...it shows anyway...and the opposite sex appreciates the subliminal message better. Again; this is IMO...and I know I'll get "I was the exception"...and all I can say is good for you...but you were lucky. There's always exceptions; and if you've been lucky enough to be in the exception group, kudos.

Robecology comments on Feb 12, 2019:

Ken Keyes jr....now deceased....had some great words of wisdom. He wrote several books on relationships. The gist of what he said that's helped me the most? "Hold on tightly - let go lightly" also; go from Love to Hate to Indifference as smoothly and efficiently as possible. Don't talk about him/her. Take their name and number out of your phone/contacts. Send back "memoirs" or give them away. The sooner you forget his name/number/birthday, the sooner you'll move to "indifference" and not care if you "see him/her with someone else". Search "Ken Keyes Jr. books on relationships".

Confession. I "broke up" with the lady. right after xmas..but had to send her a V day card. I copied some of the Lyrics to "Ghost story" ( by Sting) and I'll share them...opinions welcome. Ghost Story Sting I watch the western sky The sun is sinking The geese are flying south It sets me thinking I did not miss you much I did not suffer What did not kill me Just made me tougher I feel the winter come His icy sinews, Now in the firelight The case continues Another night in court The same old trial The same old questions asked The same denial The shadows closing round Like jury members I look for answers in The fire's embers Why was I missing then That whole December? I give my usual line, I don't remember Another winter comes His icy fingers creep Into these bones of mine These memories never sleep And all these differences A cloak I borrowed We kept our distances Why should it follow that I must have loved you? What is the force that binds the stars? I wore this mask to hide my scars What is the power that pulls the tide? Never could find a place to hide What moves the earth around the sun? What could I do but run and run and run? Afraid to love, afraid to fail A mast without a sail The moon's a fingernail And slowly sinking Another day begins And now I'm thinking That this is indifference Was my invention When everything I did Sought your attention You were my compass star You were my measure You were a pirate's map Of buried treasure If this was all correct The last thing I'd expect The prosecution rests It's time that I confessed I must have loved you I must have loved you Songwriters: Gordon Sumner

Obviously there's a climate shift and global warming. Obviously the root cause of the problem is the still growing population (158 more births, than deaths, per minute, 227,000 more per day) and the push to keep fossil fuels. But beware the alarmists.
