You can hope what you like.  In the story, her daughter was
dead.  She had no other children.

Maybe you would care to define whore as you understand the
label?  Enlighten me.

[Krimel]
In the story Lila is mentally ill.

I would define a whore as a woman who uses sex without love or passion to
attain material benefit. Say a boat ride down a river or a trip to the
tropics to score drugs.

[Marsha]
p.s. Are you a very old goat?

[Krimel]
No, in fact I am very young compared to a Sequoia.


Yule Greetings Krimel.

In fact, neither of us are author of this story. And while this would be, for me, an interesting discussion, I don't think I want to shadow box publicly with a less-than-brave(honest) avatar. I do, though, suspect you've been programmed with a narrow and distorted understanding of 'uses', 'mentally ill' AND 'Love'. Perhaps we might have this conversation in some other lifetime.

In Chapter 14, Lila talks about naming and defining, and it is to me the most significant words written in the book. It was within these few paragraphs I recognized Lila as representing Ma and Buddha (though I didn't know anything about the Buddha at the time.) Her wisdom showed through her pain, at least that's how I experience it.

I love you very much Krimel.


Marsha
