Sharing:
If the source is devalued, it wasn't sharing.
You are not here to give your life away, to sacrifice it....but to share it.
If value is increased for all involved, it was a sharing.
and
You CANNOT share what you don't OWN

Also consider: The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being
overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and
sometimes frightened.
But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.

Truly the only thing that helps me is to refocus on helping others. Then I
remember I am not here for me, I am here to give my life away
in meaningful ways, we can't take anything with us, so much of what we
have, strive to get, and keep is merely distraction and entertainment.
I like my stuff too, don't get me wrong, just have to keep it in perspective.
I think for a lot of us, it is the feeling of powerlessness that eats at
your guts. Finding a way to reclaim your power, not of what you can not control
but of your personal reactions to what happens to you. Don't let it all
sweep you away with fear. I often think with more stress on all of us we just
may have to start talking to each other again, and cooperating and sharing.
Just this morning there are snowblowers up and down the block everyone
doing their own little driveway. Makes more sense for some to share
and take turns, but we are so insulated from each other these days.

I'll stick my hand up for starting this, but the point I was trying to
make was that in todays environment *everyone* could be a basket case,
pumping pills until we are dumbed into oblivion, if we don't acknowledge
and find contentment if the fact that we are mere pawns in someone else's
game. The answer is to recognise we are mere pawns and find ways to live
with it, at least until the masses can turn things around.
Pills only mask the problem and makes an individual functional, but that's
about all. Functionality is not quality. The causes for most mental
issues do not start from within, it's the result of outside influences
and/or circumstances of which they have no, or minimal, control. I
reiterate, they are simply pawns in someone elses game, to be sacrificed
at their whim. If I can be so presumptuous as to cite Alan, he is but one
example of an ever growing number when that comfortable ride starts to get
a tad uncomfortable.
OK, my apologies for kicking this off, just wanted to clarify the
relationship to health, I'll say no more.
