Only now is the true scale of the disaster emerging. Reports now suggest as… Continue

The idea that we need something that we don’t have right now is the root of discontent. We are never completely satisfied with this moment. Even when we get everything we thought we always wanted, it feels like there is something missing. Why? Because we have become so accustomed to waiting for something more, that nothing is ever enough. The habit of feeling dissatisfied has become commonplace in our lives. This is true for the rich and the poor, for the loners and the social butterflies among… Continue

This came through a wise and wonderful Friend, I like it! I think it tells the story of human kind. Surely it sifts out the important from the mundane, the useful from the "not so much"...However it is not for those who consider themselves "normal", "sane" or "regular" No this is only for the Forthright, The Unique, Kind, Intelligent and "Crazy"… Continue

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti – Haitians are piling bodies along the devastated streets of their capital after a powerful earthquake flattened the president's palace and the main prison, the cathedral, hospitals, schools and thousands of homes. Untold numbers are still trapped.



President Rene Preval says he believes thousands of people are dead even as other officials give much higher estimates — though they were based on the extent of the… Continue

It is a question that only needs answering to ones self of course. However several have asked that this be posted where the "many" may read it. Some have read it before and enjoyed it again. I think it is a story worth the read and reflection at least once a day for us all, but then, that would be me!





A group of frogs were traveling through the woods and two of them fell into a deep pit. All the other frogs gathered around the pit. When they saw how deep the pit was, they told… Continue

Dear Troy,



Thank you for your kind reply. Not only kind but with wisdom that I can discern and absorb as well. Faith is the best friend I have held since the age of eight years, faith is what carries me when I feel I can no long walk and faith is the essence of every breath that I draw that keeps me here.

I understand faith of all kinds, especially blind faith and it was and is in this faith that "I" have lived this life. I live by the faith that all people all life is of but… Continue

While millions of Americans were finishing up their holiday celebrations, the Bureau of Land Management was flying helicopters over rangeland in Nevada, trapping hundreds of wild horses and condemning many of them to live the rest of their lives in a confined "holding pen."



Express your outrage today – don't allow our iconic wild horses to be rounded up and confined in tiny pens. Support the Restoring Our American Mustangs (ROAM) Act today! »



The act of rounding up wild… Continue

You think these things are difficult to see, to watch, to face,

How does it feel to be the helpless child who LIVES it every day,

Who lives in fear, Hope and trust for some CARING someone, ANYONE to stand up and hear, see and take action against what is happening to them...… Continue

A Dog's Purpose? (from a 6-year-old).



Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog's owners, Ron, his wife Lisa, and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle.



I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family we couldn't do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home.



As we made… Continue

So much truth and wisdom from so many gone before us.

Hello, So I see that "someone" is now starting accounts all over the internet using my name, different address, but my name, One I found is using a picture of Betty Boop, like sammy used to use and guess what that one is? A sex sight! Nice since I have been on my own for eight years now! No it's not sammy doing it. However it looks like it may be someone from This site. Because now I find that someone is using one of my Native American Avatars from TBD on MySpace and calling themselves "Tina"… Continue

In the weakness of being human, Today is in reality, just another day...However on this day I am feeling my humanity perhaps a little more than I would like to. I came to TBD when it was at the other sight, in all of my ignorance I treated people as I have long fought to be treated, with love, kindness, compassion and care. I also found my way to sharing some of my life and alot of my own struggles with grave health issues and such. When I was taken ill in an even greater way and put on home… Continue
