***** MUST READ: FB DIALOG YESTERDAY WITH MY 2 MHS HIGH SCHOOL CLASSMATES. YOU NEED TO SEE THIS.
[[[Note: Max and Mike (names disguised) are from my hometown. We went to HS together, I'm told. What I mean is, I was so near-death alienated, uncomfortable, fish out of water, agonized, total ZERO, that the whole time is a catatonic blur for me. Something like this: ' I used to think that the worst thing was ending up alone. Its not. The worst thing in life is ending up with people that make you feel all alone.' Robin Williams. Our home town HS was a mix of lower middle class to uber rich - criminally wealthy suburb of NYC in NJ - Short Hills, town of Millburn - MHS.
Max, very, very nice I am certain, is something like a life-coach? AND BRAVE ENOUGH TO HAVE FRIENDED ME MONTHS AGO! ONE OF ABOUT 13 CLASS MATES, OF HUNDRENDS, TO HAVE DONE SO, ON FB. (the following will further clarify why so few, and dwindling now, I'm sure.) We've had zero dialog over that time. Yesterday was the first, and I suspect, the last. :-( But I fully understand. I'm very glad we had the dialog. ]]]

Start Loving: :-( . I'm not trying to be mean. Are you saying that to the parents of the 26,000 kids that will die tomorrow because we with resources spend it on things like our weekends, rather than the clean water, food, and education that would save them? Or the 4 billion of our brothers and sisters existing on $4 per day and less, again, because, ENTIRELY because, we with resources spend it on stuff like our weekends? Oh my. What I am saying is mean, cruel and hateful, if the City folks in Hunger Games were just fine, or the nice folks living in Elysium. I'll take zero offense and maybe some relief if you unfriend me. It is NEVER my intent to torture others, only to offer.... Your choice. Your brother, either way.

Mike: Start, I call bullshit. We often (maybe not often enough, but often) GIVE our resources to those countries where folks exist on $4 a day, in hopes of helping those less fortunate and enabling them to live in a more secure economic environment. What happens frequently is their own governments line their pockets with our donated resources, their own people hate one another so much that they're so busy killing one another that they don't care about education, clean water, infrastructure, etc. So do you think it's awful of Bill and Melinda Gates to have an adventurous weekend when they are using their own resources to stop fatal diseases in those faraway places? Is no one able to enjoy an adventurous weekend without guilt? Your life view is very skewed and unbalanced if the answer is YES to my question!

Start Loving: ... everything but what they are to me, Family, Immediate Family. Yes, I do think it is awful for Gates to have taken the resources. We were taught in kindergarten to just take our fair share. Then we are taught that just taking our fair share is bull shit. I went along with that for 45 years or so. That is bull shit.
I find, have always found, guilt to be nothing other than a clever escape mechanism we use to avoid moving from our selfish Head and Flesh, our temples of pleasure, into our Hearts, our Heaven of Joy, of Loving.
Yes, thank God, my view, by the standards of our sickest and most deadly of all cultures, IS UNBALANCED AND SKEWED! THANK GOD! I've left The Matrix. I'm alive now! ROFL!
My Love to you both. Other than this brief vid, if you like, I've said what I have to share. I offer, I don't inflict. Be well.

***** WOW. Sophie Scholl, Nazi Resiter, Executed (DETAIL): “The real damage is done by those millions who want to 'survive.' The honest men who just want to be left in peace. Those who don’t want their little lives disturbed by anything bigger than themselves. Those with no sides and no causes. Those who won’t take measure of their own strength, for fear of antagonizing their own weakness. Those who don’t like to make waves—or enemies.

Collateral Injustice
Manning got 35 years. Those whose crimes he exposed - Bush, Cheney, Rice et al - got book deals, speaking tours, slimy freedom. The Center for Constitutional Rights on this "frontal assault on the First Amendment: "We fear for the future of our country." Here's the original Collateral Murder video as a reminder of Manning's "crime."
"It is a travesty of justice that Manning, who helped bring to light the criminality of U.S. forces in Iraq and Afghanistan, is being punished while the alleged perpetrators of the crimes he exposed are not even investigated. Every aspect of this case sets a dangerous precedent for future prosecutions of whistleblowers – and we fear for the future of our country in the wake of this case."

My next decision point is August 29, whether or not to incur the cost of that 4th, and maybe final infusion. The major decision point will be Sept 12, when I discuss with my oncologist whether to proceed with an expensive, 'curative,' liver section operation. However, my best current guess is that ethically, I can, and must, carry on, now seeing this message [Note: all of you that choose to separate from me now, my Love for you will never diminish.
