its hard to be positive when everything SUCKS so bad you maybe want to just run away and forget it all. When your job sucks, your financial situation sucks, your marraige sucks, half the people you know are out of work, the other half are on tension just waiting for the ax to drop, people not caring about anyone except themselves...on and on....

sittting by the water helps a lot, but now its frozen over.

Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together.
All things connect......Chief Seattle, 1854
