Ric – You’ve hit a philosophical nerve with that bit of prose. Is the embrace of loneliness a result of an inate fear or of training? Baby chimps are not afraid of snakes until they see another react with fear; ie – training to fear the snake. Are we similarly trained to fear being alone? For myself, I’ve felt fear, loathing, self-pity and extasy from being alone, each depending on how I felt about myself and my ability to handle the circumstances at the time. As Christmas aproaches this year, I feel compelled to discuss being alone as a way to handle my own thoughts; my wife and step-son will be 150 miles away and I’ll be on call for work. A part of me revels in the idea of getting some work done on major projects around the house, while a part skims just above a "blue funk" by not having my best friends around (don’t you just "love" the idea of loving and despising the same person). I’ll probably be on line throughout Christmas, so if anybody needs an electronic hug, just speak up!

I shall not fear no man but God, Though I walk through the Valley of Death I shed so many tears so unfair. Back in Elementary, I thrived on misery Left me alone, I grew up amongst a dying breed. Fuck the world, because I’m cursed, I’m having visions of leavin her in a hearse — God can you feel me? … a mob full of demons… no memories… pictures of my enemies killin’ me.

Is depression a bad thing?  Well, who am I kidding ?  Won’t someone put an end to this everlasting torture?  I want someone to love me the way human beings are supposed to love each other, but it just doesn’t seem to be the case with me. I can’t seem to make it. You see, everytime I get involved with somebody, which doesn’t happen too often, but often… I close myself up and wanna run away. Do you know a Jam track called The Place I Love?  It best expresses what I am desperately trying to convey here:  "The Place  I love is a million miles away/ It’s too far for the eye to see/But still it’s me at least/And you can’t come there/ No one is allowed at all".  I’m off to look for cheap thrills.                                                       Cheers

I know the case, Film.  Yes, you found love but you won’t have peace with your life.   Your post startled a memory or two out of their lair. I wish I could stay calm reading that one… Dunno what to say to you except I know exactly what you mean.                                     Hold on
