Bingo!
I can relate to that Sanat.
The comforting concept which has given my thinking some peace is Cognitive Dissonance.

Had a rather, shall we say, "Raw" interchange with one of my loved ones about, "proof."
As Zorgon once mentioned, "Trigger" photos seem to work best. I agree, that's why I have collected my own (link below.) I just send them the link now.

I enjoy your posts. Surely you are "older" than your previous picture.

This is really a good thread and all of your answers is what this site was created for , good constructive dialog. I learn from you, and we all learn from each other by bouncing our ideas and knowledge off each other. If what Bill Deagle says is to explore the most tragic , then I would say it gives all of us that are awakened to take that many more proactive positions of staying positive, spreading the postive, and emitting that energy as much as possible to other individuals who care. I too have many close friends who ya think I'm off to the edge and then there are the ones who say maybe, beat the drum enough , show people the way by facts and good dialog and yes it does rub off. Planting the seeds by many of you on this board means we are the front line and that certainly needs to start somewhere and I think it is here which makes all of you very special indeed. Collectively we all can make a difference.

I keep reminding myself of when georgia had a state pray day not long ago to pray for it to start raining becuase of the drought, there not out of the woods yet but it's been raining ever since and it's not been on the news since eiither.
