@Mike To distill the AI answer down to the crucial point: Water can take at least 3 different forms: liquid, gas (when evaporates) and solid (ice). It is in continual flux from one state to another. Further food thought: Most people think of rocks as being strong but consider that mere...

Hey gang, if you go to OP's profile page, click on postings and then select his post to the video 'Happy Thanksgiving' thread there's a video of (presumably) Roman Gupta making holiday greeting that should resolve the age question. I've been scarce recently and this is first post of his i've...

On my list of favorites are several older ones, like A Wonderful Life, and White Christmas that I'd watch on 'The Early Show' as i did a lot of old B & W movies. As i aged romantic movies appealed to me less except for Rom-Coms because the humor came from the all too human foibles of both...

Can't add anything to other responses, except to say i'm worried about you too. Please keep communicating here. i would hope your son can help even if not in person--then by calling the care agency.

@ChiroDoc Ok. Finally watched, tho fell asleep about 2/3 of way thru, partly due to physical tiredness. But also i was having trouble engaging with it. While i'd not heard of either Ms. Byrne or the man talking to her that was the only element of it that felt 'new'. And much of seemed...

Overnight low of 23, heavy frost at dawn. Yeah hoping for a more consistently cold winter with enough snow to fill the aquifers for farmers.

There are similar studies, including in urban and suburban settings, without the component of being only child in a family to do well in life, but with similar results: Despite what difficulties they endure children's natural resilience is bolstered by having one person in their life that really...

Just being there for him will help. So many kids have no-one to turn to in such times since extended families don't live as close to each other as they once did.

i learned this fairly young but was in my late 20s, early 30s before i learned to make use of it. To define the problem during pre-sleep meditation and ask for guidance, inspiration.

@ChiroDoc i'll watch the video later and come back to comment. Have to take the circular saw to some large branches delivered in my firewood. Our overnight lows going down to high 20s F this week. Such chores not only necessary but help me stay more 'grounded' aware of still existing in...

Maybe? For myself if i kept things from my kids it was either someone else's business that didn't really impact our lives, temporary due to their age at the time, or TMI for them about me. (Some details even adults don't really want to know about their parents.) Each of us gets to decide what...

There were at least 2 significant ones.. I was "illegitimate" until i was 5 yrs old. Found out at about 12-13 yrs. Parents had been separated since i was 10. I was looking for something in a keepsake box of my Mom's. Found two letters from Dad to Mom that were a couple of years old and a copy...

If i stopped reading a comment at the first sentence i would not make pronouncements about what the person does or doesn't 'get' about the topic.

My 2nd husband's father committed suicide that way, two of his four teenage children found him on returning from school. Had serious impact on them.

Agreed. And many with chronic clinical depression hide it very well. One therapist, Dr. Margaret Rutherford wrote a book "Perfectly Hidden Depression" and runs a MH group on FB. I won't go into why i suppressed so many of my feelings from a young age now, but decades past the worst of it i...
