And We think We have Problems

Hard to read about so much suffering and so hard society.  So much courage to stand up to the accepted mistreatment.  She had to fight all the battles almost alone.  Made me feel blessed to not have lived in those times.

Too often hear criticisms about the state our education in our country but seldom do we see behind the scene to see why the problems exist.

Very interesting that some of the conflicts that still envelope the areas of this book have the same kinds of problems we have today. Hope to read more from this author.

For years I have heard and read many things about thinking and the more I read the more I am convinced that we need to be careful about what we think. We watch the TV, ready the news papers, listen to other people telling us what they think and we really get messed up, it has shown me to be more careful about what I listen to in every direction, our minds can get to be a garbage dump if we aren't careful, it started before we were born and I am finding out it takes time and al ot of effort to clean things up.

this is an interesting portrayal of what psyhchologist's call sex addiction - with the councelling included. I think the real problem is our society and how we deal with our sexualness is not with person's individual needs - sex between us is one of the great adventures - you decide.

These are things we feel awful reading about and can't imagine living through something like this. These things can be hidden even in a less fearful situation than this ... like a spouse being sexually assaulted over and over. That has happened to someone I knew and we never caught on. We just don't think these things can happen so close to home! What and how to do is hard to know and I think reading these stories help us to know how and what we can say or do.

We are using this book in a class we are taking and it has caused me to rethink the way I handle all of my social transactions.

When we understand the size and clumsiness of our institutions, when we evaluate the inadequacies of our appointed and elected officials, when we understand the compromises of our political system and our desire to make everyone happy, blame no one, only then do we realize that we are doomed to failure.

God help us.

Lets be honest, we all know them! Interesting outlooks form the author on how to deal with difficult people. Probably slightly overstated in terms of sociopaths, apples to this we find cause us problems, not specifically useful for the total lunatics in our lives :) The author explains the traits to watch out for, 'failure to follow a life plan, loss of insight etc.

Too many of us live in the prison of indecision, fearing to make choices before we have ALL our questions and issues answered. Sometimes its not about having EXHAUSTIVE (total and complete) information but acting in light of the ADEQUATE.

When push comes to shove and your world crumbles as we need them good people surface. w
When it seems everything is going down the drain the best people appear. Unfortunately the same for the worst of us appear also.

This is an interesting quick read.  It does remind one that we all have our problems that seem very severe to us but not necessarily to others.

Lovely short story with frustrations we can all relate to and a way to solve differences we don't always think of.

This book needed to be written.  People need to realize this could happen. I don't know what the solution is but we need to find one soon.

And every life has needs for help. Truth can hurt and so we hide it, thinking we are doing a good thing for others and ourselves. But we often get it wrong and we need the grace of God and graciousness toward each other. This is that kind of book.

There are some issues that are wedge issues--that exist, seemingly, just to divide.  We argue about them because, well, we can.  Otherwise, there are situations and nation/world problems that might be better not solved, then solved--at least by politicians in their view.  On a personal level, working in D.C., I see this occasionally.  This book does a great job outlining the structure behind these issues.  It's very thought-stimulating, and highly recommended.
