    Reality!! The system doesn't work. We need rampant change to teach independence. Government dependency is a kinder form of slavery. We need to focus on self reliance, self respect and a sense of purpose and pride. The current system takes it away.

    yes, I've felt this way before. It DOES help to lie on your back with your feet elevated. I know it sounds too simple, but it does help. Hugs, Catie :)
