I know you did not write it. That's why I included: Freeman, W. (2004) in the post, but you have access to that. I don't, so I cannot look into it, that's why I asked you. Answer me in a pm.

Claudio

It's surprising I can function at all with how badly I interpret you Claudio. Ok, I'll look into it, but maybe Martin or krimson would be better off doing so and synopsising[sic] you as my meaning may be as scrambled to you as yours is to me. I'll have to go retrieve it (Freeman, 2004) again because I didn't save a copy, and if it is printed it is temporarily lost in my piles of printed articles.

Okay, here is one that I actually opened (my copy of) again and found interesting (for what that is worth) as it shows belief systems (BS) in action as well as bringing the term "nonphysical" into play.

You are welcome Martin, and thank you for suggesting a nice weekend, I will do so (chose to have a nice weekend). Let me know specifics, what works for you, etc. once you've looked at these.
Love to you and yours,

It sounds like the character has chosen the path of surrender over the path of the warrior. Good for him, refusing to fight! Given the option, I'd rather lie down and go to sleep, too.

I don't think so Lynda. I am discussing this strategy in a discussion over at the Virtue Science web site, the laying down and rolling over defense. I just don't buy it. It doesn't have any survival value. I suggested if collapsing in a heap is the chosen reaction (as opposed to a chosen "response", but that is another topic), perhaps rolling over in love with a smile to face the thing causing the collapse may follow with some profit. At least at that point you will move past it, or be eaten. It's just data. Wake up sweetie pie, walk through it in love and you can make progress without thinking yourself the warrior that you really are. Warriors make more progress, in my opinion, although it does take all types.
Love
Bette

I believe myself to be a mixture of the three but lately I'm indulging that aspect of me that likes the path of service. Surrender is my second favorite. The warrior in me had her time in my youth, she needs to be still for a while, think about the things she's done...
