We, as people, are who we are. Unique individuals. If life is difficult, it is because the rest of the world is making it difficult for us, through discrimination, physical barriers, attitudes, and lack of opportunity. Therefore, the world must change. And we must make it change. Anger must be channeled into bringing about effective change. That will solve your problem. Take control of your life. Empower yourself and help your friends empower themselves. Tony -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!109!304!Tony.Young Internet: Tony.Young@f304.n109.z1.fidonet.org

Hello Liz. I have been carrying this echo on my BBS for quite some time but
have never participated in it. Your message prompted me to put in a reply.
I am a registered nurse and if you have any questions of a medical nature,
including drugs, please ask and I will do my best to provide you with the
answers. The moderator of the echo can correct me if I'm wrong, but I would
not think that would be off topic.

You do have a good sense of humor. Hang on to it and it will carry you
through. Remember, you are a special person. Feel sorry for those who are
unkind because they are the ones with a problem.
Love,
Pat
