FACEBOOK THERAPY

A Facebook 'aquaintence' (I'm not really certain how we became friends), who is obviously going through a rough patch, posted very very early this morning "How does one stop the pain if one neither drinks nor drugs?"

An almost immediate flow of love, friendship and conflicting advice came sweeping over the Internet, ranging from meditation to a massage, chocolate to crying, acupuncture to assertions.

Is it because we, as human beings, love to give advice -- could it be a wicked snide joy that someone else besides us is suffering -- or is it something as wonderful as the pure love that flows from God above?

Hopefully the last.

Thank God for us insomniacs who have Internet access.
