    Working through Recovery aka the 12 Steps with as an Epicurean has been a 5 year challenge.


    I am so happy with the Epicurean and not Neo-Epicurean poster. It is the very essence of how I have survived.


    Thank you

    Just a quick note...EP is very kid friendly. We discussed death and dying last night at dinner. My 7 year old out of the blue says "people are worried more about being dead and what things are like after they die that they dont enjoy living!" "Just enjoy things dont be worried about dying because you won't feel nothing. Right Daddy?" Exactly son.

    Elayne,

    Anyway, I look forward to your writings.

    Elli I bow to your wisdom. I am useless anyway. I know very little. Happy 20th anyway.

    Platonizing is the very root of all wars. Some buffoon takes over a nation with a vision of an ideal world. Plato and his minions have created a world of division. Platonism is a mental disease.

    And isnt it funny how they are calling it a cult, when in fact, most people are cultish in their devotion to sports teams and the like!

    The 20th is a new favorite day here at our house. We do fun things. Eat a good meal. It's cool too since my 7 year old's birthday is January 20th. On April 20th, we are going to check out some dinosaur fossils and investigate the science of the Big Bang at our science museum.
