Stefan,
<< still not yet healthy. One should have a stable Body Temperature all the
Day. But Things are still improving.  >>

Stefan, why do you think that it is healthy to have a stable body temperature?
I have understood that the body has definate circadian (controlled by hormone
balances) rythms with regards to temperature as well as other factors.  For
instance, that the body temperature is lower (sometimes by as much as three or
even four degrees) during the late afternoon and early evening, and then again
in the ~three hours before dawn. Have you heard otherwise?

<< I watched it several times in an Asian Shop and most Mangos in Asian Shops
are underripe so it might be a widespread Behavior. Can anyone confirm this?
>>

Well, I have friends from the Phillipines who have explained to me the
Phillipino style of assessing when a mango is at its peak (by smell and feel)
and also how to eat it insuch a way as much of the flesh and juice as
possible.  According to them mangos are only to be eaten at peak ripeness. But
maybe its not Phillipinos you're talking about.

What I mean when I say that human nature is perfect (before it begins to get

<< Stefan:
I would add COMPLETELY LOVING (if it is not already contained in "good") >>

Liza:
I certainly agree! That's a much better way of saying what I said below (item
2). Thank you!

Every person is born with:
** a vast flexible, intelligence,
** a limitless capacity to love and be loved deeply and closely,
** the hard-wired drive to heal both physically and emotionally from whatever
life's challenges present (software, not hardware - can't grow a new arm or
replace a frontal lobe)
** a playful and passionate enthusiasm for life,
** COMPLETELY good (not "mostly" or "almost" but COMPLETELY good)
**  immensely powerful (meaning courage, decisiveness, and the ability to lead
and inspire others)

I believe that this describes inherent human nature, which every person that
ever has existed, was born with, and that any behavior to the contrary can be
viewed in the same way that physiological ill-health can be viewed - as an
attempt by the body to self-repair (usually misinterpreted and interrupted).

BTW - although I am convinced of the basic goodness of people, and believe
that everyone is constantly trying to "repair" emotional "leaky faucets"
(albeit in weird convoluted ways that only make sense to the person); I do NOT
believe that harmful behavior should be excused or tolerated or allowed to
continue (for instance in the obvious case of murder or violence).

And I personally have had up-front-and-close experience with behaviors that
would make your hair curl, which would cause even the most hard-core pollyanna
(which I am) to wonder whether when people commit their darkest deeds are they
in fact aware that they have at every moment a choice, and that they are
choosing evil over good?  Do they have the ability to reason rationally and to
control their behavior?

For all practical purposes, I don't think that they are able. I think that
their line of "reasoning" and their behavior, is, like I said above, all
screwy, and represents the person's best attempt to heal a specific mental
"injury." But I do think that at the moment of choice, if ANOTHER person were
present, not to collude, but to offer his or her toughest, shrewdest, bravest,
most loving and compassionate help - that most heinous deeds would never be
committed.

<<  it argues scientifically that beings that don't cooperate are dying out.

This makes sense to me, and I will find the book - it sounds interesting.

<< One could claim that nature is in a loving mood. Although Tom would say
that nature simply    i s    . ;-) :-) >>

I agree with him, and you both :>))  I think that nature simply is in a loving
mood. That's a great way to describe nature, come to think of it.

Thank you very much for your comments Stefan.

Lots of Love,
Liza
