Sharing, caring, trust, partners. I keep reading through all of this and sort of realized (mini-revelation for me) that although we all want a partner to share, care, trust with and for or are looking for what we consider a 'soul-mate', that it is possible that we can never truly be "the end-all and be-all" for just one person.
I have two very wonderful, close friends, that could be considered my "soul-mates" if analyzed by what they give to me and by what I give to them in terms of sharing, caring and trust and yet one of them is my sister and the other lives a few hundred miles away from me.
Like everyone, I would enjoy having a partner in my life but I don't believe that I can be everything to that potential partner nor would I expect that potential partner to be everything to me.
Many government run facilities, such as Walter Reed or Indian Health Services, are put on a schedule of when the facility will close down, according to the 'life expectancy' of the building. Walter Reed went past its 'life expectancy' and was never meant to be as big as it became.
In time, another hospital will be built, if all requirements are met for it to happen and if a replacement has been authorized by Congress.

Jac, I do see what you are saying and I understand what you mean but sometimes, (in my case only), I get "het-up" and will react. For most debates, I try to be open to discussion and will try to be objective, as I think most of try to do.
I think we can all learn from one another, whether good or bad, new views and all that but sometimes, dependent on how something is worded, it can cause individuals to become defensive and those individuals will respond.
I am so grateful that I taught my daughters to speak their mind and say what they mean. I am no more a mind-reader than I am a Barbie doll and expect that when I am in a relationship that both of us will have open communication with no guessing games as to what the other thinks and feels.
If I don't feel like talking, then at the least, I will be courteous and say I don't feel like talking. If I'm angry, upset, whatever, I will say so. Guessing games and an "aura of mystery" are irritating and juvenile in my opinion.
I would guess we can appear pretty reactionary at times and yes, I was biased. The wording of the sentences appeared to me to incite reactions from others and in my case, it did.
It was nothing to do with race or religion for me, it was a statement that to me, seemed to say that "America is responsible for all wars."
While that is true Ali, it does not in any way mean that it was only America that was involved in any war. You honestly could have left it at "NATO" and wondered about their intentions but to name just one country alone and have it appear that America alone is responsible for all the worlds ill was rude in my opinion Ali.
Painting America with the tar brush, Why is it when negotiations that go on behind closed doors and help is requested from America and America "steps up", America is the "bad guy?"
