Hello All!
Tonight I want to pay tribute to our beloved wrestler Chris Benoit. He was found this afternoon dead in his home in Georgia along with his wife and son. The police are not currently giving any further details about the case. However we are patiently waiting the story.
This has come as a shock to us all, yet I find it difficult to contemplate what type of person could commit such a crime. Or who would want someone who was so good natured and loved by all, dead.
I am in shock, and though I did not know him personally I have followed his career just as many others since I was a child. It sickens me that such a tragedy has occurred.
I would love to here any feelings on the subject you may have, if you need to vent, if you need to talk, if you need to cry feel free!
Keep the Sanity,
Lisa

Aileen Wuornos': The Impact of a Story Continued!
Salutations All!
Today I wanted to talk more about Aileen Wuornos' her story is one that is truly sad,
I for one believe an "An Eye for an Eye" however toward her execution she was slowly losing her mind and no one aided her.
They issued a stay so execution but it only lasted a week. She was evaluated by a psychiatrist and he granted her fit to stand punishment. Aren't we supposed to help the mentally challenged. She was clearly not fit for judgment the day before it was scheduled.
With compelling evidence, and all! I for one am on the side of capital punishment but when they are sane enough to know why they are being punished. She believed that they were watching her and that they were using satellites to get into her head.
How insane do you have to be to get a stay of execution? She needed to be in mental health facility.I would love to here your views on the topic please comment or send an email to voice it.
Until next time,
Keep your sanity!

Aileen Wuornos': The Impact of a Story!
It was a tragic event for her as well as the victims and there families!
Greetings All!
Often we are so quick to judge one without being in there shoes. We see these horrible crimes but do we ask ourselves how did they come to such a mad state of mind? What were the events that lead up to these uncontrolled rages, these disturbing events?
Was there anyway to stop it? Or who could have prevented it. On Aileen's tragic journey to destruction she may have been saved. She may have been helped. Though we have choices along the way we don't necessarily have the mind to make the right ones.
By studying the mind behind the madness, we can possibly predict what events will lead to, or help prevent future killings. My mother once told me "That it is easier to judge someone...then to help them!"
Aileen's life was less then loving, she was abandoned young, and put out of her home into the cold for doing what most teens are doing today. Back then teenage pregnancy was not tolerated as well as it is today.
Had she had grown up in today's slightly more tolerant society, would her life been different?
Does society have that great of an impact on someones life? If it does maybe we need to change as a society.
To show more understanding for our neighbor, for the hooker on the corner, for the man in the wheel chair collecting change at the local grocery, or the frustrated banker just getting off work. These people though we do not know them have a delicate mine just as we do, how much to break them?
Todays good deed: When you pass someone on the street you do not know, maybe never seen, instead of lowering you head, turning away, or frowning your face....Smile! Your smile maybe the best thing that happened to them today!
Until We Return!
