[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 740760, member: 18958"] I was listening on the radio today a program of Ram Dass, the spiritual teacher/psychologist, where he spoke about aging. First he went into the challenges of physical aging, and then emotional--despair, depression, isolation, exclusion, loss, abandonment--and a string more of horrible words--all associated with the psychological aspects of aging. And Beta, your description of the experience of the parent of a mentally ill child, touches all of the boxes. It is no accident, then, that so many of us turn to spirituality for solace. Because there is really no earthly thought or thing or action that takes away the pain. But there is faith. And there it is. [/QUOTE]
