The purpose of life is to listen ...
to yourself,
to your neighbor,
to your world and to God and,
when the time comes,
to respond in as helpful a way as you can find ...

from within and without.

Next month, Salim Ahmed Hamdan, a Yemeni who was once a driver for Osama bin Laden (search this name in this site!), could become the first detainee to be tried for war crimes in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. By now, he should be busily working on his defense.

But his lawyers say he cannot. They say Hamdan, already the subject of a U.S. Supreme Court ruling, has essentially been driven insane by solitary confinement in a tiny cell where he spends at least 22 hours a day, goes to the bathroom and eats all his meals. His defense team says he is suicidal, hears voices, has flashbacks, talks to himself and says the restrictions of Guantánamo "boil his mind."

Good morning fellow adventurer!

All you have to do... is BE. Be yourself.
No one else WILL EVER compare to who you already are.
You don't even have to be your best, because for you, there's only your best.
There's nothing to prove, and no one to please who isn't already OVER THE MOON WITH JOY at how well you've done, and with whom you've become.

Tallyho,
