Robin Ann,

I understand and sympathize with you. This is a sad thing to say, but

I'm going to say it nevertheless, even at risk of being thought of as

a wet blanket. I think it's very difficult, if not impossible, to be

entirely healthy on a planet that seems to be falling apart like

ours. In other words, I find it a bit too limiting and even blind to

think along these lines: " What matters is my personal health, I don't

care about what's happening to the rest of the world " . Unless you're

living inside a bubble or a cocoon. But what joy is to be found when

you're living in a cocoon?

Best to you,

JC
