for those of you whe are interested, there's an interesting essay in

this month's Harper's... " Pathologies of Hope " by Barbara Ehrenreich

this is how she starts:

" I hate hope. It was hammered into me constantly a few years ago when

I was being treated for breast cancer: think positively! Don't lose

hope! Wear your pink ribbon with pride!... "

anway, *I* certainly appreciated reading her point of view...it's how

I often feel...not that I have any " hopelessness " ...

for me, it just all feels so artificial and superficial--and

somehow...unreal...

anyway, thought I'd point out the article to you all...
