When you did your research, where did you find out about the NA link? Have you tried Ancestry.com?

Maybe you could start with Virginias Historical society to see what tribes existed in that area during 1732.

<t>"Animals have these advantages over man: they never hear the clock strike, they die without any idea of death, they have no theologians to instruct them, their last moments are not disturbed by unwelcome and unpleasant ceremonies, their funerals cost them nothing,...

<t>Im choking on a chicken bone right now but we will talk more ok ? :wah: OK! I am 1,000th NA - I say that because I do a lot of genealogy and found one of my first ancesters in this country married a NA woman named Sundown in Virginia in 1732. The culture was bread out ...

<r>If you want I can show you a little income they recieve from oh say.........Casinos and oil rights. Actually, Im very aware how much money they make. But I'd bet you DON'T have a clue. I also know how much they donate! Do you? I also know how much they contribute to cities for r...

<t>Native Americans have the highest rate of depression of all the races in the U.S. (36% is what the statistics are showing). No wonder there are so many natives consuming alcoholic beverages. They are not drinking because they are happy. And I could give 30000 reason why they have NOT t...

Thank you Nomad! I appreciate that

<r>Considering my step-mother is Sioux I take your post personally and it was offending to say the least. Like many native races, Indians have a love of alcohol and the lack of genetics to cope with the alcohol sugars. First of all, natives don't have a LOVE of alcohol. M...

<t>Just wondering if we have Buddhists in the Garden and how you came to the religion if not raised in it. I'm not a Buddhist but I've studied buddhism. My father has been a Buddhist since the late 70's so I've learned so much from him. Buddhism is a beautiful religion and its prece...

<t>I'm not adopted and I've never adopted (though I would love to) but I just wanted to say that I think all of the stories here are so beautiful! I know of people who have adopted outside of the country but not inside the U.S. Good luck to those considering adoption! Babies and children...

<r>I am not suffering with depersonalization at this point. I had an experience with it a while back. It lasted maybe 6 months (severe) and then about another 6 months (mild). But now I'm fine <E>:)</E> In the conditions research has the spiritual aspect of depersonalization been studied ...

scratch my post... I just read the first post on this and now I see the boy was found!

I think there is such thing as an ideal job. Maybe not for everyone some people. I know a few people who have found their nitch in the professional field and have stuck with it and can't see any other field of interest. They are perfectly happy as well. But sometimes I think it is rare.

I have several things: grandmothers bible, several wedding rings from family past on, grandmothers journal, things from childhood like a scrapbook and pictures.

rainbowsmiles

<r>That is exactly what it is like. As if somehow our minds (those who suffer from depersonalization) have somehow transcended or something. I liken it to the way some Buddhist describe enlightenment. It is very similar. Several people I've read about have a religious or God undertone to their deper...

<t>I suppose it is possible. I had bouts of "zoning" but I would hear if people were speaking to me and I would respond. What other things does he do. With Depersonalization there is so much involved. It feels like your unreal and standing outside of yourself. If that makes any sense. Somethings mak...

That is why I love going to the Renaissance festival. They have all types of mystical stuff including fairy wings, fairy magic powder, etc... and watching the kids running around behaving like fairies in their little costumes are so cute! Fairies are the best!

Oh, thank you so much! You are such a great help - I appreciate it!

<t>Does anyone bead on a loom? I love it and I think it is so addicting. My problem is there are not enough books out there on the subject or any classes. I know how to make bracelets but I want to learn larger things like purses or transfering some loomed work. Does anyone know of any instruction o...

<t>Has anyone successfully cast a spell? Did it work the way you intended? Were there any negative side effects? I love talking about spells, learning about spells, studying spells (I've done it since I was 8) but I have never cast any spells. I believe spells ...

rainbowsmiles

<t>I don't know if I believe or disbelieve but my father use to take me into the gardens and tell me stories about fairies so I believed whole-heartedly as a child. I even thought I saw a few. It wasn't until later that I began to doubt. I love the idea and I think it is special and will do the same...

<t>Do you like people touching you? Why or why not? I don't mind people touching me if the touch isn't innappropriate. I love hugs, especially from friends! It lets me know people care! I'm studying Reiki now because I've learned the power of touch is real and healing s...

I'm a runner. I use the track outside in the summer and the treadmill in the winter or on very hot days. I absolutely love the treadmill and its the best tool for losing weight.

Are you all better now or does it still creep up on you?

Thanks Peg, I appreciate the link! I will check it out!

<r>Mine was much more severe. There was no getting back to reality for me until they found the right medication. I found a group of people who suffer from it and all are looking for a way out! But most of them suffer from it after using LSD or marajuana... that wasn't the case for me! I wonder why i...

It is difficult to develop friends over the net because trust is a serious issue. Too many people use the net to live out their fantasy lives... I've learned that the hard way!

Has anyone out there ever suffered an attack of depersonalization? It is rare and usually follows a major panic attack. I'm just curious cause it has happened to me and it would be nice to find someone to discuss it with!

<r>Tell me more. What does he weigh? How old is he? How long have you had him? Have you picked out a puppy kindergarten yet? How is potty training going, are you using a crate?

I have a friend that lives in France and she saw it and she absolutely loved it. She said it was very funny! I'm going to see it Saturday! I love Johnny Depp and I liked the original Wonka movie so I'm looking forward to Burtons version as well!

<t>Do you make friends easy.. outside the cyber world? What are some of the things you look for? Or are you just friends with everyone? Unfortunately, I make friends easily... I don't like to socialize too much but people must think I do. People talk me easily, which is nice but I don't w...

Yeah, we named him Techichi! Everyone thinks it is odd but we do have a point to it! The Aztecs use to call the chihuahuas (or what we believe were chihuahuas today) Techichis. So we named him that cause they are suppose to originate in Mexico! We call him techi for short!
