On this and that, but mostly THAT

I am trying to finish reading "Triple Cross" as it is long overdue at the library. Determined to finish it by tonight. I let go of it for a few days and lost myself in "Late Nights on Air" by Elizabeth Hay, a riveting story set in Yellowknife and the canoe trip taken by the main characters will make you feel like you are canoeing with them. Read it, you won't be disappointed. I have written to a German documentary maker for permission to use his mini-documentary in my blog. It is about canoeing in the Yukon, you will love it. I hope he gives his permission. I am being patriotic and trying to read more Canadian authors. Please pick up a Rohinton Mistry and take a glimpse into the lives of Zoroastrian Indians from the singing language of a writer who has perfected the art of bringing a lump to your throat. One of my dearly loved sisters-in-law was a Zoroastrian before converting to Catholicism, and I can relate to and understand the many great tales Mistry can weave like the master he is. I suspect Mistry is a leftie, but never mind, read him. And now on THAT: Long ago I had read SYBIL by Flora somebody and the main character Sybil, suffers from Dissociative disorder. Sybil had a multitude of other personalities but there was a common thread in all her horde of different characters. I have been getting a number of comments to various items posted in my blog, and most of the comments although they all have different names, on closer scrutiny seem to be coming from two or three main sources. It is easy to find the thread that links these comments to one another, once you know what you are looking for. I read up on what causes people with multiple personalities to unravel and what happens when they start unravelling. I had no idea that my blog and the items therein had the power to unravel persons with dissociative disorders. I truly do not want to be responsible for someone jumping off a tall building or a bridge, even though in some cases, the end result would justify the means. I would also not want someone being put in a strait jacket and hauled off to some unknown madhouse never to be seen or heard from again. I believe the exact cause of multiple personality disorder is largely unknown, but it is widely known to afflict people who have experienced child abuse. Multiple personality disorder crops up in such people as an attempt to cope with their everyday dull and totally futile lives. Many a time it has been revealed that children hide the trauma of sexual abuse for decades on end and in their adulthood are easily recognizable by the extreme vileness they display towards people that have not been abused in childhood or never ever, people they perceive to be happy and leading a life that they have never been given a chance to live. Instead of actually laying the blame at the feet of the actual perpetrators of the crime they suffered in childhood, they channel that blame and hatred onto the people that they see to be without a care in the world, in other words, they hate people who are happy. The question they keep asking is: Why are you happy when I am miserable? Should such people be treated with understanding because they lead utterly miserable lives or should I just crush them like I do the insects I find on my roses ? That is the question. In the meantime: Jeeves - where's my smoking jacket? Let's bring out the Cubans. Thank you, Jeeves.
