For me, the important thing is to move on, that is, to learn from our
mistakes and to bring ourselves into the present, because we have many
present duties that are neglected if we dwell too long upon who was
right
and who wasn't.

If people neglect to take their fair share of responsibility for past
wrongs, then those wrongs will be repeated over and over again.. *An

Speaking of duties, I must return to mine.
I send best wishes out to all who are responding in this posted

It looks like Ollie and I will spend another Valentine apart.
But I look forward to making up for it when he returns.

All of you take care, now.

Ollie and I have a good deal in common.
The only "hatchet" was that, at first, we both felt that we didn't want
to
continue this non-aging.
Then I changed my mind, but Ollie didn't.
He was just about to go through the ritual when Dr. Yubiwan returned and
talked to him.
I am thankful, because whatever it was that Dr. Yubiwan said to him, he
decided not to begin aging again.
Ollie hasn't spoken of it yet, nor am I pushing it.
Of course, I would very much like to know what he and Dr. Yubiwan spoke
about.

Perhaps Dr. Yubiwan in his most persuasive psych language told him to
get with the program or get thrown out an airlock!

I have not entertained that possibility.
My guess is that Dr. Yubiwan appealed to Ollie's sense of duty, which has
grown much since he was rescued by the seans.
And the oddness we feel for many years when we stop aging (there is no other
word I can think for it but "oddness") was probably explained in detail by
the doctor, so that the feeling would eventually subside.

The profound aspect is that offered a much lengthened life and lack of
aging, many would feel morally obligated to accept it. *Under present
circumstances, I sometimes ponder "what if" I had refused to go to the
hospital last spring when it became obvious I was dying. *A few
religious people think that if God doesn't heal you directly, you have
no obligation to seek help from doctors. *However, most think that it
is wrong to avoid available medical care, that that would be something
akin to suicide. *So if you feel you only have a few days left to
live, but going to a doctor could give you many more years, then most
people would say your obligation is to go to the doctor. *So by
extension, if you feel that you have maybe 40 or 50 years to live, but
going to a doctor could extend your life to thousands of years, then
are you obligated to do that? *That is a question that will arise when
such technology is available.

Ollie will tell me in his own good time.
We are to be married soon; a date has not yet been set.

Thanks.

All they'll have to do is charge a little something for this extension
of life, and suddenly you are not qualified.

Matters little. *Wouldn't someone do ANYTHING to get the money if such

In your case, you'd have to lie even more than you do right now, and/
or you'd have to steal that loot or whatever credits from others. I'm
not sure how much debauchery and skulduggery seans consider as
acceptable for joining their cult/cabal of near immortals, but it
seems they have no problems with methods employed by ZNRs or those
Rothschilds.
