    I agree we all have motives for the actions we take whether for good or evil. even while it may appear that mother theresa actions are entirely magnanimous they are in reality self-serving in order to feed the ego :(

    i was reading mark twain's "What is Man", very strong argument about a man's actions being predetermined. (no personal responsibility for what we do. disclaimer I may be bastardizing his argument)

    But personally I believe in the results more than the motivation. I haven't studied mother theresa biography but I admire any human that tries to help others even if their motivation is selfish. If feeding their egos ends up helping another person achieve their dream (food gift, educational help, yada yada) I don't really care why they're doing (as long as it doesn't influence their behavior).

    back on point; god therapist are so boring last session I gave her the 411 on the acid and shrooms and the common misconceptions surrounding hallucinogens.
    ("I was tripping during...."
    "What do you mean tripping " (she's from egypt)
    "Oh I used acid two hours before (said event)"
    "Do you still taking acid"
    "Acid not really something you're on"
    "I don't understand"
    "It's no like smoking or drinking, the people I know and personally don't take acid every weekend. It's something you use at an event or occasionally when we go hiking, or spend the day walking around town, it's a special occasional. And after a while when you get the message you hang up the phone....[1 hour later session over]
