		<description>Diamonddille -- I appreciate you leaving me a comment, but I have no idea what you just said, and I have an advanced college degree.  It seemed to be something about me wanting to be a banjo player. 

PetiteDov -- Thanks.  I never heard of it.  I'll check it out.</description>

		<description>Have you seen &lt;i&gt;Marvin Goes to Dinner&lt;/i&gt;? There is a great scene spoofing the same thing. David Cross plays the "inspirational" leader. Quite funny. I'm glad you got up the nerve to leave.</description>

		<description>Wow , that must have been an experience, to find someone actually cared enough for you they tried to get you to not be like the other 95% of people who don't have what it takes to succeed. Look at any profession only the 5% really succeed. Think maybe they want to survive, because they realize, if the other 95% don't take some responsibility and get some real abilities, someone will eventually come in here with real guns forcing you to do what they want? It takes someone who cares, to take the effort to get one to change, when they are down with that part of society that don't want to change as they are not aware enough to see they have to if they want to survive better. If one wants to just label something bad, and go on about there business, of not growing any more and label the groups that realize you can grow, who do you think will lose out in the end? It takes a lot of effort and diciplain to change. Those that do find it worth it in the end. Most are so unaware,they don't think there is any change. For those remember you are a spiritual being and you will be trapped to the level your at  for ever unless you grow, to a spirit, there is no time, but to you, there is, and if you don't want to experience a better life, ok, just remember the wino at his level is totally content, with his bottle of wine, man is content with his materialism, but just like you can see the wino isn't really happy, someone who has grown spiritually  can look at man at his current state, and can't help but want to help. It is along ways to God. If you knew you wouldn't be content staying the same day after day. The things you really want in life will come if you grow. For your income to grow you have to grow. Sorry that is a truth. Say it is a lie, the ones that see it and do something, growing, Those that are not,  label it a cultor your crazy or call it a lie and stay the same, others know better They are just trying in ther own way to get you to see. Your kid doesn't want to go to piano practice either and can call the teacher all the names he can think of, but there is a real truth and that truth will only cause you to grow, as long as your growing, keep on that route, just realize there are lots of ways to be a bango player, be it Roy Clark OR Roy Orbeson, who cares they both become musicians. Some ways are just faster is all. Every one wants you to be able to see what they see, that is natural, If you quit looking because you think you already know, then you won't grow any more. If you become your self and are at the level of God, That is another level of knowing, just check out your abilities, that will let you know if your really growing or not..</description>

		<description>That's absolutely true about the entertainment industry. The more successful friends I have, they more I get inspired, unless they take my projects then I want to beat them up :)</description>

		<description>one time i was at a party and i said, 'I have leprosy.' And really, where I'm from, THAT'S the worst thing you can say. Cause then they think you're out of work. And no one wants to give you a hand.</description>
