	Sorry, luv.  If you give someone else responsibility for and
control of your actions and reactions (EMOTIONS, is what I'm talking
of) then you are living through them, not through yourself.  If this
is what you want, then it is your choice.  (gee, there's that word
again.)

	Forgive me if I seemed to be speaking of "someone hitting me
over the head with a hammer and I can choose to feel pain or not."
Did anyone else get that impression from my first article?
