Emotional health depends on making accurate and purposeful distinctions between things of different natures, even when we might not be inclined to want to do so. Distinguishing between things we do, and who and what we are, as well as being ready to do this for others. Many things in life are devoid of value, but this is never true for people themselves. Was Bob Saget funny? Distinguishing things as opinions can help you achieve and maintain inner peace. How to hate while at the same time loving. Acoustic cover: Dear Theodosia.

Two categories to divide problems and solutions into: Tangible/Physical and Intangible/Emotional. (Intangible/Spiritual is another, but not discussed in this episode.) The natures (plural) of DEPRESSION. Predetermined conclusions and AUTISM. Not confusing symptoms as problems. A proper perspective of the value of recognizing one’s own CAPACITIES. Not inappropriately assuming responsibility for things only other people are responsible for, such as their personal opinions, or the ways they feel about, or choose to react to any given thing. Making flat black & white statements about things that are purely subjective and matters of opinion. Acoustic cover: King of the Road.

Which one more powerfully controls our world? Feelings or Intellect? Feelings will completely betray and negate intellect every opportunity they get, and they're doing it more than anybody would care to admit. My experience as a professional interpreter and the sad truth it teaches us about people in ALL professions. Captain Kirk and the Enterprise. The color of your car. Scientists getting Cause & Effect completely backwards.

No matter what scientists, intellectuals, therapists, psychologists, or any otherwise brilliant people claim, your feelings do not in any way function any differently whatsoever from any other person's feelings. It's a myth, it's a lie, it's a reflection of dumbness, an inability, and an unwillingness to THINK. There is no such thing as people with 'less stable' feelings. Also, the big blunder I made recently as a parent. What it means, how I handled it. Acoustic cover: Calliope, by The Well Pennies.

Special Episode: The woman who keeps slapping apples away. Love is not the answer. Yes, this flies in the face of everything society and the world tells you, but it is true. In situations that fundamentally define the ills of the world, more love is NOT the answer. In this episode I explain exactly why, and exactly what the real answer is. The horrors in Uvalde, Texas.

Finding weak spots in otherwise seemingly-strong things - what's the benefit? I'm staying the same age for another year. Trees are wonderful and you should stop cutting them down and plant more. Methuselah was not a girl. The woman who completely trusts her husband, and the reason why. The man who hit another man in the head with a brick, and how I could never do that. Or could I? Could you?
