ive been doin this a long time Tomi, i'm not aware of many others who do...

Sky, thank you... i guess i should really do a lot of this research myself... you all are angels when it gets brought for me... not lazy, but

and also, most of the catharsis ive done was individually.. it helps to hear what others thoughts are about it... i believe it exists in Catholicism? probably others but defined in different terminologies...

a phenomona?

like when some people bleed the Tears of Mary? or that other one... scars in the hand similar to Christs' Nails?

gee.. now i wanna change this into a thread about spiritual phenomona ....

naw, better stay on course...

also psychological and self-help; homeopathy and holism? ; spirituality... edited in: and Perna's contribution, destruction and re-creation...

and what about the inner conflict which seems to fuel the process?

is there more here?
