Healing in the Years of Pestilence /Curación en los años de la pestilencia
Healing in the Years of Pestilence By ROBERTO Dr. CINTLI RODRIGUEZ I have a friend who I hesitate to name because I find it difficult to explain her existence; one day she did not exist and next thing you know, we’re virtually running partners.

The thing is, as a life-long writer, I’ve written about every topic, except the healers in my midst. My mother was a healer who prayed to the four directions. Once, when a priest collapsed in a packed church, my mother made her way to the f... more »

If the '90s doesn't see like ancient history, you may remember David Brock as one of the most vile of the right-wing villains. He was paid by the far right to write books and articles smearing Democrats and progressives. He was particularly virulent in his screeds against President Clinton. And became a far right hero for a racist and misogynistic characterization Anita Hill as "a bit nutty and a bit slutty."

"Do as little harm to others as you can; make any sacrifice for your true friends; be responsible for yourself and ask nothing of others; and grab all the fun you can. Don't give much thought to yesterday, don't worry about tomorrow, live in the moment, and trust that your existence has meaning even when the world seems to be all blind chance and chaos. When life lands a hammer blow in your face, do your best to respond to the hammer as if it had been a cream pie." - Dean Koontz
