Self-Help
The Slave Indians of
northern Canada are
impressive: They have
13 categories for types of
ice. This, of course, is
because the consequences
would be so dire if they
didn't know their ice
wetness, drowning, death
depends on black ice or
blue cracked ice or
brittle. Here in the U.S.
we're more concerned
with states of mind
rapid mood swings and
levels of paranoia
We have to be with
everyone encroaching on
us every five
minutes. We read
manuals telling us how
to survive the loss of
a spouse or lover how
to overcome addictions
to alcohol, pills, cocaine
sex how to manage
our lives and how
to sell.
No wonder we're
crazy.
