I don't know what it's like to go to war, but I know what it's like to stay home from war. I know what it's like to watch your husband on the tarmac---heave over, putting his hands on his knees only lifting his head to sob on my shoulder before he takes off.

Shiloh is the daughter of movie star/humanitarian/"home wrecker" Angelina Jolie and her partner Brad Pitt. And she is almost always dressed as a boy. I'm all for diversity, but we need to make sure that the diversity is genuine and not rooted in a parent's desire to make political statements at the expense of his or her child.

The miracle berries came in a freeze-dried form, so they were like sugar pills. You dissolve the pill and wait for it to coat your tongue.

Before you dip a toe into the water, take a few minutes to do some reconnaissance from the beach. Chat with people coming in from a surf, watch for rocks and rips in the water and how the waves are breaking.

I honestly believe that psychotherapy will never compete with pharmacotherapy. There's no way to invest in the mass distribution of psychotherapy -- and if there's no money, there's no success. I am not trying to be cynical -- this is simply the world we live in.
