Sigmund Freud, the father of psychology and psychotherapy, was a Jewish Austrian medical doctor who lived from 1856-1939.

It was absurd for that…

Soldier Prologue Moonlight shines down on a clearing not far from the forest's edge. It's a calm night, with the nocturnal creatures performing their nightly symphony.

He shoves that in the lock too, and fiddles around in the lock for a minute. I watch in fascinated delight as Kevin twists the first black rod and pushes open the door. "You coming?" Kevin grins. I remain standing there, unable to move, my mouth agape. Kevin picked a lock. And it actually worked. I finally regain control of my legs and follow him into the store. It appears that I had underestimated Kevin's competence. "Don't worry. I've scouted out the security here, and it's not much. There are…

of the Lemurian order is to reestablish an age of peace akin to the first golden age in which all creatures can coexist. Humanity is sick and dying.
