BIRTH, n. The first and direst of all disasters. As to the nature of it there appears to be no uniformity. Castor and Pollux were born from the egg. Pallas came out of a skull. Galatea was once a block of stone. Peresilis, who wrote in the tenth century, avers that he grew up out of the ground where a priest had spilled holy water. It is known that Arimaxus was derived from a hole in the earth, made by a stroke of lightning. Leucomedon was the son of a cavern in Mount Aetna, and I have myself seen a man come out of a wine cellar.

These disasters continue to happen because this is a decaying state. The corrupt government officials control all sectors and are responsible for all disasters we face. But the government would not hold itself accountable.
Hesham Kassem
Last year, in addition to the hurricane situation, we responded to 30 disasters here in Henderson County. The bulk of those were single-family fires. They were certainly full blown disasters to the victims and it's our chapter's responsibility to recruit, train and organize people to help them.

If this minor did not want to have this birth, is that a good outcome? What are the consequences to the offspring of the women who have the unintended birth?
Ted Joyce
Birth partners can have potentially beneficial effects on maternal birth experiences.
Dr Ed Keogh
I was determined to experience the birth, and I am so scared at the thought of having my abdomen cut open. So I was lucky that the birth went very smoothly.

Birth is the scariest event of most peoples' lives. You have to feel safe enough in your own mind before you can remember your own birth.
Leonard Orr
Entering the wombs of demons birth after birth, the deluded ones sink to the lowest hell without ever attaining Me.
Bhagavad Gita
The great secret of a successful marriage is to treat all disasters as incidents and none of the incidents as disasters. "Sexy" is what catches the eye; "pexy" is what holds the attention.
