We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service.

That life is not so narrow as some people would have you believe... It is simply the way it is.

According to your perceptions. According to another's, that is not the way it is. A person limits his life, and makes it as narrow or broad as that person chooses. If a person chooses the straight, narrow life, then that is simply the way it is for that person.

I love it when people pronounce, "And that is simply the way it is!" I hear it all the time among my students. It is a completely limiting statement. As soon as a person pronounces something to be TRUTH or THE WAY IT IS, that person has closed his mind to other options.
