Stress is an order imagination. If you did not imagine stress,
it would not exist. In other words, you seem to refer to mental
anguish, frustration and other emotions. In this case, I think
"stress" tends to get defined by the imagination. Take a deep
breath, open your mind and let your breath out real slow. It
tends to clear your mind and the stress no longer exists. And
furthermore, you only know about your own stress and you tend
to apply that knowledge to how you interpret the reactions of
others. If you have never felt stress, never known stress, then
you will have no clue as to what it really is.

So your comment to a young person that perhaps never felt that
stress that you are trying to make him feel, perhaps means very
little to the individual that you wrote to.

The American Indians knew little of land ownership when White Man
invaded their lands and started claiming land as belonging to the
White Man. Many roamed around, setting up tents or other types of
such housing and packed up and moved on when time to do so.

If you really think about it, land ownership does not exist. The
land exists, but it's only a piece of paper that requires man's
imagination to interpret it. Without man's imagination to interpret
such things, it really does not exist. And even if one man then
interprets it, other men may disagree. It is all imaginary. And
STRESS is imaginary, too, right?
