Kyiv National Art Museum of Ukraine, is now on display at the Winnipeg Art Gallery and will travel to Hamilton and Alberta in the next few months. Unfortunately, for the moment, there are no plans to have this exhibit in the United States. People w'ho participate at the AAASS con ventions are scholars who have a passion for the Slavic Studies and the Humanities. They excel in their discipline or their independent research and wish to share their findings and their ideas with other scholars. By sharing their ideas they generate a spark in the mind, and sometimes the heart and soul, of those who come to listen to them. In brief, the convention is a forum for ideas. It is a stage where people meet peo ple, and to paraphrase the French writer Montaigne, “rub their mind against the minds of others.” Sometimes scholars coin new words to convey their new ideas. These words appear in the titles of the sessions or the titles of individual papers. This year, two strange words made their way into the academic language of the program: outmigration, and metanar rative. It will be interesting to see next year which of these two terms will survive in new presentations. John Carroll University. Copyright Helene N. Turkewicz-Sanko, December 2001. O u r E m o tio n s : S ta y in g In C h a rg e by Ihor Magun, M.D. The recent horrific events have brought out intense feelings and particular issues for all of us. Everyone has had a variety of emotional reactions, either for personal reasons or just as manifestations of human nature. Most of us were in a state of shock or disbelief. While we can never feel completely prepared for anything, including death, some events leave us feeling vulnerable and our response to them is immediate and varied. We may feel helplessness, and this may manifest itself in displays of anger, agitation, or depression. At times, w'e may even feel dis connected from our feelings or the feelings of other people. In certain situations, these are normal reactions and we need to accept them as human. Anger and agitation are also brought out by eveiyday situations. It is a common human emotion to be distressed and to respond angrily. These feelings, however, tend to be transient in nature. It is only if repeated episodes of anger become a way of life, that something is not in order. Then, professional coun seling is advisable. Whether emotional turmoil results from extraordinary events or common everyday upsets, all of us should focus on controlling these emotions rather than letting them control us. We can do this by taking time out for ourselves and taking ourselves emotionally away from the cause of the turmoil. Some of us may do this by focusing on our families; others may find it helpful to read a book, go to a movie, get involved in a hobby, or take a long, aromatic bath. It is best to choose an activity that really makes you feel good. Starting an exercise program is highly recom mended - you will feel better about yourself and begin to look better. The take home message here is that it is not always possible to address every issue and every problem calmly and positively. But the first step to a better emotional state is to actively take charge of your emotions. Correction. We report a change in the Resolutions of the 25th Convention of the Ukrainian National Women’s League of America, published on page 18 of the October 1999 issue of Our Life. The resolutions of the Social Welfare Committee are to read as follows: 1. To go forward with “Soyuzianka Home” plans, as specified by the generous benefactors who donated the parcel of land for that purpose and 2. To continue with the programs, and fulfill the wishes of generous contributors in providing aid to orphans, Chornobyl victims, grandmothers, and others in need of assistance in the United States and Ukraine.
