In
one of my recent psychotherapy sessions one of my very
astute clients asked me to write an article on guilt.
“You know guilt must be the heart of depression and lack
of confidence, I wish you could write down the formula
that would lead to being guilt free”. Although I don’t
think that guilt is the only variable contributing to a
low mood I do believe that excessive guilt destroys a
person’s spirit, and often leads to a constant fear of
making mistakes and displeasing other people.
The Origin of Guilt
We hopefully develop a sense of guilt as children when
we act in ways that are unkind to others, we are
reprimanded, and we realize that hurting others causes
an uncomfortable feeling within us and within others. We
are in essence becoming socialized so that we can
participate in relationships with respect and empathy.
We know that everyone is born with the capacity for
empathy and as we are exposed to empathic interactions
we can gradually place ourselves in the experience of
other people, thus when those close to us are hurt we
hurt.
We experience pain, we bang our knee or hit our
head when we fall, and we can see in the eyes of a
caring parent that they feel for us and ultimately we
learn to feel for others in the same way. What if
however, our parents hold us responsible for their
actions and we learn to feel overly responsible for
other people. Narcissistic parents are noted for blaming
their children for their distress, and thus their
children become adults who feel overly connected to
other people’s distress. As a result they attach
themselves to people who tend to blame. Blamers attract
guilty people like honey attracts bees.
On March 1, 2014, Baypath will
host its 2nd Annual Fur Ball. Last year’s was so
much fun that we’ve decided to kick our heels up
once again to a live band. Silent auction and
raffles also will be featured as well as a cash bar.
So make sure to plan on attending Fur Ball 2014 from
7:00 pm to midnight at Indian Meadows’ Acacia in

Wovel It!
February 5, 2014 — David
Dockstader gains a mechanical advantage by using the
Snow Wolf, or Wovel as it is also called, to move
the heaviest snow from around his Park Street
property this morning. He said the final action of
moving the snow is to push down, rather than lift up
as with a traditional shovel, avoiding back
problems. And although the contraption looks like it
was discovered lying around the basement of his
antique home, it was purchased new one year ago.

Tuesday evening opened the Town Meeting Warrant as
required by the Hopkinton Town Charter, entertained resignations from 300th Anniversary Committee
members, granted a manager change for Woodville Rod

Mass to be their next Town Manager. According to a

GUIDE
Number One, on Two Counts
February 4, 2014 — Nicholas
Manning, a Marlborough resident, is the first
Assabet Valley Regional Tech student to pass his
Mass State Inspector's License test while still
attending school. According to Hopkinton Sunoco
owner Jerry Lazzaro, the 18 year-old is also the
youngest person ever to have passed the test under
any circumstances.
"I sent him to school to get his license," said Mr.
Lazzaro. "He works here on Co-op; one week on and
one week off."
The two worked like a duet on this 1999 Toyota above
that Nicholas is applying a sticker to. Mr. Larrazo
gets in the driver's seat and turns on the lights
while Nick is behind the vehicle.
"Yup," says Nick . Mr. Lazzaro applies the
brakes. "Yup." Then the left directional. "Yup." The
right. "Yup."
Then off to the front of the vehicle and the
ritual is repeated with the lights, wipers and horn.
Nick checks the tie rods and ball joints while Mr.
Lazzaro works at the driver's area, presumably to
hook up the computer. No more tube in the exhaust
pipe, or heaven forbid, the short -lived contraption
that the Registry once required to bring the vehicle
up to 30 mph on a roller system while standing
still.
Hopkinton Sunoco and Lumber Street Auto are two
automotive service centers who support HopNews and
offer inspection stickers, as well as all of the
things that make a vehicle safe, like tires, brakes
and exhaust.

A Letter From Hopkinton High
School Principal
Dear Hopkinton Community Member,
Are
you interested in helping our high school students learn
about the real world of work?
In an effort to support our students
on the path to become college and career ready we are
exploring community service and internship
opportunities.These opportunities
would allow our students to actively participate in
possible career interests, discover their likes and
dislikes, and gain some experience in the workplace.
Today, colleges are increasingly
interested in students who have completed meaningful
community service projects and/or who may have explored
career options through informational interviewing, job
shadowing and/or internships.
The HHS School Council is looking
for adults in our community who are willing to be
contacted by a high school student to learn about the
type of work they do and in some cases provide an
opportunity for a student to job shadow for a half or
full day. We are also looking for people who would
consider hosting a student for a community service
project or an internship.
Can you help? Please respond to
HHS-School-Council@hopkinton.k12.ma.us with your
interest and to learn more.Please
include your name, job title, email address and phone
number.
Thank you for helping our students
explore opportunities outside of the classroom.

Massachusetts State Police
charged a Rhode Island woman with operating under the
influence, negligent operation of a motor vehicle, and
other offenses after she drove the wrong way up Route 93
from Quincy to Boston early this morning, causing one
crash before finally crashing into a snow plow and
coming to a stop.
The
investigation indicates that BRENDA JARILLO, 33, of
Rumford, R.I., was operating a 2012 Mini northbound on
the southbound side of Route 93 shortly after 3:30 a.m.,
causing a 2000 Honda CRV operated by an East Boston man
to spin out of control and collide with the median
barrier. That driver, Francisco Lopez, 42, was
transported to Quincy Medical Center with non-life
threatening injuries.
Investigation further
indicates that JARILLO continued to drive north on the
southbound side until it struck a Massachusetts
Department of Transportation snow plow, a 2007 Ford F350
truck operated by a 52-year-old DOT employee, and came
to a stop. Troopers took JARILLO, whom they determined
was under the influence of liquor, into custody. She was
charged with the following offenses:
1. OUI Liquor;
2. Negligent Operation;
3. Resisting Arrest;
4. Assault and Battery on
a Police Officer;
5. State Highway Wrong Way
Violation;
6. Assault with a
Dangerous Weapon;
7. Marked Lanes Violation;
and
8. Failure to Stop for
Police.
JARILLO is additionally
charged with leaving the scene of a personal injury
crash in connection to the first crash she caused in
Quincy. She was transported from the South Boston
Barracks to Dorchester Court for arraignment today.
The DOT plow driver was not
injured. According to DOT officials, he was trying to
help stop the wrong way vehicle by sounding his horn and
flashing all his lights at the time of the crash. His
name is not being released by State Police.

Fresh
Air Fund Needs Host Families
Make this Valentine’s Day extra
special for your family and give them the gift of
friendship with a Fresh Air child! Each summer, over
4,000 inner-city children visit suburban, rural and
small town communities across 13 states from Virginia to
Maine and Canada through The Fresh Air Fund’s Volunteer
Host Family Program. This summer, join volunteer host
families in the Hopkinton, MA area who open their hearts
and homes to New York City children.
“We love sharing the wonders of
lightening bugs, playing in the backyard, and swimming
with our Fresh Air friend!” says Liz, a Fresh Air host.
Fresh Air children are boys and
girls, from six to 18 years old, who live in New York
City. Children on first-time visits are six to 12 years
old and stay for one or two weeks. Children who are
reinvited by host families may continue with The Fresh
Air Fund through age 18 and can enjoy extended trips.
Families find hosting so rewarding that more than 65
percent of all Fresh Air children are invited to visit
the same host families year after year. Through the eyes
of Fresh Air children, families often rediscover the
beauty of their own communities.
The Fresh Air Fund, an
independent, not-for-profit agency, has provided free
summer experiences to more than 1.8 million New York
City children from low-income communities since 1877.
For more information on hosting a Fresh Air child this
summer, please contact Theresa Kane at or visit The
