I get tired, and I know I'm not supposed to, but it's not a physical status I can escape.
I pretty much don't really like to be around people...certain people hurt to be around...and truthfully it's such a stretch for me to keep up with people's moods and needs....it is just draining.....
Church service Sunday...Pastor's sermon was about repenting, and not living a worldly lifestyle while pretending to live a spiritual one. He said the biggest problem Christians deal with is Pride. I know some really proudful people, who never apologize, never admit they are wrong, and brag about all the great things they do....what I wonder is...if I'm able to see that in them...what does that mean about me? Am I being proudful by
I was trying to think of what I could say about relationships in relation to God, the Bible, and Christianity. And although, I could regurgitate a bunch of what I think I've learned, I know that wouldn't help me if I really really needed help. And believe me...I need help even knowing what I know. Because after all, knowing and doing are two completely different things.
Growing up, I was taught that God was a man, and not ever being taught to crack open a Bible, I automatically equated God/Jesus/Holy Spirit to men of this world. Although I knew that God was 'better' so to speak...I still imagined him or personified him by what I knew of men. My Dad, Catholic Priests, Grandpo, Uncles, Brother, then later Boyfriends(not a sane comparison). It was a mish mash of identity confusion. I just wonder how many other women out there struggle with this.
Because I had difficulty with male relationships, I think I built a barrier to God. Thinking that he would reject me, punish me or abuse me like the worldly men. But
It is possible men. I know you have to work really really hard at it! But~ it is....
Sometimes she doesn't feel confident or she's not feeling emotionally strong, or she's just dog-tired ~so to speak~ and needs someone to hug her and tell her it's ok...or just hug her and don't say anything (Being a woman of few spoken words, this one works just fine for me)
There doesn't need to be a 'next step' from cuddling if you know what I mean. There can be, but for her, when she is feeling that way ~there should be no pressure or guilt placed on her....respect her boundaries.
Sometimes I tell my hunny, 'You're in my bubble'...and
Something in our DNA makes us attracted to our polar opposites...I used to think it was some heavenly joke, but now I think God is conducting a case study to figure out how to teach us tolerance, patience, kindness, and love since we are such a stubborn pile of chromosomes.
In my case, I am an Introvert, and he is an Extrovert. I can't tell you how many times in the past 7 years he has said or done something in public that made me want to crawl under a rock and stay there....foorrreevverrr! And he probably can't tell you
Yeah I got the TT's ~ Texting Troubles that is...
I don't understand how the young ones don't struggle when texting...Perhaps it's because they don't take the time to spell out words or do any efficient punctuation, and I'm a little obsessed with it. (Just a little though)
The problem with texting especially in a disagreement with your wife or husband is there is no emotional ques behind them, so sarcasm can read like anger, and
I know that everyone says you should try to get along....but if you didn't, if it was a truly abusive affair...No, not like an affair affair...an affair as in <a matter causing public scandal and controversy: > then I don't see any sane reason you should be forced to revisit those instances, or those people who continue to be abusive to you.
