Sigh

It's Friday. I'm tired, had some freaky dreams. I'm bummed, my friend hasn't emailed me so I don't know if she's still mad at me and I can't go to her house because when someone kicks you out of their house you can't just go back, u know?

Sigh.

But it's time for lunch. So I'm breaking from blogging and stuff for a few hours and will be back. Who knows what'll happen in the meantime.

I swear, I get in less trouble here than I do in the "real world".

I think you may have to approach her and offer an olive branch here, Ciera. Hope the two of you become friends again soon.

Oh, I've approached her...and have been told how influenced I am by the devil...

aren't we all to some degree?

Sigh.

What is gossip? My dictionary of bible words tells me, "The gossip whispers poisonous reports in someone's ear in private that he or she would not dare to say in front of the person talked about." According to this defenition, if you are willing to talk about it with the person of topic in conversation, then it is not gossip. My Pastor actually says something about different about it though. He goes so far to suggest that if you have a problem concerning a person, then the person that you talk to about the problem should have some role to play in solving the problem, otherwise, it is gossip. Could it be a mixture of these two definitions? Just some food for thought. I mean, if there is a problem with your friend and someone else, wouldn't you be a good friend if you could help bring about a solution by talking about it, and promoting that solution, whatever it may be? I mean, there have been times in my life when I talked to a person about someone else so that the person I was talking about could be helped, or so that a conflict could be resolved. I don't know what the details of your situation are, but I just thought maybe, and I do mean maybe, it might be a help to you. If this is no help at all, and just confuses things, pretend I said nothing.

Huh?

LOL!

It was something I wouldn't have said in front of the other person, which is why I didn't want to talk about it. But since my friend would have been present had it not been for an important meeting, she didn't think it was wrong for me to share what was upsetting me. According to her, I apparently had some sort of demonic freak out about it.

Great. Just what I need.

Weekenders!!!

It's that time again. For Michele's weekend Meet-n-Greet. Some frown, but others gleefully play. Here's a question for all who visit here, whether on your own or from Michele's: Last night during a prayer meeting, I had a memory flash through my mind. More like the shadow of the memory. I was five years old or younger and I was begging my father for a peanut butter cake. I really wanted one, and even though I was interupting the adult conversation and probably being a regular brat...my Dad quit what he was doing to search for a recipe for a peanut butter cake...uhm, I don't think he ever found one so he made me a chocolate one with peanut butter frosting. This is probably the best memory I have of my father. So - what is your favorite childhood memory?????

A Situation

Ok. I need to think out loud here for a bit while I wait on email. I have a situation going on that could become tough. A bit of background: About 2 years ago, a single man started coming to my church and showed an interest in me. It lasted about a month and a half, with him giving me mixed signals all the time...since I have been praying for a husband for a while now, at the time, it seemed like my prayers were being answered despite the confusion. It all came down one night about midnight in his parking lot and I haven't talked to him since. He only stayed around for another 7-8 months, and those were very hard months. He lied to me and mislead me, often. Like it was second nature for him. It was made even more traumatic by a discovery of mine on a website shortly after he left the area. In September 2005, I had a blind date that was far from fruitful. My singleness and desire to be married is known to all in church, and so... To the present: Yes, another single man has walked in...

Shock and Awe

It is a strange thing. How someone can say, "I'm sorry, please forgive me" and still manage to correct you all at once...it is truly amazing to me. I was shocked that this person actually admitted to being wrong, and at the same time, I was ashamed for wanting it. But it got me to thinking. About Repentance and Forgiveness...how once they have happened...there is healing and restoration. I haven't completely researched it yet, but the verses I've peaked at in James make me think I'm not far off. I wonder, just as one person sinning can spoil others...can one person repenting turn others to repentance? Hmm.... Of course, as in any relationship situation...it helps to know the whole story. Why do we do that, I wonder? Close up and not share what is going on, I mean. I know that sometimes, there are things that hurt too deep to share right away. It is frustrating. Thanksgiving looks to be a dismal day so far. I'm not about ready to invite myself to any...
