It's so much easier to focus on darkness instead of light. I wonder why that is. I don't have the energy it takes to get offended very easily anymore. Seems like a luxury of those who don't have *real* issues to deal with. Of course this is just my opinion...and I am not judging anyone else's desire to live as they choose. I would just prefer to keep my world untainted by hypersensitive people who have a need to find fault. There will always be " fault. " I just choose not to focus on it. I find it totally depressing. As has been said, " there was only one perfect person...and he got crucified " ... so.. I hope we can lighten up a bit here. ~FireSpirit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2000 Report Share Posted December 26, 2000 ive not said anything as not to cause problems but my Lord is everything to me, im not pushing it, selling it or telling it as i believe this will always offensive to some and im not accountable for anyones beliefs except my own, but when im reading post and find something offensive to my beliefs i hit delete cause i cant see everyone will be happy anyway its done, but ive seen no overextreme in all post just someone intending to reach out to another, what promted me to post is this is a great info. resourse and im on the same christian group norma is on ( i love you sis, norma) but im on a online alnon and they refer to higher power wich let me say is very offensive to me and the ones who chose to aknowledge the Lord do without slander and those who believe in something besides Jesus its thier higher power! cant we please in the name of peace support each other in whatever way we are comfortable?

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2003 Report Share Posted August 12, 2003 Lynne, I can't imagine how would have reacted had the boys been a little older when I got so sick. As it was, they were 8 and 10, and, well, they asked him to marry me. I think they really needed a healthy parent and saw as their rock. And, despite his juvenile temper tantrums, and his threatening to leave each and every time I try to get in between him and the boys with a punishment... He really has been the rock. One think that REALLY helped is a book called MAINSTAY. It is written by a caregiver for caregivers. It is a great resource for families and helps us sickies understand that everyone's lives are forever hard and changed and we all have to mourn some kind of losses outside the home. I hope you can get it and read it. love you, children8_2000 wrote: WELL I THOUGHT THAT MY DAYS HAVE BEEN WORSE, BUT THIS ONE HAS JUST ABOUT DONE IT FOR ME. NOT ONLY DO I FEEL LIKE SHIT,,,MY ENDOSCOPIC SCOPING AGAIN SHOWED NOTHING,,,SURPRISE, EVEN THOUGH I AM EITHER SITTING ON THE TOILET OR PUKING IN IT.AND TODAY HUBBY WENT OFF ON MY OLDEST SON. HE DID IT TWICE AND THE SECOND TIME IT WAS IN FRONT OF HIS FRIENDS, SO WE GOT INTO A BATTLE. i TOLD HIM THAT IF I HAD THE MONEY I'D TAKE MY KIDS AND LEAVE HIM. HE SAID THAT HE HAS HAD A HARD TIME "DEALING" WITH MY ILLNESS. "DEALING?" LIKE EVERY TIME I GO INTO THE HOSPITAL, HE TREATS THE KIDS LIKE SHIT, AND EITHER GETS ON MY CASE ABOUT THINGS LIKE THE BILLS NOT GETTING DONE AND HOW "HE CAN'T DO IT ALL" OR HE IS BREAKING SOMETHING. AND THEN HE SAYS THAT A LOT OF IT IS MY FAULT B/C I'M NOT THINKING OF HIS FEELINGS. "HIS FEELINGS?" I'M THE ONE WHO IS SICK, AND I TRY TO DO IT ALL SO HE DOESN'T HAVE TO. I HAVE ALSO TOLD HIM TO GO AND FIND SOMEONE TO "TALK" TO ABOUT THIS AND WHATS ON HIS MIND, AND HE REFUSES. HE SAYS THAT HE WOULD RATHER TAKE CARE OF IT HIMSELF. FINE,,,JUST STAY OFF ME AND THE KIDS. RIGHT ABOUT NOW, i COULD CARE LESS IF I EVER TAKE ANOTHER PILL OR SEE ANOTHER DR. AS LONG AS I LIVE. I HAVE TRIED TO TAKE CARE OF HIM AND THE KIDS,,,AND TRIED TO HELPO HIM THROUGH MY ILLNESS TOO, BUT ITS KINDOF HARD WHEN I CAN'T EVEN TAKE CARE OF MYSELF. I TOLD HIM DON'T EVER BITCH AT ME AGAIN FOR NOT GOING TO THE HOSPITAL WHEN I AM SICK OR SEEING THE DR AGAIN. I JUST REALLY DON'T WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH HIM AT ALL RIGHT NOW. AND I FEEL SO SORRY FOR MY SON, HE YELLED AT HIM IN FRONT OF HIS FRIENDS AND THEY JUST GOT UP AND LEFT, HE STILL HASN'T TALKED TO ME AT ALL ABOUT IT EITHER.OH WELL, I JUST HATE MY LIFE,,,AND I HATE WHOEVER GAVE ME THIS DISEASE AND LEFT ME THIS WAY.

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 This is the only thing that keeps me going.... thinking that there has to be a point to all this... something much bigger than myself. ------I sorta had this same revelation this past winter, when I finally figured out what was wrong with me (mercury poisoning). I felt like that is why God put me through all of this, was to help other people, becauseI don't think you can really understand it unless you've " been there " . Maybe we are the ones chosen to help put an end to this whole mess. Gives some purpose and meaning to all of our suffering. Anyway, I understand what you feel, Kris.------------jackie t.
