SOME DAYS YOU JUST HAVE TO WONDER-AND THEN TO PRAY

mondays can always be a weird day for some reason-personalities getting back together,maybe,after a weekend apart-dont really know-cant write much right now-too much to sort thru-it is now 9pm here-see if i feel like i can do this later-like i said-work personalities -cant seem to say what i want to say-cant seem to be who i need to be and know in my heart cant be anything but my self-help me with your wisdom and knowledge to see me thru times of getting me over the other side

  2. Some people are difficult to work with. But you just be yourself and don't let anybody antagonize you or make you feel bad about yourself. Some people are very negative to be around too. Jim has some good advice above. I think this blog is a good place to vent too. We are here for you and are looking forward to all the wonderful changes that are going to take place as you take one step at a time (or one day at a time.) Just hang in there and take good care of yourself. Hugs, Nancy

  3. My dad is right. One thing at time. i know one thing may seem too big to deal with but you can. Even if it is something stupid start small if you have too. But know that you must love yourself and be happy and satisfied with yourself before you can actually be happy. Build you self up first and all the problems big and small will be conquered in time. Keep your head up and breath and be strong we are all here for you.

  4. Cynthia, I can empathize with being a product of a broken home. My mom divorced my dad when I was two years old, and my sister was an infant. Then my mother basically abandoned us to go off with some guy who eventually ripped her off of pretty much everything she had, materially. My dad finally won custody of us after we spent several months in a state run home and a foster home. I still have vivid memories of that experience that are not pleasant at all. After my dad got custody of us, things went pretty well for about two or three years until Maryanne, my first step-mother left my dad because she felt like he didn't love her (he spent too much time away from home, drinking, and probably cheating, etc.). After that my grandma moved in for a while to help care for us, then my aunt, Marge (my Uncle Dave's widow), was our "mom" for a while, then she left because my dad was cheating on her, then my grandma moved back in for a while. Finally, my last step-mother, Pam, moved in and she stayed, which was okay for the first year or so, but then she had my little brother and sister, and all of a sudden it wasn't so pleasant anymore. My sister, Sandy, and I felt like extra furniture nobody really wanted, except my dad, but he wasn't around much, and when he was he was caught in the middle, and it got ugly sometimes. My sister still has issues with all that, but what can you do? You just have to make the best of what life has to offer.

    As I alluded to in an earlier post, we're all broken. None of us work just right. So we have to cut each other some slack. When our lives are rightly evaluated, we all have so much more to be thankful for than we have to complain about, it seems silly to spend so much energy on what isn't pleasant. Why not focus on our blessings? It's so much easier to forgive the shortcomings of our relatives, friends and co-workers, than to carry around hurt forever. If we forgive, the hurt can heal over time. If we don't, it won't. You can't just ignore what hurts, but if you forgive the people who hurt you, the hurt will eventually heal. Love is never carrying a grudge.

    Anyway, I don't know if any of that is helpful to you, but I felt impressed to share it.

    Blessings,
    Jack
