and its 'goodbye from him'
by dostprefer ini've taken a leaf from holly's book to thank your for having me on the forum - thirteen interesting days but came to realise one cannot achieve much speaking from behind a screen.
people do not know who you really are, nor do you they.
i read many of holly's posts but few others.

I think it all comes down to 3rd grade wisdom, "It takes one to know one." If your heart is filled with lies and hate then you will surely find it no matter where you look.
Personally, I have found truth, love and healing here and not to mention lots of really funny stuff like the pee thread!!!!!!!

Do some WT phrases make you squirm?
by jeanniebeanz infor me it's "the doors of the ark are closing.
i can never forget as a child, being forced to see the graphic images in the publications showing families, mothers with little babies clinging to a rock and others drowning as the ark floats away.
fathers shaking their fists at god for destroying their families... it's like some of the little mind control still functioning in there somewhere causing a kneejerk reaction of uneasiness.... are there any others that bug you?.

My Mother, that sick &^%(&^$ used to love to remind us "Better is the day of your death than your birth" Imagine saying such a thing to a little kid. No wonder I never thought I was worth the paper I was printed on!

Forgiveness, How Far Do You Take It?
by prophecor inhas it ever happened to you, something so dispicable you would rather go to your grave, not having forgiven someone a wrong they had done you, hopeful that god would sort it out in the end?
mind you, i know things like child molestation, rape and murder are things for which it is difficult, if not impossible, to be forgiving of.
that being said, where does one draw the line on forgiveness?

Nancy Drake,
OMG I cannot not believe your reply, I thought I was the only person on planet earth to have a Mom that cruel. I have found it necessary to cut all ties with my mom because of her cancer and heart attack scares. I have let go of the anger, but I cannot let her hurt me anymore, it took 48 years of misery to get to this point.
I forgive you Mom, but no more.

I have wrestled with the same question. I think that forgiveness implies allowing that person back into a full role in your life. And I don't think that is necessary. If someone has proven themselves to be untrustworthy we need not let them back in.
I think we need to let go of hate and thoughts of revenge if you want to call that forgiveness. But if someone has been cruel and will probably do so again we can let go of hate without welcoming that person into our circle of loved ones.
When we forgive or let go of hate, we can send that person off to live their life in peace and wish them no ill will, but we need not be a part of their life, nor let them be part of ours.
Of course this is drastic and should be saved for extreme circumstances such as you described.

Do you let your feelings show at work. When I was a kid my Dad said I wore my heart on my sleeve, and I do. This always caused my Dad distress "you just can't do that" he would say. Well it happens and I don't want to seem unprofessional in the workplace. What to do, is it OK?
