Unconditional love?

by Snoozy in

whatever happened to "unconditional love"?.

why is it today so many are willing to shun a friend or relative because they are just too much trouble or they do something that irritates them.... they claim that the other person is "not healty for them" or "harmful to their mental health" be it a relative or a goof friend.

too ready to write them off so to speak.. what happened to the kind of unconditional love that loves in good and bad times..... i don't get it... i guess "unconditional love" doesn't exist anymore.

I was talking about people in general..I have relatives that get their nose out of joint at a family member and refuse to talk to them..One of them even oked it with a counselor..the counselor backed up their feelings. Said it was OK to have no contact or limited contact with someone (family or not) if they wanted to...

I always felt that family should stick together no matter what. Talk out the problems and come to a happy medium somehow
Even with good friends, none of them are perfect but if you throw away everyone you disagree with or if they have an opinion you don't like you will soon end up all alone..

Just doesn't work for me..

People just aren't tolerant anymore..they constantly find fault with others and want others to be perfect like they are..

A Moment Of Truth For 'Illuminati' Types!

sometimes i post here because i don't know where else i should post, as to odd or unusual ideas.

there seem to be quite a lot of people on the internet who zealously believe that the world is covertly ruled by some conspiracy or masonic lodge or bilderberg group or intelligent reptiloid aliens who dress up as the british royal family ( i imagine an alien complaining, 'why do i have to be queen elizabeth?').

in other words, a bunch of powerful people who control everything.. well, it seems to me that we are approaching a moment in which we will see just how much control any such group really has.

There ya go LRG..

I really really believe it!..When you been around as long as me you see and hear and read a lot..then you put two and two together..

Youngsters call you cynical..I call it observant.

Works for me..

I believe there is a 'elite group' that really controls the world/government.. I think they know who will even be president in the future and they make things happen.l. I think voting and laws are all a useless coverup..just there to appease the public.

I think some of what the Illuminati stands for is true in that sense..

I really feel the ones with the big bucks..control the world..and they go out of their way to appear as if they don't..

Those are the ones with the real power.

I don't believe there is a heaven...

by Snoozy in

i don't believe there is a heaven that so many religions teach, do you?

it all sounds like a fairy tale made up to make dying easier or as a threat to make someone have a conscience... i got into a discussion about it with my jw converted to catholic daughter and she just couldn't believe anyone could feel like i do.

i am glad she threw away the jw teachings and glad she believes in something so wonderful but i for one just can't.

I also can't believe there is such a person/thing as a devil..

And yet I have morals, I am programed to do "the right thing" whenever I can but not because of any punishment from god, just because I feel it is a humane way to be.

I confuse myself sometimes..

Now my daughter is intent on proving there is really a Heaven..I hate to argue with her because I don't want to bust any bubble she may have for her future.

Just one of those crazy things old/mature people think about..

attention !

i just talked to our dear tal, she is a sick puppy.

so, she's really disappointed as she's been dealing with this problem for quite a while now.

Good thing about our insurance here in USA.. I have GHP through A.A.R.P. and it is great..It cost me $160. a month but it is so worth it. I get in right away if I need surgery..(hopefully I don't). No waiting.. I also have Medicare part A and B and D..so I am fully covered..I can go to any Dr I want and it is covered..I have no co pays and and deductables are covered by GHP..so no out of pockets..

Love it!..Only thing better would be to be free with all the same benefits.

Only thing I pay for is prescriptions after I hit the Gap..and even then it has been cut to half price on them..which is such a relief..

I hope all goes well and your foot pain is fixed..my daughter just had her bunions operated on and gets 6 weeks off work. She feels it was well worth it..

LOL rebel..

I saw a article posted on facebook about someone (a inactive witness) that had found out a man from the congregation was watching her house for a while and turned him in for stalking...I guess he was trying to get the goods on if she was celebrating holidays so he could turn her in..

Do Aliens Exist for you? If so, how do you rationalize them with Spirituality?

I too have often wondered. I feel they may exist but then again something so far out there is hard to believe.

If you go by gut feeling, yes I do feel there is someone/something out there besides us. Scarey isn't it..

Is homosexuality ever justifiable? I say YES!!!

by TimothyT in

in the january 2012 awake, pages 28-29 there is another article about homosexuality.. .

the writers argue that genetics, the environment, and sexual abuse do not justify homosexuality.

the bible clearly states that homosexuality is wrong and is an abhorrent sin.

Snoozy

Something I have never understood (since discovering there were gay people) is why do gay men seek out men that look and act like women ?

And why do gay women seek out "Butch" women that look and act like men?

Doesn't that sort of defeat the whole "Liking same sex" thing .?

Shouldn't they be attracted to someone that is like them of the same sex? Wouldn't a gay man seeks out a manly man and a woman seeks out a feminine female if they were truly attrated to the opposite sex?

Just wondering..

Anybody work in finance?? I need some advice

ok here's the deal.

every since amanda moved out i have been surviving on one income, and lately i have been strapped for cash.

my bills are behind, my credit cards are behind, needless to say im broke.

Have you inquired if your bank has overdraft protection? If you have a current and in good standing checking account they often give you a $2,500. line of credit on your checking account..you may ask about that. If not I would surely go for credit counseling as someone suggested. My son is going through hard times also and that is my recomendation to him.

They can give you instructions on how to deal with the people you owe and often can work out arrangements to lower interest on your loans and possibly cut the amount you owe..it's worth a look up.

Good luck!
