  FORNICATION - Friend or Foe?

  by adamgraziano in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  is fornication as bad as the jw's say it is?

  jw quote - "the aftereffects of immorality are as bitter as wormwood and as sharp as a two-edged sword?painful and death dealing.

  a troubled conscience, an unwanted pregnancy, or a sexually transmitted disease are often the bitter consequences of such conduct.

  Foe. Been there - done that. First marriage had sex before marriage. Second time around waited until the judge signed the certificate ( I was 32, Bud was 44). It is now 30 yrs later and we are closer than ever due to common interests besides sex.

  I think of sex as the 'frosting' on the 'cake' of life. One can live on 'cake' alone, it's better with a bit of 'frosting', but all 'frosting' and no 'cake' is not good for one. What is important is the 'cake'/life's partner. Chosen wisely, he/she will 'sustain' you for the rest of your life.

  Where are we all going.....What happens........?

  i watch families crowding around a loved one in hospital whom i'm taking care of who die......sometimes they're old, but that doesn't diminish their pain, still the hurt is palpable.

  sometimes they are young, this increases their pain and ours even more.

  a death occurs, we feel hopeless, they are distraught beyond belief..... what to say?

  Dear, dear Scooby, I am so sorry that Kate is no longer with your family. Perhaps it will help to know that your grief and frustration are shared by many, many others. Here is a web site that may help in your comfort and healing.

  Rainbow Bridge

  Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
  
  When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
  There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
  There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
  
  All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
  The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
  
  They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
  
  You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
  
  Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

  edited to add that this is not original material, but a post i found on a toronto job search newsgroup.

  some of the original work was removed because of potentially offensive content.

  but i can definitely relate to some of the sentiments here.. walter.

  So happy to learn that I and iiz2cool are from the same planet. Makes me tired to read it all, but happy and content to know that Walter is 'out there somewhere', a kindred spirit.

  If anyone is interested in restoring autos, I have a 1959 Oldsmobile 88 that I would like to see get a new home. It would be considered in 'fair to good' condition, and has been stored in a machine shed since 1980.
