I remind myself that everyone has their own personal convictions. What I may see as perfectly fine, someone else may totally disagree. It also comes down to respect for ourselves, our morals/values, and the relationship we have with Christ.

Yes I "slip-up!"
I am happy to announce I am NOT perfect! There are things in our lives that come easier to ignore than others and when we give into those particular urges, behavioral patters, and even old addictions - we can't beat ourselves up! A few weeks ago I gave into temptation which ended with me screaming at myself, freaking out, and I was repenting like Jesus was coming back the next day. It was so insignificant that finally when I shut-up, I realized how much I was over-reacting! I then thought, "Ya'know I'm sincere in my repenting, God still loves me, I'm not a bad person..."

Some Questions
Do you question the reality of the truth?
Do you second guess nature and it's inevitable abilities?
Do you walk to the beat of your own drum?
Do you feel the inescapable throbbing of someone elses pain?
Do you glance beyond yourself to solve the problem of another?
Do you wake for you and you alone?
Does the cloudiness in your memory frustrate you to anger?
Does the constant ache for more than 'this,' seem never-ending?
Does the facial expression on your face when you see yourself in the mirror, reflect respect?
Does the pessimist in you thrive for something more uplifting?
Does your life exist around the standards others have placed on you?
Does life mean more to you than struggling to get out of bed and forcing yourself to be fake?
Is there no alternative for you?
Is there no other way for you to be genuinely happy?
Are the lies you've believed getting you anywhere?
Are the words you speak, words of death and destruction?
Is there hope for you?
Are you ready for a change?
...what are you waiting for?

Hi
I'm still here... for those of you that read this and are remotely curious about my absence. Of course I really haven't been away from here that long, just seems like it I guess.
I'll write more later. For now, I'm off to bed.
