If we forgive them they could retaliate on us. This is true. If we don’t God won’t forgive us. Not being forgiven is a huge temptation. If nobody will give you the time of day imagine what that could do to your life? God said woe be to the tempter. Easy to call someone not a Christian once they are set down the wrong path. Nobody’s life should be summed up by the actions of one moment in time.
Not sure if anyone out there is reading any of this. If they are I lack support. I have used this blog as a bit of a vent for me personally when originally designed it to be a way to share some of the programming knowledge I have. If there is some content on here that is too adult for some audiences please forgive me. I was left with a lot of why’s in life, and this highlights my frustration and thought processes.
A lot of this stuff has been probably thought of before, maybe just some were not willing or able to speak it to me directly. Ignorance is bliss might apply to some situations, but when you find out things too late in life to do anything about it, it feels like a kick in the teeth. Still some answers beat none at all. Life is fast paced and full of obstacles and not everyone has time to slow down to tell people what’s up. This can be really difficult for children and young adults.
I too am just trying to put the puzzle pieces together at times so if these thoughts don’t correlate to your life experiences or you have other sets of thoughts please feel free to let me know. Please use words and speak to me directly though because silence and painting without words can leave a lot open to interpretation. I generally like looking at a painting, listening to a song, or watching a movie with out commentary first as most people will perceive it that way. It is nice to have commentary though on what the author was thinking. People’s lives can be looked at like a painting but think of words and support as part of the paint. Without them your left with an unfinished masterpiece.
I realize at some times people aren’t at liberty to speak to me directly, just please don’t use that as an excuse if not actually necessary. Further if you speak to me directly please try to use a light touch when possible. Also try not to leverage those in charge, because if they feel someone is scamming them, they might drown out the real cries for help.
