Show Them You Care

I know that if I just randomly dropped out of contact with everyone I know I would get a fair few question thrown at me. Worried people may just text or call me, but those who truly cared would come round to my house and ask me face to face what is happening.

Given that, why do we accept it as part of everyday life when people just stop coming to groups/meeting or social events? Surely it is the same thing?

Does compassion go beyond the physical? Or is it just being stuck in an emotional state? I think it has a lot more to do with the soul. Yeah that old thing, threaded into your body. It is having the mindset to care about others - even those that may not care about you - and how you can help them achieve a fuller, more beautiful life. Even when you are at a low point in your life. True compassion, grows from within, and is a pure gift from God. It is a keystone of Love, without it there is no care or support.

So what do we do when people just stop coming or stop caring? We set out to show them how much their friendship and contact mean to us and others; and we go to not take no for an answer. They must be shown that they are not alone, or that there is more to life than this, or that there is someone listening.

If you pause because you are thinking of consequences...don't! Just go, if you feel they need some help, then God will deal with the resolution, but it's up to you to start the action.

Removal

Of course when you haven't written for a while you tend to go off topic as I did in the last post, but that's the game we play.

Life isn't fair. Is it safe to assume we have established this fact in our individual lives? Of course it all depends on your point of view. Sometimes we say life isn't fair because we aren't getting our own way [how selfish of us], but sometimes we are more than right.

Is it fair that murderers and criminals who have made people suffer and have killed are able to walk free because they say their human rights are being compromised? After they have killed and removed human rights from so many people. The world MUST be in a dire state when that happens, when justice has to blindly follow a set of rules, which any person in the street can see are wrong. When these murders have removed their victims human rights should they not have theirs removed also? is it right that serial killers with no regret are given bail after 15-20 years? Should they not be put to death?

Of course some people would say that killing a killer only brings you down to their level. But to kill someone, who would murder over and over again and who sees nothing wrong with it, is that not a service to the Country, for the protection of the masses? I strongly think it is. And to me a bit of rope and a wooden cross frame MUST be a hell of a lot cheaper for the government than keeping them alive.

We are in an economic crisis and that is my idea for saving some money which the Government can use for the people affected.

A strange direction or just life?

What strange paths the journey of life takes us on. Yet we say strange in that context rather freely, as if we have had some pre-birth experience of life with which to compare our present life. Is any situation in life strange? Or are we to just expect or in fact, hope for everything that comes our way?

People, humanity has existed for a long time, and in that time it is safe to say that people have gone through all sorts of trouble. But none of them are inconceivable, as even now writers are coming up with some almost impossible stories, which capture the people’s imagination because of their likelihood.

So what can we say about the paths of life? These “strange” directions that our lives can follow? I would say this; there must be a finite number of paths, they may be as numerable as the stars, but I recon at least one human has traversed each path. Not saying that one man has travelled them all, but that in fact each path has had one traveller upon it.

And thus there will always be someone who has experienced what you have. Meaning that advice is always out there in one form or another, and people who care will try to help. How "strange" life is! Or just maybe, what an adventure today is!

Also it is important to realise that the world doesn't revolve around you. If you feel life is unfair and these "strange" twists are taking you into worse and worse situations. Perhaps your the one getting in the way. Maybe these directions are trying to show you the way forward while you're too busy concentrating on your job or looking behind you. Just follow them. But be careful not to follow all of them. Some will try to lead you off into worse places, it takes understanding, selflessness and faith to pick the right strange twists.

Relational Advancement

You know if you want to get to know someone, texting, instant messaging and even video calling is good, but you never get the whole story. If you want to know someone really closely, you have to spend time with them. So you can see how they react, but also so they understand how you react in certain situations it's a two way thing.
The best thing i can recommend if you are feeling down is to be with people who can understand how you are feeling, but also engage with you on a level that you are comfortable with. Yes it's good to spend time alone, but too much of that and your thoughts will wander into areas you may not really understand.
Being with people can help keep you in check, even if your mood is bad. You just let them know how your feeling and try to be civil and responsive. So maybe civil isn't a word you've heard for a few years, but i believe it's still relevant in today's society. In once definition it means to keep to the normals of polite social relations. Not necessarily sincere but at least responsive.
Back to the main point. relationships are pivotal in our day to day lives. They help us grow in so many ways and understand so many things. Without them we become estranged and lost. But don't let things drift about in friendship. You must let them know you are friends and your life actions must back up that statement. I'm not talking about entering a dating relationship, but rather showing all your friends that they do actually mean more to you than just someone to talk to. So spend time with them, talk about life and the future and help them as best you can. Otherwise, you will be a bored, disillusioned old man/woman for the rest of your life.

Love, Emotions and Life

Why does life never go the way we want it to? In my life that is one of the most relevant questions i have ever heard. Sometimes i feel like complete rubbish because i feel there is no one there.
A feeling of deep sadness or loss sometimes engulfs me. I wonder at life and try to show people how i feel, who i really am; but selfish emotions lead nowhere. So what can we do?
a few hard ideas here. Stop thinking about yourself, damn, if it was just that easy. But really if you spend more time helping others your own wants will die away. Remember in life it's not what we want that matters its what we need.
Remember that there will always be people who love you. You can talk to people you trust if you go about in the right attitude, don't be self centered just explain it as a life consuming problem.
Try to do things that engage your time well and make you feel good inside and out. Its a cliche answer but helping others works. Also you could try changing the world/or just your lifestyle.
Now, lets get to a more direct issue. Is there a someone who makes you feel joyous one day and hopeless the next? Emotions are a two-edged sword; used with skill it can be precise, used without it can be lethal. I won't give you people any advice i wouldn't try myself, but get to know them. Get to know the person you like (or think you like). I know it sounds strange but it will save a lot of time later on. Most times you just like them for their looks, but personality is just as important. You may find out their going in a completely different direction to you and on that you don't want to ruin a good friendship.
Spend time with them, if they want to. Don't create any uncomfortable moments that you both may regret. Show them that you care about them. A lot of people don't make the effort, but it's worth it, after all they're going to want to talk to someone who wants to know.
A good strong relationship takes time. A lifelong marriage was never built overnight so move forward together at a rate you are both comfortable with. And talk about it. Talk about where your relationship is going. Talk about how you are feeling, help each other and understand one another. Conversation can build so many bridges and open so many doors and create so many more cheesy metaphors, talk and share your love show your feelings, support each other and there is one more thing.
God. Creator of all, friend to all. Father and provider. If you put God at the center of all you do you cannot go wrong. Let God help and guide you in daily life and ask him about the major decisions in your life. God wants to know how you are doing and how he can help.

God wants to know you so listen to THIS.

Simplicity

I only ever wanted to live life. But now i find my 'day to day' life filled with jargon, yes all this media and unnecessary overexertion by, well basically everyone. "I want to live in a world..." are words that can so easily roll off our tongues, but unless we become 'proactive' and strive for change ourselves nothing will happen.
Do I plan ahead and think about the future? I recall an incident several years ago with a 'friend'. I would see her every week at least once and we would talk at length about lots of different things. I just saw us as friends, but I think she saw it as something more. We drifted apart and for a couple of years i forgot about her. It sounds truly horrific but I did, I just didn't care. I only remember her again when I heard a particular song which I'm sure we both loved.

So remember what was given, remember life has a reason and remove the jargon from your life. So that simplicity and freedom from God can be given to you and your families. And so that we can step on into the future together.

Have we ever had innocence?

It is childish to think that every person sees life in the same way. Here's an example. If we all saw the world exactly the same, we would be ruled over by one Global Government, and we would all freely take part in the party.
Fortunately, we are all much different and can see the world in our own ways. But this causes problems. This can cause cross purposes and in our minds people are insulting us when in fact they are complementing. Fortunately, this is where patience is key. We can spend time asking them what they meant and understanding their point of view. Thus we can develop together and help others see the different points of view.
Harmonisation. Not only in society with our friends and people, but inside us also. If we are all mangled up inside where our beliefs are constantly clashing with our lifestyle then we will act differently towards each other. A bad man cannot be made good by society, only by changing the fundamental morals on which he acts. If you see no link between these two truths (harmonisation and morals) then go, see how people with twisted morals react towards others and how their behaviour limits their uses. Then you may be able to understand that we need to be in harmony, as a united World. So that we can take the last few steps into the unknown together.

A Modern Interpretation

One of the duties of the church is to understand politics. Not to take politics on, but to understand the usage of it. For to start using politics will lead to division and malice amongst the members of the church. But to understand the principles and reasons for using politics helps to combat the effects of the government, and under careful guard and development could lead to a better life in the church. As a whole the church would gain a larger place in the minds of individuals, and the congregation would be united in larger decisions made by the church. The works of God would be seen more clearly by the public and the preciousness of them would be understood.

Reduction is Gain

Politicians will lie and they will backstab and they will do whatever it takes to (in England anyway) become Prime Minister. While convincing the public that they have the people’s interests at heart, rather than the massive pension on which each Prime Minister can retire. “Any former Prime Minister is entitled to half his £194,250 salary index-linked against inflation for the rest of his life.” This is a direct quote from
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/finance/ianmcowie/100005545/number-10-defends-gordon-browns-gold-plated-pension/
for those who are interested. Oh and don’t forget the £2 million worth of assets they get as standard. It just shows that any man who is ‘chosen’ (don’t forget we don’t really live in a world of freedom – see 1984 by George Orwell) to ‘run’ the country will probably not make much difference, considering their first aim is ‘to look after number 1’. Any decision a Prime Minister makes probably comes from a higher authority that chooses to be invisible, while still manipulating the country for the gain of power.
So the question is, why does the general public let it continue? Because a large percentage of us are afraid of change. We are scared of the impact of change, which we are responsible for. The government has succeeded in making the general public feel unable to run the country, so any decision we make will be the wrong choice, but for us as individuals it will be the most bearable choice. We have to believe we can do what they do, but better, in order just to overcome their pressurization.

Help from Above

Boldness in decision making is vital. As the future come ever closer we as individuals but also as humanity will have some tough choices to make. But fear not for we are not alone.
We have a God who loves us. We have a God who will put us on the right paths and who will show us where to go. For we are all special, we are all unique, we are all loved...and we are all needed.
