  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

34. i know my fears control me

I am not ready for the struggles ahead. I am not prepared. I am weak and am unsure of where I stand in recovery. I don't know what I am doing.

Do I want to live or do I want to die? My T challenged me today - what is it going to take, April, to make you want to live?

The answer is... I don't know. I really don't. Do I want to live? I know that I want to get married... but beyond that, I don't see anything. I don't really see myself graduating college. I don't see myself getting a good job. I don't see myself going to grad school, graduating grad school with a doctorate... I don't see any of my future plans actually happening. But I guess that's what they mean when they say take one day at a time. Right now, April, you've just got to live through today and make it til tomorrow. Do what you can today, live the best you know how, focus on the light at the end of the tunnel (but is it really there?) and keep going from there.

Four years. Four long years. Over a hundred permanent, deep scars. And it's all got to stop.

I'm sorry I'm writing about this so much. It's just on my mind so much. Feedback would be appreciated, help, distractions, hope for the future.
