• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

IJWTS - I just made a 25 minute trip in just under 20 mins, and I got caught in traffic too. A M3 and me were kinda going back and forth on the freeway. It was funny, cuz he kept getting caught behind cars, the would pass me, etc. Was a fun ride home, went to a bar featured on the food channel known for it's chili.

IJWTS - Ha ha... gotta love it. I've found that if I stick in a particular lane on the way to work, I end up passing most of the "fast" drivers. :D

IJWTS that my ID number at work is 666. They told me it was totally a coincidence, but I aint convinced.

IAJWTS I am still trying to figure out why we even have ID numbers, as we don't use them for anything.

What is it that you want to change? I hope you don't mind me asking this :sorry::). Everyone has flaws and stuff that they are not happy with, they aren't perfect so don't feel bad for not being perfect either :). I hope that God continues to guide you and mold you - I hope the same for me too.

p.s I complain a lot too :sorry:

IJWTS B4A had flaws? There is NO way!!!!!

We all have flaws, babe, and that doesn't make you a bad person. In fact, admitting your flaws and wanting to change makes you a great person. It's not our falls that define us, but whether or not we get back and keep going.

IJWTS - Complaining(without realizing i'm even complaining half the time, thinking i'm just stating how I feel about things)

Whining

My selfishness

Hangups I have about money

Not following my words through with actions

Being insensitive and rude by making dumb jokes to and about people because I am insecure and I think it will make me look better or atleast sound better when I can't think of anything intelligent to say.

Acting immature and reverting to my childhood self when I feel too overwhelmed and don't want to handle reality like an adult.

Being lazy and unmotivated

Lacking self control

Being overly sarcastic

Making people feel unappreciated and used.

just to name a few :holy:

IJWTS the sarcasm thing aint so bad... i think it's hawt!!! :)

I understand where you are coming from. Often times, I focus more on the flaws and use them as an excuse or a crutch instead of looking at my flaws and figuring out ways to make it better and fix what's broken.

Hopefully, this will become a "repair" list and not an "excuse" list for ya. That will be my prayer for you.
