I talked to A, and J has had 3 brain surgeries since the car crash. If things go well, J had a year of therapy ahead of him after he get out of the hospital. One long road for this young couple. I told her many of my friends are praying for them.

Wow that is so sad! I will definitely pray for them! I met a gal at the dog park this week that got in a bad motorcycle accident and her arm is messed up pretty bad. She crashed and then got ran over! She truly is lucky to be alive. Such a sweet spirit she has too. I hope your tenant can make a full recovery.

Well, I had a great vacation with my GF from Canada. We relaxed, did a number of nature things, like the Leu Gardens where we had a very peaceful walk and took some pictures of each other. The house tour and hearing the history of the 4 wealthy families who lived there over the years was pretty neat as well.

Epcot was really nice, did the seed tour thru their green houses to hear about the experiments they are doing with raising plants and fish. Very interesting. Would be very interesting to do some of that try of plant growing, but I don't have the time or place to do it. We just bought a little food at each country so that we could tastes food from a few countries rather than being filled up at just one place.

A day at the beach in Clearwater was nice as well.
Also got a couple of more days of sun and relaxing at the pool. One being a nudist resort.

Then I got home and headed off to a New Culture workshop. Got to share my faith quite a bit. One of the main exercises was based on the book, The Five Love Languages. Was good to revisit that again as it had been 10 or more years since I last spent much time with that. Yet I have found many time this book has helped me explain how we express love to people in every day conversations.

No vacations now till New Years.

well not me. even if I had a rockin body I wouldn't want to look at all those that don't.

I've got your response a number of time when talking about this topic with different people. So that brings up a good question. If we don't want to look at people that don't have good bodies, are we really accepting them for who they are?

IDK but I don't like looking at myself, so not wanting to look at other not so hot bodies is fair IMO

Besides, don't you think you can accept someone without having to look at them naked? I just don't think naked bodies even if they are smokin hot are all that great to look at. In an intimate setting they are great for touching etc, but looks? IMHO not so much.

I see ...
For me the human body is the most beautiful creation that God made. Ya, some bodies meet my ideal of a perfect body. But even not so perfect bodies I find speak of who that person is. Yes, we accept people never having seen them naked. But there is an other level of acceptance that comes when we accept them as naked. Most of us dress to show/communicate a certain message. So we are often hiding something or at least we don't want to show that about our self. So put even what we don't want to show out there and find people are still accepting us I find to be very healing.

I don't think nudist camps are good places for believers to be, Day. :o

 

[dayhiker]

Purge .. that's a common belief in the Christian community.

I hear you, but I'm just saying for ME...I like viewing men from the waist up, not so much from the waist down. Sorry but I don't see anything "attractive" about male or female parts below the waist. I just don't. Then add in the fat and cellulite. Does not do a thing for me.

 

[dayhiker]

understand, Michelle.

I'm the same way. Someone posted illicit nude pics of Jodi Arias on another forum that I frequent, and I think I turned gay for a minute or two.

is it Web Sleuths? Anyway, Jodi Arias is one piece of work, and not that attractive IMO, not to mention she is a murderer of the worst kind. She couldn't just stab him, or just shoot him, no..she had to stab him 20 something times, shoot him AND slit his throat ear to ear nearly decapitating him! And now her trial is dragging on for more than 5 years because the jury couldn't agree on life or death? To ME it's a no brainer but...

Got into work this morning and the hard drive on my computer was dead. Left work early because it still wasn't working very well. But now I need to rake leaves!

So it just died in the night? I think you just wanted to rake leaves instead LOL

 

[dayhiker]

Your right .. I'd rather be outside getting the leaves raked. Got two back picked up today, 2 yesterday as well. So I'm at least half way done. Plus it was really nice out here today.

Just bought airline tickets to go see B in Niagara Falls Ontario Dec.13-15. She wants me to meet her family. Should be an interesting time from what she tells me about her family.
