The Never Ending Discussion Game

[Grammalamma]

I work best under pressure. I am also a terrible procrastinator, but hey, who needs sleep?

do you have any siblings?

I am also a procrastinator.

I have one brother and two sisters. I had another brother who died last June.

Do you feel that there is a positive outcome from the trials you have had in your life?

 

[midnight star]

I've been fortunate enough to have few true trials, but I do believe that the ones I've gone through have made me a stronger person and have taught me valuable lessons about life.

Do you have any advice for my generation (20ish)?

 

[~Wisdom Seeker~]

Yes... To be abstract and generic I'll say this much:
• Be able to change your mind. Cut your losses or choose a new path without losing your sense of humor. Things happen. People who can adapt have a higher survival rate....and a better outlook on life as a whole.
•Seek out the silver lining in whatever trials are put in your way. Everyone has trials. No one goes through a full life without having a doozy or ten to help them grow spiritually, intellectually and grow compassion towards their fellow man.
•Don't burn daylight in situations that you are only doing to please someone else. Be strong enough to stand your ground and be who you are.
•People will treat you as well or as bad as you allow them to.
•People will believe what you believe about yourself. Never put yourself down or have open pity parties with frequency.
• Everything is subjective.

Sorry about that being a lengthy answer. I could go on for days. Just wish someone had given me advise. I've had to learn everything the hard way so far.

What is the significance of your avatar? What does it say about you?

 

[midnight star]

It has several meanings. First, i'm Wiccan, and i see it as a representation of the Goddess (moon imagery) and her watching over her creation, which brings me comfort. Also, my girlfriend (not a wiccan) has this poster in her bedroom because she likes that style of art, so it reminds me of her. The size of the avatar does not do the artist justice but its very nice in person.

 

[midnight star]

what does your avatar say about you?

 

[biblebeliever]

That I believe Jesus died on the cross for me and rose again so that all might be saved.

That's a good question so I'll ask it again--what does your avatar say about you?

 

[Starcradle]

At the root, that I am an idealist.

In Ecclesiastes, we read that there is a season for everything. What season are you currently experiencing (in the spiritual/emotional sense, of course)?

 

[Lost]

Spring.

What's your favorite movie?

 

[Starcradle]

Don't have one, I'm not a big movie fan at all.

Have you ever had anyone make you heart-shaped pancakes?

 

[Lost]

Yes! And they were red too!

Have you been on a roller coaster in the last 6 months?

 

[Starcradle]

Haven't been one in the last six years.

Name one of your worst fears.

 

[Lost]

Actually, I'm not really afraid of anything. I've been trusting in God to take care of me.

If I have to name something - it's not having anyone love me before I die. My heart aches at the lonliness.

Name one of yours now.

 

[Starcradle]

My worst fears have to do with turning my back on God at some point in the future, losing my salvation, etc.

I prayed to get thru the night, and I did.
