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.

What's on your mind?

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully things get better for you soon.

I can't complain. Been through a lot since I left in January-- probably the hardest time of life so far, but God was with me, and He's showed me miracles.

At least it's not been boring - that's what you've got to keep reminding yourself. It doesn't matter what happens to me, just so long as I'm not bored. I HATE being bored. It's just so, well, boring.

Dude, I can't even remember what being bored is like. Just sitting around with nothing to do? Where I can I get me some of that? : P

Don't ask me, I work over seventy hours a week. It's a good thing I'm developing impeccable time management, or else I'd have no life.

It's amazing what the human body can adapt to. VERY rarely do I get tired now. I wake up at three every morning, and I won't even begin thinking about sleep until about eleven.

Dairy farming isn't something you do for comfort. You have to be a little bit of a oddball to be perfectly honest.

I think it really, really sucks that I have such a hard time branching out from small talk to deeper, more substantial, conversation (it's like having to subsist on celery and carrot sticks when you're craving a steak), and sucks even more that fear of rejection is half of why I haven't gotten very far with that.
Social anxiety is like having someone put their hands over your ears in one social setting or another, and whisper all kinds of not-so-sweet little nothings to you.
Back to dwelling on my shortcomings.

Well, I wish you luck with that. I used to keep everything to myself and didn't talk to many people.

I was so bad in fact that I was forced to see several psychiatrists.... people put it in my parents heads that "being so anti social was a sign of mass depression." They didn't think about the fact that I didn't speak to anyone cause I had nothing to say to any of the people that were around me cause I was surrounded by morons.

Now I just don't care. It gets easier the more you do it..... just focus on your first steps and before you know it you look back and made a ton of progress.

As far as rejection.... just remember. If everyone loves you...... you're doing it wrong.

If someone hates you..... it means they give you power over them. You have the ability to make or break their day by simply being there. Smile at them and say thank you.... it REALLY ticks them off.(Which getting under their skin gives you even MORE power over them)

OMM: Jaguars this weekend..... I wanna go back to the offseason when I was excited about this season. If we don't beat the Jags Im done wasting my time for the rest of the season.

Too bad the new Jesse Stone isn't going to be on at the same time as the Texans game...... I would be able to watch the show early and not even be torn about missing the Texans.

Yes I did! It was different. I was surprised by the new character they're adding to the team. Should be interesting to find out more about her and her story. What did you think of it?
