  • 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.

Perhaps I'm just pessimistic, but we're all very similar - there's nuance, yes, but generally, we're all pretty much the same. If you can get on with one person, chances are you'll get on just as well with the next. There was nothing 'special' about the first person.

Understand that there are as many compatible personalities as there are stars in the sky out there. So don't buy into the scarcity thing. It's an illusion.

I didn't know you made music! That's so cool!!!!
Thanks! I love your new avatar, by the way - it's so pretty! ^-^

I felt so miserable last night. Was not good.
I'm sorry you're struggling. You have my prayers. It might help to try counting your blessings, keeping busy, focusing on other things, thinking about what you have instead of what you don't have. I've been through some pretty depressing times myself so I know that isn't easy when you're feeling low. Hang in there, keep praying, and be assured of our prayers for you.

Multifavs have you seen the Sonic movie that came out a couple years ago?
I haven't seen it. I don't know a whole lot about the movie, but I'm not particularly interested in it.

Thank you. Keeping busy definitely helps (being slow today at work not helping) tho last night I was too upset to try to keep busy. Usually I'm never bored & am always doing something.

That’s no good. I thought you liked Sonic?

I do, but I'm not into the stuff from the past decade much aside from Sonic Mania. I feel that the Sonic series was better before 2010. Plus I prefer 2D animation over CGI and live-action when it comes to cartoon or video game characters, probably because it's what I grew up with.

In regards to game night: It will be mostly guys. The 1 or 2 girls there will be in relationships & will stay close to their boyfriends. The single guys will have conversations with me. The games will be fun, but I'll probably be bad at them. Overall it'll be fine but probably lead nothing in regards to relationships.
I've done game nights before. Rinse & repeat.
I'm tired of people saying 'oh you need to try game nights' or 'oh you'll meet one at work' or 'oh you'll meet one at church' or 'oh someone will introduce one to you.' Never.

BTW my counselor is having me read the end of Job where God speaks to Job. That is my favorite!

Your dreams sound amazing. I have had movie like dreams but normally it's a real franchise and I'm in it. It seems like in our dreams we have more potential for things like art and music than we know how to realize. Or maybe it's because our mind does everything and we don't need drawing technique or knowing all the instruments.

I do wonder if some artists are able to use dreams to unlock their creativity. Like paint things in dreams or come up with music then put it down in real life. A really good lucid dreamer might be able to remember the details perfectly. But when I try to lucid dream I get insomnia. <.<

.... Sampa has awesome dreams.

Also, this means you definitely need to go back to Japan and audition for a starring role if they ever choose to make a modernized live-action Sailor Moon remake over there.

The king of biting cold sarcasm, that was Dorothy Zbornak. ..... Hence why she was my favorite among the four Golden Girls.

I was reading it’s a myth that Satan is on equal footing w/ God & they’re rivals. Satan is in reality a servant of God & God grants him authority than anything. This explains how he can be the prince of the world but Jesus is still the king, how bad things still work to God’s plans, & how humans still have authority of what they do. This also makes me think the idea that Satan led a rebellion against God is incorrect but it still could be true.

I used to long-distance run. I ran a marathon too. I don’t think I’ve run any more than 20 minutes on the treadmill since! Bad me!

That's great! We'll see how everything goes. Definitely not easy. I wasn't able to run for about 7 years consistently and got back into it 2 years ago. It was gradual from walking and lots of foam rolling to work on my IT band. Have to strengthen your glutes a little bit too. 20 minutes is still good That's what I'm doing for the winter three times a week, but in snow and ice.

Bleh, I sleep way too much. I feel like I've just been working this week, then having dinner, then reading Bible/praying for a half hour to an hour, then watching a 20 minute TV episode, then bed time. That's a lot of sleep.

That is a very cool dream and I like that there is a spiritual meaning to it. For me, I watch a lot of fantasy stuff so occasionally I'll dream I'm a character with powers like in Dragon Ball Z or something similar to that. A lot of my dreams relate to family though. Maybe since a lot of my family I live far away from and don't get to see much.

I've felt like that a lot. Not strong enough or not enough this or that. One of my lucid dreams I was being attacked by monsters and I was like "Wait, they can't do anything to me!" and I destroyed them like it was nothing. That was extremely satisfying.

Maybe we'll both have great dreams soon. ^-^
