What's on your mind?

[.Mikha'el.]

V day approacheth.

I wish I could do something for her, to show my affection, but ... it just wouldn't be right in this case.

If I recall, you said she was taken, so I would agree with you.

So what are you all doing for Valentines day? I have church that day and other than that probably not too much.

 

[VanillaLion]

i wish money was never created. imagine living on earth for free without money. i think that is the way it should be. why was money created? people would be happier and less depressed without money.

so many people suffering from homelessness. meanwhile there are billionaires with mansions. i just don’t understand how it can be this way. it needs to change.

the homeless shelters need to improve.

I want to work on finding out what God's calling for me!

I thought you didn't want one?

Definitely church!

Other then that, nothing as typical for Valentine's Day -> day to remember I've always been single

I am financially well-off. Money doesn't bring happiness. Anyone w/ money can attest to that.

Exactly.

I would wish it on NO woman for her to commit adultery - either in her heart, or otherwise. Even if I COULD benefit massively from it. Indulging a crush is you essentially willing for her to make a mistake. Telling her how you feel is just solidifying it.

Put those taken women out of your mind, it's not fair on them or you. If you respect them, then suck it up. You have to, there's noting else you can do.

I don't want to come down hard on anyone, but... You really DO have to respect people for who they are, and not what they are. And who she is, is a woman who is spoken for.

Trust me, the nice guy in me wants to humour this fantasy, but the integrity in me won't allow it. I know I have a history of being acid-tonged, but I can't be anything else. I'm a straight shooting London boy.

Want one what?

 

[DragonFox91]

Want one what?

I thought you didn't really want a date. Not surprised tho, hardly anyone wants to be single.

Treat her the way you expect men to treat your future girlfriend/spouse and you won’t go wrong.

For me, probably nothing except make a Valentine's Day recipe with my mom. Not sure what we're going to make yet.

I hope everyone has a multi-awesome Valentine's Day.

Pretty much in a rage all day today.

 

[DragonFox91]

Believers, what's your thoughts on drinking?

I think it's okay, even getting drunk. As long as it's occasional, as long as it's in situations that won't lead to sin.

I'm pretty 'fundamentalist' in my beliefs, but I really really don't see a problem w/ drinking or getting drunk as long as guidelines above.

Noooo! Why for?

I know I am the resident heathen.. but I believe the Bible more talking about alcoholism being sinful than people who responsibly get drunk every once in a while. The former causes harmer and the latter doesn't.

Jesus did turn water into wine at a wedding. It's a wedding.. I think it's expected that some people would get drunk. Logically I think a Christian has to come to the conclusion that it is fine to get drunk at appropriate times.

Noooo! Why for?

Just about my life in general.. how I have to deal with so many mental problems.

Order cancelled. Refund issued. The missing items were delivered today. Both of them.

I’m starting to hear a minor echo in the house. We removed a bookshelf and desk earlier. The replacements will be ready in a few days. I plan to add under the cabinet lights on the bookcases for greater visibility.

I’ve been pouring through the Kindle deals on cookbooks. They had some really good offers. I do it every month. I have a large collection of physical books and I’m restraining myself from buying more. But digital indulgences are permissible.

This looks really promising!

I had a hard time finding baskets yesterday. They’re made in factories now. Handmade ones are very sturdy and last forever. Quality can be hit or miss. It’s best to read the comments. I’m using them for towels and bed linens.

One of the most cost saving ways to create the home of your dreams is to use birthdays and holidays strategically. Build your wishlist and allow friends and loved ones to gift it.

PS. @cara-mia Mum wants a corset! You need to get on board. They have purple.

I have no issue with alcohol or genetic propensity towards abuse. I like wine, champagne, and French spirits.

I’m having Riesling now.

Interesting perspective on the wedding miracle. You're probably pretty familiar w/ the Bible then, (probably why you're a heathen too, eh?), what it teaches & what it doesn't.

I think also it might be referring to when you place getting drunk at the center of your life & not God. Like any other thing. Example: "No, I don't want to evangelize, I'd rather get drunk!' 'No I don't want to go to church, I spent all night partying getting drunk.' Things like that.

Me too, man.

No lol.. I am pretty illiterate when it comes to knowledge of the Bible. Was forced to read the whole book as a child but I was too young to really grasp it plus my heart wasn't in it to really soak the information up. I just have some foggy memories of bits and pieces, lol.

Yeah. My family (especially my father's side) has a history of alcoholism. So I know how destructive it can be. Despite being fortunate to have a father who was teetotaler.

Me too, man.

Something I've been hiding under the rug.. just today I realized how much of a freak I am.. and how I have mental issues that almost no one else experiences. Out of all the people in the world, why I am stuck with them. I know my sisters go through similar things.. as well as some of my extended family.. not quite sure what the genes are and what they do.. but they seem to be genetic.
