to a question and I thought it was pretty insightful and my son recently said I keep having problems cause I don't learn what God wants me too..is this true..here is what the man said..please give me your opinion on this and answer a long thing if you can..I asked why is life so hard

he said Life is hard only when one does not recognize that the purpose of problems is for our own learning. If we learn the lessons presented by what we call problems, we acquire skills which make life much easier. Once the lesson is learned it is no longer presented or at least does not appear as a problem.
Failure to recognize the lessons inherent in each so-called problem is our greatest problem. A wise person welcomes difficulties because he knows they are beneficial and what he learns will be useful and even necessary to ultimately finding happiness and joy.

In Matthew 27:46, it states that while Jesus was on the cross, he said:
"Eli, Eli, lama sabachtani (My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?).
How miserable is saviour and how miserable are 'saved' ones.

Isaiah 43:11. I, even I, am Jehovah; and beside me there is no savior.
1 Timothy 2:3. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior;
Isaiah 43:3. For I am Jehovah thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Savior: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.

Think about it, if that is so, then what's the point to all the complex chemical reactions and neural networks inside the brain, and the fact that something as simple as an antidepressant can change one's mood? Is the soul not separate from the body, and since our thoughts and emotions are part of the soul they shouldn't be affected by earthly things such as chemicals and electrical signals in the brain?

Technically and historically pagans were anyone that was not christian. It was a deragotary term given to the heathens that didnt practice the same way the early church felt they should. There wasnt a group called the pagans that all worshipped the same set of ideas. Pagans from one country might have had totally diff beliefs and traditions from pagans in another country.
So when you say you practice the old traditions of the pagans or that you are a pagan, a pagan of what culture or country are you talking about?

Have you ever, I don't know how to put this, fallen in love with someone in a book? My language teacher was having a discussion about reading and such, and said she was actually attracted to the character in the book. Has this secret love ever come upon you?

My mom's side of the family got mostly greedy people. My relatives in the past have wronged my family so much when I was little. They worked together to make my mom cry, kicked my family out of their home, and much more. My mom's siblings all mistreated me and my siblings such as beat us when we were little, now they are afraid of me. Last year they brought nothing over and just ate. Some ate early and did not even bother to wait for my other relatives... When some people got here some food was all gone...

Besides they my grandma's house is much bigger yet they don't wanna have the feast there... My house is so much smaller, they just wanna mess up my family's home and not theirs'. I just want a Thanksgiving with only my family. Whatd o you think?

Thanks for reading

I am a senior at Howard University (only tier-one Historically Black University in the nation) studying Communication and Culture with a concentration in Speech and Applied Communication and my minor is English. The bulk of my coursework is in communication theory, public speaking and organizational communication. I will likely graduate with a cumulative 3.25 GPA and about a 3.8 GPA in my major coursework. I do have one "D" on my transcript from a horrible experience with a journalism professor who hated my guts and a couple of "C"s from oversleeping 8:00 am classes during freshman and sophomore year. As for extracurriculars, I have volunteered more than 500 hours during my college career (including teaching Sunday school at a local church and feeding homeless D.C. citizens four days per month), I am currently the president of two major campus organizations and I am able to get glowing letters of recommendation from three professors, dean of the chapel and two University Chaplains.

Let's start with the Busch Series. This series was suppose to be a stepping stone for the up-and coming new stars of NASCAR. Terry Bradshaw started a Busch team sponsored by Super Cuts and was complaining that his driver in the Busch series didn't stand a chance against the more experienced Cup drivers that are racing in the Busch series. Last year Harvick won the Championship in Busch and this year it's Carl Edwards. Bottom line - Ban the big boys from running in the Busch series so the new stars of tomorrow can show what they have to offer.
Now on to Cup - these open wheel drivers that are coming over to Cup I don't feel is good for the sport. These are the professional drivers from open wheel racing that are taking potencial rides away from the stars of tomorrow that should be coming out of the Busch Series.
No more open wheel drivers cross over to Cup and no more Cup drivers are allowed to have an entry in the Busch Series. Sorry Jack Rouch, it's one or the other.

My husband and I have been married for nearly fifteen years, and have two kids. The last few years our intimacy, physical and emotional, has taken a nosedive. For a while there were family issues which has caused us to focus on other demands, but as that situation has eased up, I am finding that we are continuing to drift apart. We hardly ever touch, rarely have sex, or exchange verbal affection. I know he would like sex more often, but one thing that bothers me is that he has a daily Internet porn habit and that partly turns me off.

But even more than this, is the fact that for a long time he has felt more like a brother to me than a romantic partner. I care for him deeply but the idea of being romantic with him feels weird. On the other hand, we rarely argue, and the relationship is low-conflict. We get along comfortably, are reasonably pleasant to each other, and that is pretty much it.

I want more but feel stuck... how to proceed?
