My hubby has a dysfunctional family of origin and holidays were always awkward and uncomfy for all. Plus, his mom was always bossing everyone around during the holidays, so he kind of takes a back seat to plans and events, and his idea of a holiday is plopping himself in front of the tv.

I love celebrating the holidays and would like my family to have fun xmas traditions and celebrations. I can't figure out how to get my hubby to join in. I've asked him what he'd like to do for the holidays, or if there are any traditions he'd like to implement, and he just shrugs his shoulders and says he can't think of anything.
I'm thinking it's because he associates holiday celebrations as something to avoid. How can I encourage him to get involved in the holiday cheer?

The ever-presence of God is all around us, yet we do not always see Him.

When our egos do sense His presence, His Truth is felt as anxiety, fear and guilt, a reality we are too ashamed to face.
Escaping, we reach for the security of our culture-hypnotics; friends, pleasure, church, music, drug, drink.

What are we really doing when we are escaping like this ?

Are we not escaping from the ever-presence informing reality, the Truth who is trying to set you free?

You see, our vanity does not allow us to be still and know this truth, for then we would become aware of the folly of pride, of what failures we have become at the hands of our lovers, leaders and problem-solvers.

Do you think its time to wake up from your illusion to Reality, now?

What say you all?

I am writing a story and believe that I have come up with a good plot line. However, I am not sure if my characters actions are illegal or just immoral. I thought of calling a lawyer, but I would not be able to pay for a consultation. What other sources are there?

I dated my wife for about 10 years before we got married during that time we broke up numerous times for mostly stupid reasons nothing like cheating. I find my wife neurotic self conscious and depressed which I thought would change with marriage well it has not. Ive lost sexual interest and attraction and the passion to her I used to feel when dating I know your supposed to be there for your other but I dont want to anyomore I want to move on and change a few things about myself and then try and find someone who is happy and makes me happy someone that can be my best friend and not just my wife or girlfriend. I do not feel close anymore nor do i enjoy spending time with her we have only been married a year and a half and I think these feelings shouldnt be an issue this early in our marriage. Am I wrong to want a divorce? Will counseling last? or is it just a temporary fix? someone help confused and feeling guilty for feeling this way

I could care less if players used steroids or not. All I care about is that I get to watch a good game of baseball. Does it really matter if players were using steroids WHEN IT WASN'T BANNED? I don't think it does and that all records during the steroid era should be legitimate because what the players were doing at that time was LEGAL.
