My mother was abused and she had a horrible life. She recently found a game called Second Life. But that's just it; it's not her second life, it's become her first life. She has negglected everything, including her personal hygene. I lived with her, and being a young kid, I suffered from this too. She gave up on everything to the point where I was taken to a foster home. She was depressed, and she is masking her pain. In this game, she is perfect. Blonde, big busted, rich, and 23 again. She gets mad when we call it a game, she says, " It's not a game, they're real people. In her eyes, she doesn't have a peoblem, this game allowed her to be perfect, and Christian. No real problems. I can understand why she would feel like that, but It makes me feel like I'm not wanted because she doesn't care for me. She can never get her nose out of the screen long enough to even come and watch me get baptised. How can she get help? Is there anything I can do ? PLease help- I want my mommy back.

This guy & I(we're like friends w/benefits..I guess would be our "title")usually talk everyday. We've known each other about 2 mos. He said before he isn't trying to look for a serious relationship, but hopefully we could lead up to more. Anyway, I try to not be a clingy girl. So 1 day passed(1) that we didn't talk. He called me Thurs. & then Fri. we didn't talk. Saturday he called me & one of the first things he asked was "why haven't you called me?" I told him I didn't think he had his phone b/c he was supposed to get it fixed b/c he can't get text msgs. He was like "I still have my phone, why haven't you called me?" He wasn't rude...he was just asking. It made me feel like he missed me.(aww) But it also made me wonder why he was sweating the fact we didn't talk for 1 day when he doesn't want serious. Am I doing right by not being clingy & letting him do most of the calling & initiating, etc...since he doesn't want serious? Or should I try & pursue him more than I have?

I was trying to learn Biblical Greek from a book I bought a Christian book store and I was talking to my pastor about it and he showed me a book that was made 100 years ago that teaches you New Testament Greek and it is good. I read over 150 pages of the book I bought and never saw where there were 8 basic noun forms and the classifications/paradigms of verbs. So I threw that book away and I am sticking with the 100 year old book.

The pastor at our church is teaching Biblical Hebrew to us and we are progressing very well cause he is an excellent teacher. I can chart all forms of a strong verb both singular and plural in the perfect state. Yahoo!!!!! Learning the original meanings of words has helped me understand the Bible more clearly. For example, Church is taken from the Greek "Ekklesia" which is a direvitave of "Ek" (out from) and "Kalleo" (to call). Better translated as "Called out"

How about you? What is your knowledge of Greek or Hebrew and how has it helped you?

I have a good friend that I like very much but I have a few problems that I don't know how to approach her about. She lives right next to me and finds excuses to come over. Sometimes when I tell her I can't hang out she comes over anyway and stays for hours with my roommates untill I come home. I am pretty sure it is because she is insecure but I am not sure how to talk to her about it. One thing that just recently started to happen is she will invite me to go somewhere and then decide not to go after I have gotten ready and then come over to my house instead.She knows when Im home because she lives so close so I can't lie to try and get space...Please help lol

I don't want to know that if many people had answered the questions about which one of the rivalries is best such as Red Sox-Yankees or Dodgers vs Giants.

I just want the people to answer this question about if he/she agree or disagree that Red Sox-Yankees rivalry is #1 in the leauge. I need to see more explains and informations from people when they have to answer the question.

Have you ever read one of those books where it’s like there is a boy in a room, and it’s separate from you. You are an onlooker, an observer. You can almost peer through the walls. You can almost see him through this wall that does not exist, except it exists in the book. What if something happens simultaneously at once where you are both the boy and the onlooker? The boy he is absorb in his action. He is absorbed within himself. He is absorbed in the moment. I am the boy, and I am the onlooker. It is weird, but it feels like there is some kind of detachment from myself. I am in the moment of the moment, but at the same time it’s almost as if I am outside looking in at myself—but I can’t really see myself. It is such that I am there, but yet I am elsewhere. I have so much to say, so many questions to ask—and at the same time nothing. Everything is a blank. I mean what is there to say, ask really? All there is is curious wonder. There are no questions, because the answer to most questions is it is what it is. I find that questions such as what is ego, and what is true happiness are questions to which there is no one answer—but yet we sit there and ask them anyways. For what? What purpose do such questions serve? Are these not questions that one can answer for oneself?

All of this is so strange and unfamiliar, and I don’t even know who to talk to. I want to talk to someone, but I feel that my thoughts have traveled a realm where they might have become inexpressible. There is more than just this detachment. There has been something that feels like a muted heart as if I am only ruled by my mind. My feelings are not devoid, but they are nonsensical. I am aware of their existence, because I can feel them form on my face. My mind is aware of them--but not my heart. How am I functioning when I feel so unfunctional you know? At moments weariness comes over, because I can’t grasp some unknown, and I cannot find myself within myself. I have so much to say, but yet there is nothing to say you know. I don’t know if curious wonder is the right word for what I am experiencing, but I don’t know what else.

I notice how the wind influences one particular branch on the tree, how in its subtle movements the branch is pulling itself towards the wind but yet it is withdrawing, pulling itself away from the wind so that it appears to be betwixt within its own occurrence. I am that branch. I am heaving steadily forward (towards the direction of the wind), but yet held in place by the undivided tree.


Perhaps, someone can IM me if you think you can even begin to talk to me? For all I know this can be the most convoluted question you ever encountered. I wish that people would be honest and say what their heart truly means. So honestly tell me what you take of this question and what you take of me, and not just pass it aside just because it is easier to do so.
