I am an adult who was born to a mother who has never been a moral person. She has done some truly vile things to me and others over the years and continues to do so even at the age 70. I am having a difficult time understanding how I am supposed to honor her when her belief system is so opposite of what I believe to be honorable; when her actions are so mean spirited and confrontational and always have been. My value to her is a financial one only. When she no longer has a crisis, then I am not of any use to her and she treats me badly. I can not respect her because she is not someone to respect. Sad but true. Alcoholism and mental disease are only the tip of the iceberg. Her sickness goes much much deeper, from abuse to actually trying to leave me with a known pedifile at the age of 12. She is toxic. But now she has developed signs of Alzheimers and needs someone to care for her well being. She is too mean to put in a nursing home and not that gone yet. How do I honor this woman?

I try, I fail; I tray again, I fail again,...

I have no motivation, so I close my door....

Suddenly I saw someone grows so high, but I remain the same.

I lost my ambition to higher level, for long time, I have no steady life and income. I lost direction who I am, and what I do.

I don't think I make this happen. I believe I can control my life, but outside world do control me, I can't avoid it.

I can't blame these people, this society, I can't change past, but can I make future better?

If I can go higher level, I can see further, my vision, my world will change, life will become exciting, isn't it?

On here, in life, or both. How do you put up with it. I can't stand a rude person, but I don't believe in hurting people (not including self-defense). So what do you do?

A man was being tailgated by a stressed out woman on a busy boulevard. Suddenly, the light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.

The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration as she missed her chance to get through the intersection, dropping her cell phone and makeup. As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her to exit her car with her hands up. He took her to the police station where she was searched, finger printed, photographed, and placed in a holding cell.

After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects. He said, 'I'm very sorry for this mistake.

I should break into a mansion, live in the guy's home with my family, and if he tries to complain about it, he is racist because I am simply trying to do what is best for my family. Our house sucked, his is much nicer, I cut his grass, so he can't tell me to leave. I didn't break any laws, other than breaking into his house.

As a matter of fact, this guy has to pay for my kids to go to school and he better pay for my medical expenses. After all, he can afford it. I didn't break any laws, I cut his grass, and he is mad at me for living in his home because it is nicer than mine, he must just hate my people is all it is. I am going to make his local cops make him keep me living here, because I shouldn't have to go back to my home when his is nicer.

Is this pretty much what you believe in if you don't have a problem with ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION?

I'm talking about people who say, "God will never put more on you than you can bear." That is NOT in the Bible. Why do people think this is true. Do you think Hannah was able to bear being barren until God opened her womb? Do you think Samson could bear his death as it was happening? False teaching in the church has many people running in the other direction. Don't pastors and ministers see this?

1"For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire men to work in his vineyard. 2He agreed to pay them a denarius for the day and sent them into his vineyard.
3"About the third hour he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing. 4He told them, 'You also go and work in my vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right.' 5So they went.

"He went out again about the sixth hour and the ninth hour and did the same thing. 6About the eleventh hour he went out and found still others standing around. He asked them, 'Why have you been standing here all day long doing nothing?'

7" 'Because no one has hired us,' they answered.
"He said to them, 'You also go and work in my vineyard.'

8"When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, 'Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last ones hired and going on to the first.'

9"The workers who were hired about the eleventh hour came and each received a denarius. 10So when those came who were hired first, they expected to receive more. But each one of them also received a denarius. 11When they received it, they began to grumble against the landowner. 12'These men who were hired last worked only one hour,' they said, 'and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the work and the heat of the day.'

13"But he answered one of them, 'Friend, I am not being unfair to you. Didn't you agree to work for a denarius? 14Take your pay and go. I want to give the man who was hired last the same as I gave you. 15Don't I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?'

16"So the last will be first, and the first will be last."
