Points to Ponder

[nyyki]

If you always appear strong, no one will ever realize you need some help.

Just because you've only got a broken leg while the person next to you is bleeding out doesn't mean you don't also need medical attention.

There's always someone out there who is sick of your behavior. They're in the minority, and there are many more people who get a charge out of hearing from you.

Cynicism is a self fulfilling system.

Expectations decrease joy.

All emotions come from two core sources -- Love and Fear. When you feel a strong emotion, try to identify who its parent is.

"If you always appear strong, no one will ever realize you need some help."

... which means no one will realize it's time for them to strike at you in your weakened state.

See the entry about cynicism being a self fulfilling system.

Why are you still reading my journal? With your statements on CS's list, I would think that you have little use for me, and it somewhat surprises me that you and Tom P both continue to have me on your friends list.

1. Until we can see as God sees (re: 1 Samuel 16:7), you can't tell which persons are your enemies so it's better to assume each person is, isn't it?

2. On my part, mostly laziness. Can't speak for TomP.

I generally don't worry about enemies. They tend to destroy themselves before they get to the point where they are ready to deal with me. Besides, I tend to have very few.

On the second point, might want to attend to that, or apologize for your actions. I haven't decided whwheteher to ban you or not.
