OP: I DO NOT CARE IF THIS DOES OFFEND SOMEONE… AND IF IT DOES, DELETE ME PLEASE :) THIS IS WHAT I BELIEVE…I AM SICK AND TIRED OF EVERY YEAR WHEN CHRISTMAS COMES AROUND; THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO TAKE CHRIST OUT OF CHRISTMAS BECAUSE IT MIGHT OFFEND SOMEONE…WELL, HOW ABOUT ALL OF THE CHRISTIANS LIKE ME?...WHAT ABOUT OFFENDING US BECAUSE YOU ARE TAKING OUR CHRIST OUT OF CHRISTMAS?...CHRIST IS CHRISTMAS!...IF YOU AREN'T CELEBRATING CHRIST THEN WHY ARE YOU CELEBRATING?...CHRISTMAS IS ABOUT THE BIRTH OF OUR SAVIOR!...CHRISTMAS IS ONE OF A FEW HOLIDAYS LEFT THAT CELEBRATE "MY" CHRIST!...LEAVE "MY" HOLIDAY ALONE!...AND TELL EVERYONE MERRY CHRISTMAS, NOT HAPPY HOLIDAYS!...RE-POST IF YOU’RE NOT ASHAMED
Person1: AMEN!!! I COULD NOT AGREE ANYMORE. AFTER ALL JESUS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON!!!!!
Person2: Amen but when something goes wrong hes the first they call on!! i believe in my savor and will say his name to anyone on anyday!!!
Person2: sry savior
Person3: If someone says "happy holidays," and the holiday you celebrate is Christmas, I don't think the person is lessening your relationship with your faith. I would want your entire month to be blessed across all days, but especially the day you celebrate.
Person4: "I like your Christ. I do not like your christians. They are so unlike your Christ." ~ Ghandi
Person4: But go ahead. keep screaming. i'm sure all you christians have so much to yell about, being the poor, downtrodden minorities constantly belittled and silenced in this country. Now, if only we had a form of government contract with the population that would somehow guarentee you the right to practice your form of spirit worship. Heck. lets call it something. constipation~no. consternation~no. oOOO how about constitution! yeah. that sounds right!
OP: It's funny you say constitution because that's what this country was founded on FAITH in GOD . Just look on every piece of our money thats been around long before we existed i believe it says In God We Trust not budah, not allah, the one true God. Thats why we used to be I think one of the top nations in the world now we owe everyone and it will get worse
Person5: Amen.
Person6: Amen brother
Person4: that was added in the 50's in a pathetic political attempt to combat a non-existed threat of communism. However, if you want to refer to our government's paperwork: In the treaty of Tripoli, article 11 states : "As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; etc." This was signed by Founding Father John Adams.
Person4: and no one wants to take your christmas away. they just want to be fair to all the other people who live and are citizens of this country. it's not YOUR country. it's OUR country. get used to it.
OP: If you don't like don't read it but apparently it struck a chord with you and got you thinking
Person7: Amen OP, This is why our country is going down hill fast! Years ago our country used to a Christain Nation and see what is happening when they turn away and I agree it is only going to get worse. I for one will not take Christ out of Christmas, I am proud to be a Christian!!!!!!!!! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Person4: truly, thinking is something i'm constantly doing. that's why i'm an atheist.
OP: Well I'm sorry to hear that but I have a question for you why do you feel that you're an atheist?
Person8: You go OP, keep it up!!! Yay for you!!! I thank GOD for people like you!! :-)

can't sleep
I am comfortable in just my boxer-briefs, and she needs two blankets… and the middle third of the bed… and my cat needs to make sure I can’t extend my legs with the promise of a clawed achilles.

Anonymous asked: Like. Hug. <3. :). I don't know anymore expressions that are fitting here, but I'll go hunt them down and spam the hell out of you with them over and over if that's what it takes to tear down and rip apart those walls of yours. Don't you dare use the term "pathetic" in any sort of reference to yourself again, not even in your own mind where no one else can hear....

This morning
Getting talked to like an annoying child this morning has pretty much killed any thankfulness in my heart. I guess when you see past the behavior of another in spite of things you asked and discussed, you shouldn’t expect the same in return. Entirely my mistake.

The Trick My Mind Plays
It starts with something small. It starts with an expectation. “That was witty of me. Someone ought to like that comment.” Then nothing happens. Then someone writes a status to which I reply only to learn I read the tone all wrong.
Seemingly inconsequential mishaps string together. My mind starts to wonder if there is a reason. Then comes the stake into my heart: the question...

Repression vs. Compression
I think repressing your feelings is a lot like writing them on aluminum foil and then wadding them up and compressing it into a little ball. Sure it takes less space, but it weighs just the same. As an added difficulty, have you ever tried opening a wad of aluminum?

Full-on Holiday Sap Mode
Here I sit halfway elated that I am feeling rested for the first time in a long time. I am excited about the upcoming holidays. At the same time, however, I am aware that this season brings many to a place much more intimate with their sadness and lonliness. Perhaps seeing childish happiness come so effortlessly to seemingly every person around, pounds a glass shard into the heart of the...
Closing of the Year
I will contradict myself in the next two sentences. The movie Toys is confusing and difficult to follow. The movie Toys gives me goosebumps and makes me cry like a baby.
