Do we listen to our surroundings

I had to delete the last post...only because I know the topic can be such disray-cause to much conflict. I know we all have our own views, our difference, our own beleifs. No matter what it is, it doesn't make any of us bad. No one is going to really be "right" or even "wrong"..simply because of our moral beliefs ...in polictic values. Whatever it maybe, whether we agree with it or not, we still need to respect each other. It does not make us less of a person because of a differences. It only makes us stronger.

I should be at UF right now with Tim. But he woke up ill earlier. His blood pressure had dropped, his face was pale, his heart rate was over 130 bpp. He was heaving-ready to vomit, I was not sure what was going on...or was he having an "anxiety" due to have a test he had today.
Forutnately, his Astromony instructor is still letting him take the exam today-just later. So Tim is resting right now. He should be at his Japaneese class. He needs to try to pick up the movie he has to write a reaction paper too.

The last few days- well I've been so tired. On Thursday evening, I attended the Mom's night out. We 8 moms met at a nice Mexican restaurant and had our Marquitas. On Sunday, CJ left with her DH to go on a cruise. I'm so jealous!!!! I would love to go on a cruise...again!!!

Yesterday, I slept most of the day. I don't know why I just don't have the energy to do anything. I needed to go mail some packeges and do my early voting...so it will have to wait till tommarrow after Tim's wheel chair clinic.

So today I read up on a few articles. One of the Orlando mom who now has murder charges on her-which she is claiming her daughter is still alive. If this is so true, please be honest and tell us where she is and stop hiding her. Otherwise, you and your family needs to admit what happened to that dear child. Know what I mean. I read another article on an 8 year old boy who accidentally shot himself with a weapon that is used in wars. He was at a gun show with his dad and brother and they were letting him try out the weapon. Excuse me?? He is 8 years old!!! Why is an eight (8) year trying out a war weapon? But the good news was that the High school that raised funds and collected cans of food for the food pantry...and how this one high school challenged another high school and Albertsons. That ...we call Angels of Mercy.

My dad's email to me from yesterday had me thinking. My father is a very stubborn man that is not only selective hearing but seems to forget all the facts. His accusations tells me that he does not have all the facts and most are twisted. It also tells me that if he cared enough, he would had known the truth about alot of things in my own life. One of them that he is the abuser and I was the victim. But no...he forgets that he is still the abuser ( mentally & emotionally). But for some reason, I didn't let his email get to me this time. Because I knew of his ignorance. The abusive side of him. So I stepped up and guarded my heart from him. I had to-to protect myself-to save my sanity.

God has ways to teach us about life...whatever it may be. He leads us to circumstances that we often don't always understand and often hard to accept. But in time, as we look back, we realize the lessons He has taught us. We just need to open our eyes, and learn to listen....to Him.

Well...I need to wake Tim and take him to UF and pray he will do well on this exam.

You didn't really need to delete your last post...this is your blog and where your opinions belong.

I am glad Tim's teachers are so understanding of his condition and allow him to make up his work as they do...what a blessing for him and you!!

Emotional strain will make you exhausted...rest as you can and try not to think too far ahead. Trust God and His wisdom...He will always see you though as His plan is for you....
