Some times the Lord doesn't answer our prayers, then later we see why, in His wisdom the unanswered prayer was the best path for resolution. In this case I'm just guessing, but I hope I hit the mark without causing offense.

Release your anger and walk away for now. If there is truely something there, it will come back.

Very well put. Sometimes the best thing to do is just let it go and put it behind you. One can forgive someone for having wronged you without allowing them to continue doing so, and while still realising that they were wrong.

"Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster

The best thing to do with anger is to let it go, whether the other person does or not.

I know... That is a theme that runs within Star Wars. One of the games, Jedi Academy, has a decision point between Light Side and Dark Side. If you chose Light, then on another level you have help from other Light allies that you desperatly need (unless you're just really good at the game). If you chose Dark, not only are the Light side people against you now, so are all of the Dark side people.

Brian---we've had some private discussions before and while I do not always agree with your specific view, I respect your right to have it.

The anger isn't worth it brother...just slide it off your shoulder and move on. I know, with the other issues you've mentioned, this is simply not needed in your life.

Blessings and be well Brian

My best wishes, whatever the problem is.

The problem is believing in someone who apparently never believed in me.

Sounds like we have a similar problem... Sorry to hear that the problem is not unique; as the problem SUCKS!!! 8-(

God Bless, and good luck. We both need it.


Sincerely,

That's a problem, because I don't want any wrong to happen to them because of me or anything else. I'm really not a vengeful person deep down. I'm a very caring person, to a fault.

They were wrong. I don't need someone to wrong them to make me feel better. No matter how wrong they have been, they still deserve to be treated good, fairly, and with honesty and compassion. Do they have faults? You betcha! Tendencies of irrational behavior and major mistrust issues. Mistrust has been a common theme for the entire time I have known them.

I know. I asked for trust, but it was not given.

Let me ask for something else...

Please pray for her. Please pray that God watches over her, protects her, and that she may have many happy days in her life. I don't want her to hurt. I don't want her to be sad. I know it is all up to God's will, but I really believe that she is a good person, deserving of a rich and wonderful life. I wanted to be there with her, but it seems that is not possible.

So I ask, God, please take care of her.

You are a Good Person - and that is Quite Righteous of You to say - i am sure

He will take care of her . . .

That is most kind and wise of you, and may He grant your petition in His wisdom. May He grant you the peace that you seek for the both of you.

That is my prayer to you.

I don't pray but I do believe that when we have the best hopes and wishes for others the circle is complete.

We lift each other.

In this I know you will lift both yourself Brian and the ones you love and care for.

Sometimes all we can do is be open to the possibilities and stay true to the best of ourselves.

Whatever the situation. I offer my hope to you.

Please accept a prayer from me Brian.

I add you and your request into my prayers tonight, Brian.

I know, God listens and does what He thinks is best for us even when it means that we have to be proved first. Your posts here show that your heart is righteous: someone who seeks help for a person who hurt him just before, instead of seeking vengeance, is righteous in my understanding.

Keep your head up, and don't lose your faith. I went through a lot of bad things, and I almost broke at the last challenges - but I was helped and got over them. And so will you. I know that He is helping when you need it most - sometimes otherwise than expected.

Thanks. I'm really very concerned about her, and although I may never speak to her again, I know she's seen enough hardship already. I wanted to help aleviate that hardship, not add to it. :( She really is a good person. She has made mistakes, but so have we all.

Errr...

People are "people"? And they should be true to themselves?

Good luck to both of you,

in whichever ways,


Best wishes,
Martin

The Big Wheel keeps on turning, Brian; what was downside,
becomes upside.

Never lose optimism- even if only that the sun will rise tomorrow,
because you gain a richer perspective with time.

My best wishes to you, my fellow Human

I'm going to get on a soapbox now...and this isn't about you at all greg. I have no issues with you...

You know, I sit back and watch the pettiness that goes on with some of the fights here. All of the wrongs that have been done, has any of it made it "right" again for anyone to just commit more wrongs against the person who you felt wronged you? Those in positions of power, is it possible that you misunderstood? Those of you not in positions of power, is it possible that you push to far?

The person I'm upset about feels I wronged them. In response, they have decided that they are going to wrong me. The temptation for me to retaliate is very strong, particularly when there never was anything for them to be mad about in the first place, as it was all in their head.

Why can't people forgive? Why do people hurt others, especially the people that really genuinely care about them? Why do we all take each other for granted so often?

Brian I have made MANY people mad in my life, I have always walked away, well almost always, and found that if I dwell on their problem with me, they are winning. If I say NO I will not let whatever they do bother me, then they cannot win. If they, no WHEN they realize that they are not winning, they will either quit or try harder. Either way YOU are then winning! Sometimes we win by walking away and forgetting about them and their petty ways.
I had a girlfiend once, yea I know I had a girlfirend!!!, anyway she dumped me over a guy that we both new. It was not that she liked him or anything, he said something to her about me that was untrue, and he knew it was untrue when he said it. I asked him about it, he got angry, I walked away and he got REALLY, REALLY angry! He was in a position to do damage to my career, he was soooo angry that it showed when he tried. He ended up losing much more that I did. The girlfriend, she moved on and I do not miss her! I found another, then my wife of 24 years! Life is better now than it ever was with her and that guy in it.
