Yet some selfishness is a tool which drives us to build more confidence in what we do. So, don’t beat yourself up too much. In fact, maybe if you reread your own words, you might be able to glean a different message from it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19105683.post-1148690436868150252006-05-26T20:40:00.000-04:002006-05-26T20:40:00.000-04:00You know, I really think you should write a book. ...You know, I really think you should write a book.

Honestly, I really can't put my finger on the "force" behind what I say. Mostly, I'm just an overly opinionated person. But -- sometimes -- the difficult and hurtful places in my life provide a much needed spark for what I have to say. It gets particularly bad for me when the people closest to me make it seem like I'M the one at fault for having my hurtful feelings.<BR/><BR/>When I feel like the world's against me, I try to cling to God. Doing so helps me to see things from an angle that ultimately gives me the serenity to analyze my situations...hence, my blog. Besides that, I really love the fact that there are people out there (albeit, cybernetic) who can see me, see what I have to say, and not vilify me for it. It's refreshing.<BR/><BR/>The "militant" stuff is just a product of me suffering from the "Angry Black Male" syndrome.

Even though I don't always respond to what you have to say, I'm frequently touched by your words. They're a breath of fresh air!<BR/> <BR/>From where I stand, your understanding of what it means to be a Christian is expressed in everything you put down (with some exceptions, I guess, where you get all militant! :) )<BR/><BR/>Keep on sharing Christ with the world!<BR/><BR/>J.

Today is no exception. <BR/><BR/>You're sooooo correct on this one. We DO act out of benevolence for other people so that we can feel better about ourselves. I can't begin to tell you how often I've felt like somebody's "owed" me something because of my good deeds. This attitude is a clear indication that I was being selfish too.<BR/><BR/>Way to drive it home, my friend!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19105683.post-1148583901437690422006-05-25T15:05:00.000-04:002006-05-25T15:05:00.000-04:00Hey Greeneyed handsome man ,I fully believe in do ...Hey Greeneyed handsome man ,<BR/><BR/>I fully believe in do onto others as you would want them to do onto you , but I also believe that we should do "good" for nothing in return , Karma has a way of leveling things out and if it doesnt , one should take away the sadisfaction of doing something for someone just to help them with no earthly or heavenly reward .<BR/>We as humans should help those in need as well as lightening someones load without hesitation, without trying to add up BROWNIE points for our good behavior.<BR/>Just being a good person should lead us into this , help thy neighbour etc. <BR/><BR/>He who giveth freely ,giveth the best gift of all :)<BR/><BR/><BR/>J/K<BR/> Hope you didnt have to stay in after school today heheheheh could not resist LOL<BR/>GreeneyesGreeneyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02946141688595133954noreply@blogger.com
