I really just.don’t.get.it. Why do people get all up in arms over the way others choose to live their life? For the ways they are different or have different perspectives? Why waste so much time and energy researching, talking, and thinking about it all in such a negative light?
There is not one person on this planet I couldn’t learn something from~including those who are vehemently opposed and critical to my way of thinking. That is why I can read a book and glean from it and LIKE IT and still not be an advocate for everything the author has to say. I thought everyone did this? Don’t you rejoice in and take what you can use and just discard what you don’t agree with or doesn’t suit you?
MAN I’m glad I have sooo many different kinds of friends!!!! How happy I am that everyone is NOT just like me, or else I wouldn’t enjoy learning nearly as much! ~smile~ (((((HUGS))))) sandi~btw, the comments are OPEN for those who would like to give me an earful! LOL!
Aahhh. I’ve very often wondered the Exact Same Thing. od is in EVERYTHING which means EVERYTHING has some Good in it.
Soak in the Good and toss out the rest.
I love you girlie!
Hi there. Don’t worry, be happy. I am happy today because I managed to publish my first Toechew rhyme on my Scratch page
http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/aitan/736471
Now you can hear it for yourself. It’s a nursery song or rhyme. Our Teochew language is a sing song language. Hope you like it.
God bless and waiting for your reply to my email.
Lots of love,
aunty in waiting.
*God
That od was supposed to be God.
Dear friends of Sandi,
Hi. The good news is Sandi is in labour now. Please pray for a safe and easy birth for her and the baby. Please tell your friends to pray too. God is very good and we thank Him for this wonderful little girl.
You may wish to hear the gift song from the Lord for Sandi and Eric at http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/aitan/737501
Praise the Lord for He is so good.
God bless you,
Ai Boon
Hey girl, I’ve experienced the same thing about people not agreeing how I do things. I still have to deal with it. For instance, homeschooling. I feel that if people don’t agree with how I live my life, guess what, they don’t have to be part of my life. That way they don’t have to getthemselves upset about how I live my life.
Girl, just pray for them that be happy people, because if there all up tight about how you live, then that tells me they are not happy with theirs. Be you Sandi, and be who God wants you to be. Besides your husband and children, God is the only one you should try to please. And guess what He’s not a critic like some people. He loves you just the way you are. Peace girl, and know I love ya like a sister friend. You go girl, be the God kind of Sandi that He is pleased with, and you know He’s happy just the way you are. Why wouldn’t He be, He made you in His own image. So you know your good to go.
Congratulations on the baby, I’ve got to send you something. Be blessed and may the Lord bless the little one and prosper her future and protect her throughout her life.
Take care,
Harriett
Many different friends are like many different flowers. They are especially beautiful in a big mixed bouquet.
Hey girl, I know how you feel. It takes all kinds to make the world go ’round, and we have to take the bad along with the good in people. Those who chuck us out of their lives because they disagree with us are the ones who lose. We can all learn from each other! Love you, and grats on the girlie baby!

In general I agree, but it is a tough balance sometimes. One friend has just gotten engaged and fawns over her guy, but he only seems interested in fawning over himself and his racing bike. He posted a long video showing him sitting on his bike, posing for a mirror, strutting around town, and there was a two second clip in the middle of the engagement. I wrestle with “letting others live their lives” and “telling her to think about their *relationship*”.
