Re: What to Do When People Laugh at You

Well, I can't stand that they are like that! now I want to beat them up for just being mean! Still, don't you see that they are the ones caught in their own story? They have their little rules about what is cool and what is immature and they have each other to bolster their story. They have their own fears anyway.

You don't have to buy in.

You can choose to Love like Jesus did. He was always in control because love is so much greater than other people's fear or hate. So put your head up high, smile big and tell yourself, "Greater is the love in me than whatever is going on in them!"

You've got this. I believe in you!

There are two girls at my school who laugh at me because I don't have a phone and I talk about techonology. It might sound stupid, but it does hurt my feelings. Also, the think I am immature so whenever I am having fun with my fronds, they laugh at me.
They think they are so grown up even though we are only in year seven.

You are right Gina, "You can rise above any words."

Criticism is an integral part of success. It is important to accept criticism, learn from it or let it go.

I just wrote what i can say about criticism. Hope some agree with me.

I still need to 'relieve' myself of the anger i have before attempting the above process. The anger doesn't allow me to move forward.... perhaps the anger is too severe or the words were too hurtful ?

Beautiful sharing of your journey from thinking you were passionately pursuing justice…and realizing a thirst for vengeance was silently raging. Wise Gina.
There are natural consequences to Lance’s choices and actions. There are natural consequences when we or our children make bad choices. This quote is not eschewing accountability and consequences.
What I take from Martin Luther King Jr.’s quote – and from my mentor in “Walking with Justice” who started this conversation – is that we must always challenge ourselves to ask the question that you asked about your truest motivation. Am I coming from love?
We must look inside and readjust until we can truly and completely say that we are coming from love. Then and only then will the process of correcting others’ actions that stand against love hold a possibility of rendering justice.

Hey Russell, thanks for stopping by!

That's good, Kathryn. I think sometimes we do stand for truth and that means opening our mouths and taking action. Perhaps we do so motivated by love and a release from the need to control the outcome.

If the line is drawn at seeking justice personally, I agree with letting God deal with it. When the cheater/liar/bully/thief is and will continue to prey on others, then exposing them and restraining them is the right thing to do. Is it appreciated? No. Will they target you personally and create damage to your reputation? Often. Would I rather be someone who says "it didn't hurt me", "they seem sorry", "it's not worth the risk" - not so far.

Re: Sexless Marriage Solutions- Feel Great About Your Self

wiggens — Fri, 18 Jan 2013 00:01:22 -0000

I haven't felt good about myself in about 45 years. Thats when we were married and on our wedding night sex,intimacy,love lived and died. We had sex onceand that was it. He told me the next day that was the worst night he ever had. He felt dirty by having sex, it was digusting, meaningless, pointless, smelly, messy, was a total waste of time and way to much work for so little. Also it would never happen again. He then moved down to the basementand started working the midnight shift. He didn't want to be near me, I was treated like an apartment deweller. He was cold and heartless. I cryed screamed for no use he just stared at me in disgust turned around and went down stairs. We haven't talked in years other thatn primitive grunt and groans. iI've learned to live with this, and in my mid 60s and don't care about him and myself. I hate all men there all B**%$#ds. I have my anti-depressants and my shrink and thats all I care about.

Oh that's awful about the bad motion sickness. I get sick reading in a car, but not a plane, so I don't know if I'm a good judge. Can you try reading on a treadmill at the gym by just holding a book and see how you do? You might do better using your laptop on a spin bike like my husband does, or even some surface over a recombent bike. The idea is to just move a little.

Lisa - did you try the treadmill desk? I understand your level of motion sickness. People who don't share it, cannot understand what it's like - much like the migraines.

Re: How to Lose Twenty Pounds On Twitter and Facebook

Sarah at CyberCraft Robots — Mon, 19 Nov 2012 12:18:18 -0000

I see by google search that someone has asked the "motion sickness" question, but I need to ask it differently. If you don't get bad motion sickness, you cannot understand what it is like.
I get really sick if I read in a car or a plane (in a plane, one does not see the peripheral movement. Much motion sickness is caused by ones ears and eyes don't agree. The balance mechanism in teh ears says "I'm moving" and their eyes say "I'm Not moving" I'd really like to hear from someone with a similar level of motion sickness who has tried a treadmill desk. I really want to do this, but it's a big investment if I cannot use it.

Well, I don't sell it or anything, but I still think it felt great. I've never had so few headaches, and so much energy.
