You will NEVER get what you want out of things or even people. There is a GOD shaped vacuum that only JESUS can fill. Call out to Him instead of the universe and He will satisfy. I know because we have taken similar paths and I would be dead and in hell now if it weren't for Him. I know rejection, I know hurt and I know depression , but He doesn't deliver me from these; He delivers me in these. He helps me to grow and get strong and He didn't save me because I was good enough either. He saved me because He died for me in spite of the dog I was and offered salvation to me full and free because He paid the price. He died for you too and it would be a shame if you didn't take advantage of it. The Bible says we are all sinners so even if we seem good we are not----, not when we are measured by His high standard. Come as you are with just one plea; but that thy BLOOD was shed for me and that Thou biddest me come to thee. O lamb of GOD I come, I come. Come only if you are ready to be changed. Only come and He will do the rest. A Christian is not good to be saved; they are good only because they have been saved. People will fail you but GOD never will. He will love you unconditionally and has promised NEVER to leave or forsake you. He doesn't just change your destination; He changes YOU.

I hated to see virtual lair go away too.<br /><br />I didn't know you had a blog lmao. I haven't contacted you since what, 2002 or so? Anyway, sent you an email because I want to buy something off of Heather Shade...answer back.

That'...Yep - takers (your "friends"). That's what I used to attract in romantic relationships. You nailed it - they get what they need, then walk right away. Last relationship I had, when the money ran out, so did she. That was back in 2003 and that's when I yanked myself off the relationship market. It gets lonely at times, but I'm definitely happier in the long run - what little I have in my wallet these days stays there & the games are LONG gone. LOL!<br /><br />Same here with "friends", too. They come and go - mostly go, especially when tough times come along.<br /><br />I can definitely understand why you've been staying away from blogging - it takes more courage than I can even imagine to put yourself out there. I'll tell you one thing, though - you've helped me a great deal over the years with the blogs. Lots of life lessons and a voice of understanding, especially from a fellow generation X'er (1971 - 41 for me will come in about 3 weeks) - not to mention your priceless sense of humor. ;)<br /><br />Thank goodness you & your BF are still together - I don't mind telling you that there's a few women from high school and my young adult life that I wish I had a second chance with. Main problem is, the ones I've managed re-connect with are either married, have children (who I wish I had more patience with, but just don't), both of the above or just are set entirely in their own lives - I guess what I'm saying is, try not to waste the 2nd chance you have with your BF by weighing it down with negative expectations. As a fellow pessimist, trust me, I know it's easier said than done - I guess I'm just coming from a place of realized mistakes & blown opportunities.<br /><br />Come September 20th, I'll be hopping a train for New Orleans from Maricopa, AZ (my mother & I are splitting expenses - probably the one family member that hasn't written me off, though even she used to let years go by without contact) for the 2nd time in as many years. And, like last year, one of the stops on the way just so happens to be El Paso - if the stop were longer than half an hour or so, I'd suggest a short meeting, if for nothing else than to buy a round & say thanks.<br /><br />But, in any case, just know that you've got a grateful listener here that'll be hanging out whenever you're ready to post again. :)<br /><br />If you'd like, give me a blast at Facebook - I've linked to it in my username here (name's Mark - "SwingMan1937" is actually my YouTube handle, but I use that in the Facebook URL for folks following me from YouTube).SwingMan1937http://www.facebook.com/SwingMan1937?ref=tn_tnmnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1705564970777798837.post-21433626739531196812012-09-05T12:26:13.756-06:002012-09-05T12:26:13.756-06:00I haven't split up with my guy.

Tho with the way things always go in my life, I don't ever feel secure or that anything is gonna last- the hard-earned pessimist in me- so I always fear that a good thing will eventually end for me.<br /><br />My family has abandoned me completely. And the friends that come in & out of my life never stay. It's like they come, get what they need from me, and then they just leave me by the wayside without a second glance.<br /><br />It's fucking hard. I hate being alone but I guess it's my lot in life.<br /><br />I don't post that much here anymore because I feel like I'd end up posting too much angst and everyone would get sick of hearing it. <br /><br />Thanks for your comment... always good to know that somebody is listening....<br />Shadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10310969698323696901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1705564970777798837.post-36880901160407416442012-09-01T02:21:00.633-06:002012-09-01T02:21:00.633-06:00I gather you & your sweetheart from 1994 have ...I gather you & your sweetheart from 1994 have split? If so, shake hands with a fellow ostracized victim of unlucky love.<br /><br />Took myself off the market because of attracting a long string of takers who preyed on my kindness& openness as a weakness.<br /><br />I've also been screwed over by just about every immediate family member - what's left when you can't trust family?<br /><br />I've pretty much had to depend on myself and shut my emotions in a shell of bitterness for the most part - not a seething bitterness, but more like a leary type of bitterness.<br /><br />I guess the best advice I can give out with is not to bend & compromise - it may not help find you romance, but it will earn you (like it has for me) some respect.<br /><br />Been reading your blogs for the better part of the past 6 years and, emotionally, I feel like you & I have traveled similar paths. Just stay true to yourself, be confident in that and know that, if nothing else, due to my presence, you're not alone. :)SwingMan1937http://www.facebook.com/SwingMan1937?ref=tn_tnmnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1705564970777798837.post-47685876260083498852012-02-06T10:13:48.986-07:002012-02-06T10:13:48.986-07:00please respond;; can you give the address of that ...please respond;; can you give the address of that abandonded pool, or as close to it as possible?
