Annoyed...


It's upsetting to watch friends on the cusp of terrible, potentially life-destroying decisions that they are considering largely because of the opinions of a crazy person (who won't live forever anyway). Kowtowing to such insane whims is just nuts. It doesn't matter if one's heart is in the right place or not -- it's irrational to make any more disastrous offerings on the altar of someone else's good intentions.

That is all.

AMEN!!! I think I am going to have to quit talking about it, for my health. People are insane and I feel the need to distance myself from the situation. Seriously, it makes me want to scream. I have screamed. I can feel my blood pressure rising. Okay, I can't talk about it anymore.

Seriously, what is wrong with people?

Wow, you guys have some news that you are not sharing.

AND HOW! Unfortunately (maybe fortunately?) I can't say anything more for the time being. Maybe in few months...

No, years. Years.

I have to say that I have two siblings who followed the bad voice, the bad fruit, whatever you want to call it and the pain was intense. I cried for months and was so angry. Then I realized that I wanted to force them to choose the right. I was acting like Satan and his plan. I had to adapt and love them anyways. Giving them their agency, recgonizing that the Savior still loves them and maybe this is the path they have to travel. Years, it has taken years to adjust. that darn book Emma the Mormon enigma started it all.

Oh and praying for Brandon and Ashley. I have been following them closely.

Oh, well, this is nothing like that. Nothing may end up happening anyway. We'll just all have to wait and see. Anyway, thank you for your prayers!

(As it happens, I quite liked Mormon Enigma -- used it for a paper I wrote once. Everyone reacts differently I suppose.)
