I'm so sorry to hear this.... It means I am going to have to bring out my "sunshine kit" and spray you with it... through out these next 6 months...I like the sunshine and the cool breeze and wading in water and walking in grass in my bare feet and the feel of sand between my toes. I like standing out beneath a blue sky dotted with fluffy white clouds as they sail along like stately ships on the water.
Winter feels like death to me.
I used to have a real problem with depression until a few years ago. I was finally able to throw it off of me. That's what it seemed like. I wrestled with it much of 2018. I haven't tried to end my life since 2000, though I came close a few years ago.I'm so sorry to hear this....

I don't really like the winter either since I live all alone... they say some depression gets activated or worse due to lack of sunshine... I have never liked the hot humid weather... this is why I moved up north... I would rather stay warm then try to stay cool... I can't handle the humidity at all.
But regarding my beloved lake... It sleeps over the winter months... which is why I get so excited when the movement of flow returns...
Not sure if I am going to suffer this winter with a bout of severe depression... It usually hits me every year for about 4 months... right after Christmas.... I am thinking my summer of Joy.... was also a summer of healing regarding depression...but time will have to tell the tale on that one...
I think some people connect with Worship as the BEST way to stay in and come 'into' His Presence. I am a Worshipper... I can't get the same feeling any other way... through music and words of certain music... it's like an immediate access to the Throne Room. I think this is a gift for those of us who suffer emotionally Truman... I miss corporate Worship... .It's the ONLY thing I miss about church. Not a very nice thing to say... but it's honest...I just need to stay vigilant and battle when I need to. Staying close to God in worship keeps me alert. I've got to keep the warrior in me active!
I work my own program, in other words, I have an ongoing relationship with God. I have coined a phrase that I try to remember:I think some people connect with Worship as the BEST way to stay in and come 'into' His Presence. I am a Worshipper...

I was never able to connect with people... and I believe that GOD is ok with that.... He knows me... and little by little... He is dealing with me...
Even the fact that I am back.... Where you and I left off in email.... there was no way I wanted to come back... and then I started to Worship... and here I am... God works that way with me ALL the time. I think this is why I can't stand people correcting each other... that's God's job... not some busy body who can't mind their own business.
Since I have come to the forums... I have been very confused as to what people are "calling" being Christian.... There is so much that I can't even begin to accept or stomach... Part of this is because of my TRUST issues... but another part is that so many people's assessment of what it meansI work my own program, in other words, I have an ongoing relationship with God. I have coined a phrase that I try to remember:
"I'd rather be slapped with the truth than kissed with a lie." Sigh. Only because it's for my own good.
So I try to see if there's anything to what someone says to me. But I think you mean something else. In this case, the simple phrase, "Mind your own business," is effective.
Ohhhh...okay.Since I have come to the forums... I have been very confused as to what people are "calling" being Christian.... There is so much that I can't even begin to accept or stomach...

to live a Christian life is so different than how I see it.
I live my life very simply... I have done street ministry... I have NEVER EVER preached at anyone... I have never told ANYONE that I do not know that they need Jesus.... this kind of Christianity is so ugly to me... and then you have the judgers and correctors... Drives me nuts...
This place is a broad cross-section of all kinds of beliefs and I can count on my fingers the amount of people I would actually and truly delight in breaking bread with... Most of them I wouldn't even cross the road to say hello to...
So.... much of my time here has been washed in huge disappointment about finding fellowship. That is just me being honest.
Just give me JESUS and GO AWAY.... LOL
Ok... What did I say wrong?? LOLOhhhh...okay.
