I HAD ANOTHER HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE ON SAT. REMEMBER I SAID THAT THE WEEK WOULDN'T BE RIGHT WITHOUT A FEW BAD DAYS? WELL..I AM KICKING MYSELF FOR SAYING THAT NOW! WITHOUT TOO MANY DETAILS; SOME PEOPLE IN MY TOWN THINK I AM A THIEF AND THEY BELIEVE THAT THEY HAVE REASON TO BELIEVE THIS. I KNOW WHAT I DID & THEY AREN'T GOING TO MAKE ME FEEL ASHAMED OR LIKE A VICTIM THIS TIME: I AM STRONGER THAN THAT! I AM SUPPOSED TO HAVE STOLEN STUFF FROM OUR LOCAL RUMMAGE SALE WHICH I DID NOT! SOME PEOPLE JUST DON'T HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN ACCUSE ME OF STEALING. ANYWAY, THE PLACE TAKES DONATIONS & I AM ONE OF THE PEOPLE WHO GIVES DONATIONS THERE. LONG STORY: BUT THEY TAKE MONETARY DONATIONS. THEY SAID I DIDN'T PAY THE STUPID QUARTER OR WHATEVER THEY THINK THAT I AM SUPPOSED TO PAY FOR NOTHING. NOW I AM GETTING ANGRY. I HAVE TO PRAY FOR THOSE PEOPLE DOWN THERE & LET GO & LET GOD DO FOR THEM WHATEVER THEY NEED. PRAY FOR ME PLEASE SO I CAN GET OVER THE HURT. HUMILIATION , ETC. I REALLY NEED IT RIGHT NOW. GOD BLESS. I WILL KEEP TRYING TO HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS BECAUSE IT IS STILL THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR! I GIVE A HOOT!
TLC: THANKS FOR YOU INPUT; OTHER PEOPLE WHO I HAVE TALKED TO TELL ME TO LET IT GO & LET GOD & PRAYED FOR ME, ETC. I AM COMING TO GRIPS WITH THE FACT THAT I AM POWERLESS OVER THE WOMEN WHO JUST LIKE TO MAKE TROUBLE FOR ME--THAT IS HOW I SEE IT! HOPEFULLY NEXT TIME I SEE THEM I CAN JUST SMILE & LEAVE IT AT THAT! GOD BLESS & MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU! NOW I REALLY GIVE A HOOT!
God!! what an opportunity (for me) to turn a quarter into a quarter of a million bucks!! I use to be able to build on resentments until I thought they belonged in the history books of the nation. Grrrrr!! A quarter? Your serenity is priceless. I agree...Let the go...Let God have them all and do the next right thing with a smile on your heart.
