First, NO need to apologize, dear Skalls (peace to you!); I did not take offense at anything you stated. I did and DO, however, hear and see your... frustration. Always have. Not sure why you are still "fighting," though, as that doesn't seem to be very productive (for anyone!).

I also understand how, given the apparent futility of so much, it might be comforting, yes, to reconcile oneself to not knowing. It's just... well, EASIER... than trying to figure things out. I TOTALLY get that. As I stated, though, one does not have to figure ANYTHING out... but only ask. Which I have found to be even EASIER... than giving up on trying to figure things out.

A child can rack his/her brain and rack his/her brain... and try to figure out, say, how a house is built. Or, that child can simply ask his parent... who just happens to be a housebuilder (or the apprentice of a housebuilder).

See? Wink!

Please accept my apologies in this engagement.


No apology necessary, dear one. Not with me. Again, I GET your frustration... and my heart breaks for you that you are not yet able to find a way... or better yet, THE Way... so as to overcome it.

Peace to you... sincerely... dear, dear Skally!

Your servant and a slave of Christ,

Shellamar

"Always have"

That opinion is certainly yours to cherish Shelby. Yet, that is all that it is. This much, I DO know.

What the... Opinion?? So you're saying that your frustration is NOT apparent, dear Skalls (peace!)? Interesting. May I ask: have/do you read your own posts? If that is what you're saying, though, well, then, what can I say, 'cept I musta be peerin' down a different "rabbit hole" than you. Happens.

Peace... and do enjoy your lunch (alfredo anything sounds good)!

Your servant and a slave of Christ,

Shelby,

Engaging you such as this seems to be my mistake at this point. I accept that as my responsibility. This kind of engagement is not what I wish to continue any longer. It all only ends up in textual misrepresentations and misunderstandings. Much of what I try to get across in text, would never take as long as it does if, let's say, we were face to face, offline. Not in the virtual world. It is just so easy to misread what is textually put down. It is mainly the reason I rarely read all or understand most of what you write textually, in the virtual world, as opposed to how we would actually engage ourselves in the real world. In the VWorld, we are miles apart. If we were engaged in the real world, half of what we put in text in this Vworld, would absolutely be omitted. Of no real merit.

Therefore, I cease and desist mySELF from this type of engagement with you, in order of keeping some of what is left of my integrity, intact.

If it's what you wish, then I think you've made a very good decision for yourself, dear Skalls (peace!)... and I hope you're able to stick to it, for your sake (if it's truly what you wish). If not... you know where to find me.

Again, peace to you!

Your servant and a slave of Christ,

Shellamar

I would say " Humans are inherently evil"......

And that there are a few that have cultivated or are cultivating the fruitage of kindness in their daily lives.

Thank goodness we have CHRIST as our perfect example to look to. Because us hmans are truly a lost species without him.

Sorry, just read a lot of negative world news today.

Love y'all
Justmom
