(no subject)
i am no longer in the habit of cooking only for myself anymore. this means that i am ready for either
a) catering
b) line cooking
c) lots of babies
im actually hoping against all three.
i just finished reading a book on how to move past adultery in your marriage. there was a chapter on forgiveness that i found really interesting. in summary, forgiveness needs to come after a process. it cant be rushed or faked, or else the one doling it out wont actually get closure. the one needing it needs to have stopped the offending behavior, show remorse, and show signs of change. otherwise, the forgiver will just be continually forgiving, on a daily basis, and never actually healing. this would sorta explain my sentiments towards the men in my life [that im related to]... but how does forgiveness in Christ work into that, and forgiving serial rapists/murders? is forgiveness actually necessary for healing?
also musing: how does confession work? what are the pros and cons?
i briefly flirted with thinking about lent, but no...
no progress on the working front. im so close to snapping at someone about the materialism. and by that, i mean my boss who is pushing me to spend lots of money that i dont want to spend (and currently, dont even have). and every time i object, she just ignores me... not such a fan of that.
that said, i look awesome in my black blazer. it even makes my butt look good!
super excited about visitors!! :D i plan on eating and drinking a lot. it shall be good. and lots of hugs. i like hugs. except from guys with really strong cologne, cause then i smell like that, and thats sorta weird.
