Getting to know a little more about the strange cougar in my reflection...

We all change over time, even parts of ourselves and our perception or reality that we thought indelible. Myself, my very nature, is variable, as I’ve learned to my pain, learned to such pain that I’ve been searching for years for the unchangeable, for the firm and reliable. For who I am.

*giggles and hugs* Nah, just hearing from yah means a lot to me, even if you don't have the answers to life, the universe, and everything else. :-3 I'm very grateful for my furry, fuzzy (in spirit if not form) friends! :-3

My life verse might point you to something:

Clear your head.

Read II Cor 12:7-10.

Then, let it simmer for a while on your head, before you get up and do anything else.

It literally saved my life; at a time when I despised who I was and was ready to end it, God spoke this verse to me. It has carried me through much, and taught me much about myself, about others, and how to minister.

Oh, yeah, and when you're done, call me. I'll be at Moorcat's today, but my phone will be with me. You can get my number (or any other contact info) here.

I'm guessing you probably wouldn't appriciate a phone call at 9pm, which is when I got off work today (uncomfortably early--usually I get off work after midnight your time), so when is usually a good time to call?
*hugs* Great to hear from yah!

Well, considering I usually don't get off work until 8:30pm...

And I am still up, though I'm going to run downstairs for a few minutes to find some food, then I'll be here folding laundry for the next couple hours.

People often say that this or that person has not yet found himself. But, the self is not something one finds, it is something one creates.

Hiya! My very first time in Alaska was winter in Fairbanks, but I've finally forgiven y'all. *innocent grin* And I think I'll always be a 'nook ('nuq?) at heart, no matter what school I attend. :-3
I'd argue with Tom, there...I agree that we do (or at least it should be us) create much of ourselves, but there are some parts that are hard-wired in, and when all else falls away, they are the very definition of who we are. And usually there are much less of these absolutes than we think.
