So, please let me bore you with some useless crap.
I have absolutely nothing to say tonight... alright, stratch that, I DO have something say, but you ain't gonna hear it... alright, fine I made the semi-promise, I'll just be careful as to what I say. So here goes.
There's a person I know who feels extremely unloved and takes any wrong move as proof that they are unloved. Now these wrong moves can be anything, really, anything at all. It can be as simple as hanging out with one of their friends when they aren't there; now this isn't not inviting them, no, it's simply them not being there for whatever reason. If anyone unwittingly breaks this strange code of conduct, this person will rip them a new one. At this point you may be thinking "this person needs professional help" and you may be right (it has been suggested), but this person is an adult, and since the problem hasn't gotten "dramatic", and they won't take it, that's not an option.
So how does one deal with that? I believe I have been called to be loving, but what does that mean to someone who views my love for one person as hate for them? I won't yield to their desire for me to be less loving to a person, but I still want to show them love. It's not that they hate the people I care about; it's just that they seem to be afraid of me becoming a better friend to them than they are. Ah, I don't know, maybe this is when I should pray.
This is truly a bizarre world and I'll keep trying to do what's best. Though I haven't "arrived" at anything close to perfection and I still screw up more than I like to admit, I know I'm working hard to do better. Words by Flogging Molly that have helped me get through overwhelming times come to mind "Hell, I'm doing all I can".
Hope you guys are also "doing all you can" to make this place better,
me
