Faith in God does mean faith beyond family and friend’s advice. See what God shows you, believe what God leads you to believe. The truth is in God’s teachings, please follow them. ° All the best from James M Sandbrook. 6th March 2013.

Some people get lost in “magical thoughts” and “magical words” and they give them such meaning in their adult life that they can think that to some degree that they are true. And to some degree we can blame years of watching fantasy, Disney etc as our teachers of life to some degree. But if

We live in a world that likes to believe that it is fair, and that we all have a choice of what future we want. We are taught in schools that life is all about our choices, but it isn’t. It should be, and in a fair world it would be, but in this one

Facing facts. We cannot grow or progress in life if we refuse to face facts about ourselves. If we accept lies then we are deceiving ourself. If we are blaming someone else for our weaknesses and our personal problems then we are unwilling to face the real truth about ourself. Living a lie will produce

Some of the most bitter people that I have ever met are those that lie to themselves refusing to face the truths or refusing to apologize for the bad or mean things that they have done. They suffer all through their lives, and if we try to get it across to them that it is

There are some people who go through life with a belief that other people or another person is the reason that they have “problems”, but the reality is that it is that person who is hiding from the truth by blaming others. Many mind doctors, sometimes to get on the good side is the patients

I have a few people I have been helping who have teenager’s or young adults in their early 20’s who have had some sort of trauma or stress that has turned into anxiety, therapy, drugs. The drugs were from other people. ° The troubled young adults all get to a stage of comfort when being

One way to know that people are not on your side is when you offer excuses for not wanting to do something, yet they go out of their way to take all your objections and excuses away, next thing you know they are coming to you with the same situation, but it is now set

Sometimes when I know that someone is going to turn on me, as some people do, I make excuses for that person before they get a chance to do any damage, so that I can avoid getting hurt by them. Or when they do turn on me I have already set up some excuse in

Evil influences people who have already become desensitized to get them to convince you to work in a job where you see people in misery, struggling in a daily basis or at least on a regular basis. By doing this you will become like those guiding you, you will eventually turn the other way and

Everyone should be allowed to choose for their own life. I fully believe that if a person has a good understanding of God and does not want to follow God that he or she should be allowed that choice. There are a few cases (including my own life) where I want God to let people

Every now and then someone comes along and confuses the experts. This person causes some upset amongst the experts because they tell the world how to achieve a better life and that they will come to love life, and themselves, in ways that the experts have never thought of. When one studies from books and

 What I mean by that is that people who don’t want to escape reality are a product of a strong, stable upbringing that taught them courage, gave them confidence, a feeling of being worthy, peaceful with their lot, in love with life, and wanting the best for themselves because they know that they are as

No matter how other people are we should always try to make enemies into friends by being friendly. Not easy sometimes but well worth the effort. ° If they refuse to be friends then at least you know that you have done your best and that you have shown your kindness, forgiveness and genuine willingness

My first thoughts are this: Of feeling another persons emotions because I care for that person so much that I want to feel their emotions so that I understand what they are going through during their life. I want to know how this person feels in the good times and the bad times. I want

An unemotional narcissist abuser has no problem with her anger, but she has a problem with your anger, especially if you are using your anger defending yourself against your abuser. No matter how the abuser treats others and feels that she has the right to treat others that way, she believes that the use of

A very foolish thing to do is to walk wearing earphones. In New Zealand people have been run over, crippled and killed because they have stepped out onto a crossing and not heard approaching traffic because they were listening to music with earphones. One young woman walked out onto railway tracks and was killed by

I knew a guy years ago who did Cocaine. I asked him why he would do such a thing when the risk of total addiction was so high. And he laughed it off and said that he was not addicted. I had read prior to this discussion that some people became instantly addicted after trying
