this is supposed to be posted yesterday but blogger kind of screwed up yesterday so i'm posting it today hello blog. today is monday. heard of monday blues? yup. really long and boring day today. had maths supplementary after school. boring. waited for 3A people to finish their classes for like one hour while doing maths homework. went home with mel lem jenn sab celine and grace via 10 and me lem jenn were sort of like nerds united as we studied on the bus lol . poor melson, he must be feeling so left out. went home via 29 after taking 10. there weren't any seats and i was standing beside this nurse who was sitting down but the ceiling of the bus kept dripping water on her so i was like use my palm to shelter. and she gave me a tissue. how nice people can be. came back home and grinded through more maths homework while getting frustrated over my incapability of solving circle angle questions. so i decided to read my christian book and the chapter i was reading is really kind of meaningful so i decided to quote it here: "How could you?" Helen screamed. "How could you ever do such a thing?" Tom stared helplessly at his wife. He had commited adultery, faced his sinful actions, and asked his wife to forgive him. "But you know it was wrong," she said. "You knew that was the ultimate betrayal of our marriage." " I never planned for an affair to happen," Tom said with tears in his eyes. Tom wasn't lying. He knew he was making a few bad choices, but he hadn't looked ahead at the consequences of his actions. AFter almost an hour of pleading, he said something that helped Helen begin to understand and eventually to forgive. "I was unfaithful to you in hundreds of ways before I ever commited adultery." He spoke of their being too busy to spend quality time together, his critical attitude, her occasional lack of emotional response, her not listening to him when he talked about problems at the office. "Just little things, always little things," he said. "At least in the beginning they seemed that way." That's exactly how Satan works in human lives. He begins by bombarding our minds with cleverly devised patterns of irritation, dissastisfaction, nagging thoughts, doubhts, fears, and reasonings. He moves slowly and cautiously (after all, well-laid plans take time). Tom said he began to doubt that Helen truly loved him. She didn't listen, and she didn't always respond to his amorous moods. He dwelt on those thoughts. Whenever she did anything he didn't like, he kept track. He kept track by remembering and adding that to his list of dissastifactions. One of his coworkers listened and she offered him sympathy. One time she said, "Helen doesn't deserver a warm, caring man like you." (Satan also worked in her.) Each time Tom took a tiny step off the right path, he justified his actions in his mind: If Helen won't listen to me , there are other people who will. Although he said the word people to himself, he really meant the woman in the next cubicle. The coworker listened. Weeks later, he hugged her and as he did so, he wished he could feel that caring response from his wife. It was a harmless embrace - or so it seemed. Tom didn't grasp that Satan is never in a hurry. He takes time to work out his plans. He doesn't immediately overwhelm people with powerful desires. Instead, the enemy of our minds starts with little things - little dissastifactions, small desires - and builds from there i could almost relate this to my life. i lost to satan. lost it and made her feel hurt. i'm sorry, really sorry. ![]()
