the middle ground

compromise is such a big word.

most times, it's easy to do. because the issue isn't too close to either's heart. sometimes it's hard. and that's when you have to remember that the relationship is what's important. and not the issue at hand. easier said than done.

think i'm going to visit good shepherd tomorrow. i'm in need of some guidance. that and i need to pray for patience. in more ways than one.

amen.

I can only guess what you're alluding to.....
patience, patience, D - you're growing roots, remember? take your time to really enjoy what you have & thoroughly prepare for the bundle tt'll come ahead. I know you have certain geriatric push factors, but don't rush this. I don't know if you've ever really had to wait for anything, but there is a time & place for everything in the cycle. patience...the hardest 8 letter word huh? (2x harder than 4-letter words!)
ps: thanks for your testimonial dear - some parts really made me blush.... & not the B&S part ;)

trust that the big guy up there does know what he's doing...and that he does answer our prayers. it's just that sometimes we forget that the answers can be "no", "not right now" or "when you're ready"...which aren't exactly what we're looking forward to hear.

have faith girlie...keep your chin up...and be strong.

*huuuuuuugz*

actually, there's more to it than just that.. but that's part of it. there's more right now that's pressing.. feeling of self-worth has hit all-time low. and i know a large part of that is just cos i'm impatient with myself.
but thanks, jan.. for reminding me about roots. some day i'll grow the stem, eh? *wink*

and btw, i meant every word of that testimonial. =)

hey van, you're absolutely right. i DON'T want to hear "not right now". i think that i should know best..and that this is what would be best for me right now.

guess i can't see his plan for me, and hence won't know the entire picture. oh well...
