MAAAW-EDGE!

In response to Drywall Monkey's post Thought's on Marriage...only this time I checked my spelling...

I heard a pastor give a little mini-sermon (sermonette) at a wedding recently and he made a few points that I felt like were really profound. 

First, a little background.  A few years back, I posted a blog about how pissed I was at two of my friends because they were getting divorced over an affair.  I wasn't pissed at the divorce, but the reasons behind and actions taken the lead up to the affair.  I'm sure a lot of you remember because my post went down in Alte Feuende history in the top five controversial posts. 

Anyway, the wedding I was at where I heard this profound sermonette was the wedding of one of the parties of the afore mentioned relationship.  I was having a hard time hearing this person make the same vows to the new person that I'd heared made before.  The pastor said what a lot of people were thinking and I thought these were really good words: if you see greener, plush, better looking grass on the other side, it has everything to do with the person watering the grass and caring for the yard.  The grass is only greener because someone is caring for that yard.  So, get your hose and fertilizer and take care of your own yard. Also, he commented on how the degree of intimacy and closeness we have with our spouse directly correlates to the intimacy, closeness and condition of our relationship with Jesus.  (Just thinking about Him causes me to feel all warm and fuzzy)!

The point, you might ask???  I see marriage as the parallel on earth to our spiritual relationship with Jesus.  Marriage, like our relationship with Jesus, is perfected over time, with dedication and maintenance, until death.  Marriage will be perfect when you and your spouse die, you will be perfect in Christ when you die.

Oh...and can you believe that I'm on Xanga???

Everyone I Know...

Everyone I know...EVERYONE...in some way, shape or form is one selfish son-of-a-bitch; including myself.  People are full of double standards, two-faced demands, unrealistic expectations, erratic and narcissistic behavior and the killer - each one thinks they are right, justified and down right verified in their own jacked up little minds. 


Humans make me sick.  This may piss you off, but that’s kind of the point.  You don’t think you do it.  You don’t think you have a self-serving bone in your body. Guess what, you’re wrong.  When it really comes down to it you don’t really give a shit about me or anyone else for that matter.  You are really only interested in what benefits you.  You are tolerant and accepting of the things that fit into your beautiful little princess/prince world.  If it doesn’t fit with you, you don’t like it/do it/accept it/buy it/condone it/vote for it/support it/embrace it…. 

You’re a hard core Democrat/Republican/Gay/Straight/Christian/Atheist and your full of shit!  You have put on a label, of some kind.  You are a yuppie, a hippie, a modern gospel, a Relevant reader, a artistic recreational drug user a conservative religious freak.  Whatever you call yourself, that is what you have become and people that don’t fit into your little world, your shallow, closed off, “me and only me” self-utopia get left in the dust of your forward moving life.  I hate myself for this.  I hate a lot of humans for this too. 

The fact that I’m even writing this only exonerates the fact that I think I have a point to make that is worth reading.  I sit here and think that I’m going to influence someone and change someone’s mind. Therefore, I’ll be the hero.  See…selfish.  There’s no escaping it. I have an ulterior motive that includes making you feel really crappy about yourself and makes me look like the good guy that has something really profound to say.  I have people in my life that are self-proclaimed “got it all figured out” fools!  They make decisions, prove points, try to establish some standing on some point all for what?  Did their point really take hold?  NOT AT ALL!  When it’s all said and done, they only served themselves.  The point they were trying to make?  Oh, that only masked the fear factor and guilt they were trying to hide for making the decision they made in the first place.  I’m so fed up with living a double standard.  Being ok with something when some of my friends do it and not ok with something when someone in my own family does it.  Maybe I need to adjust the way I look at things…

p.s. sorry if I pissed you off, I selfishly needed to get something off my chest.


Ha Ha!

Does Jesus come in pill form?

An open (fake) suicide note to doctors and various others:

You all suck. In the twenty years we have been suffering, the best you’ve been able to do is a mild painkiller. Countless office visits, a myriad of failed attempts at finding effective birth control pills that wouldn’t make us insane, Depo-Provera which made me gain obscene amounts of weight that I now can’t get rid of, dozens of prescriptions, ultrasounds, scans, blood tests, four laparoscopic surgeries between us, anti-depressants, anti-anxiety medications, diuretic medications, more blood work, replacement hormones, blood sugar medications, laser treatments, a gastric band and lame advice is what you have offered and none of it has worked.

Let’s not forget all the supplements, hours exercising, fortunes spent on diet plans, gym memberships and special food, “inner healing” sessions, laying on of hands, hours upon hours of therapy sessions, group therapy sessions, hours wasted sleeping and books read on the subject.

And yet, we’re still morbidly obese, anxious, depressed, and INSANE during our period; in severe pain more than a week of the month, I’m still throwing up regularly, we’re dog-tired more than half the month, covered in acne and unwanted hair and have absolutely no hope whatsoever. Jobs have suffered. School has suffered. Three enormously expensive vacations of mine have been ruined, not to mention hundreds of days out of our lives. We’ve spent thousands of dollars, thousands of hours and all the energy we have to spend. We’ve had enough. If you think it’s bad now, wait until menopause comes.

My sister and I are going to Vegas. We’re taking all our money and going on a coke bender until we die. We can’t take 20 to 30 more years of this. We’re done.

Love,

Sara and Hannah
