I'm not worried about other people's souls. To me we all come from God and return to God. Each person has their own path. I'm here to love them not condemn them.
As for me? The clock is ticking. I don't have that much time left and shouldn't be wasting it on worrying.
It's good to see you back. Hopefully old friends will find you soon.
I played cribbage with a friend yesterday. She was glum and needed the distraction. She perked up when I had a 24 point crib and beat her. Playing was important, not winning. Yes, I thought I had other things to do; but, apparently this was more important.
There isn't much regarding transgender or transexuality in the Bible. Gender is a cultural concept and transgender individuals exist in many places in the world. It's also not an issue in many places. As for transexuality, Baha'is consider it a personal medical issue. I understand that many folks do not accept that but accepting people as they are (or choose to be) is far less divisive than trying to control everyone or shame them.
Thanks everyone for the comments and support and understanding. It has been very stressful and exhausting. It has impacted me emotionally and physically. Spiritually, it has been a growing experience. I am glad I have a God that is bigger than all my problems. I don't know that I could get through it all without him. This definitely makes you rethink everything you take for granted in life and everything you hold near and dear. You find out things about the people you are close to both good and bad. It's been a very trying and tough time in my life.
Oh, my goodness. What a nightmare you've been enduring. I am so sorry this has happened to you! I am keeping you in my thoughts. I am glad you closed all your accounts with that bank - that was a very smart thing to do. Hopefully things get worked out soon.
If I realized I am just like everyone else and just as GOOD as everyone else -- that we all struggle but have so much potential -- then when in social situations I would finally be more likely to...
I am not sure I have an answer for this. I don't think I have a problem with seeing myself better than or less than others. I am just me. In social situations or otherwise, I try to be “what you see is what you get”. I don't try to be something I am not. No one has to like me. God loves me and I like myself. Really, isn’t that what really matters?
