This day has been an interesting
… and productive one š
I spent the
morning hours psyching myself up for the evening (I’d heard rumors of stirring trouble in
Paradise); by the time I waltzed out
the front door, I felt ready to deal with anything (now I know how my Pomeranian
used to feel when wading in among big dogs š).
On my way out of town, I
stopped at the gas pumps to fill the tank for tomorrow’s trip to Graysriver, to
spend the day with friends, there.
Things
have been a little tense closer to home – tomorrow’s West End visit is really
being looked forward to.
My life has ALWAYS been a
complicated one. It is almost like Elohim gets a bang out of watching me
struggle with the puzzle pieces that make up the picture of my life.
Nothing ever
came easy for me. Except Bob;
when Elohim blessed me with Bob, THAT puzzle piece slid right into place so
easily Bob & I both wore smiles for 44 years.
But most of the time, when I
decide on something, Elohim gives me a few puzzle pieces that will go in hard,
and says, "Here, try this" – and then stands back and watches me. HE
KNOWS ... and I know ... that eventually the pieces WILL fall into
place, but it is frustrating until that happens. And sometimes, the {happening}
needs a little push.
Tonight, was one of those
harder puzzle pieces: it’s been building to a crescendo for a few months, and
tonight it got settled, once and for all.
I spent the evening hours
with friends up Spruce Creek. Listening, talking, consoling, encouraging – someone
was dealing with forgiveness issues, so I shared what I know about forgiveness.
It can be hard, but it is necessary (https://jeastofeden.blogspot.com/2021/10/forgiveness.html)
… and we also enjoyed a lively Jam Session.
Half way into it, things got
real lively when four jerks decided to be bullies, and tried to oust a person
because of their youth.
Citing “anger
issues” – while displaying their own anger issues!
So, I waded into
the troubled water, and jerked the jerks around a bit; force-feeding them their own poisoned pills. The
attempted coup was stopped in its tracks before the rebellion took root š
People
got a good look at the no-nonsense-side of me tonight – I don't tolerate
bullshit very well
I
may look like a pushover, but I can throw a sucker punch that will set people
on their ass before they even see it coming.
I
think the Jam Sessions will be better tuned for the foreseeable future š
