wtf

wtf I don't know why people hate on the Bible...apparently there are a lot of people I am learning that grew up with religion the wrong and negative way...but you and I are adults now. I have major spirituality...I love praying every day and all day, its what keeps me calm and focused...prayer is a form of meditation...but I came here today because I opened my Bible to Psalm 37...I haven't read the whole chapter because the first verse blew me away...ive been thinking negatively lately...why do these people get to do what they want while other people struggle...don't hate on the Bible...open the freakin book and LISTEN TO IT...just read the message it has for you today...I'm not trying to tell you to be Christian, I don't believe in any one religion...but you cannot deny this book written by many wise men and women (even tho many of the women are excluded from such credits)...if there are any spiritual books you would like to recommend I would appreciate you buying me them I'm already spending all my money on school and my life...but yes, I am open to ready anything that you think I would love...Psalm 37:1 says "Don't worry about the wicked or envy those who do wrong." this is something I struggle with big-time...just yesterday as I was leaving a burger joint (I got a veggie burger) there was some small dude with his girl and baby...I wasn't sure if he was talking on a headpiece or what but as I am walking out this skinny little dude that I could myself kill was ranting "with these kind of things I could shoot you in the face"...we made eye contact and he quickly looked to the ground...as I kept walking I asked the person I was with if she heard any of this and of course she says no...don't people care about their surroundings??? I get ridiculed sometimes because I pay attention to EVERYTHING...I believe in justness and fairness...as I looked back to see if I needed to take the mother and baby away I realized he was just talking all tough on the phone...why is she standing for that...why is she allowing her baby to grow up like this...why is he in the business of having to shoot and threaten people for whatever reason...why doesn't he be a proper person for this new life he seeded...I cannot just stand around and pretend I don't see or hear anything...I am about to cry now...this is what happened to me...people knew what was going on in my life when I was young AND DID NOTHING ABOUT IT...I will not let this happen to other people...as an adult I have stepped in to matters on the street when it comes to women and children...who else does this...does anyone know of any organizations that just walk the streets and help people?...I have done prayer walks around Skid Row with the local church...its amazing how I felt so natural to do this...and the people I spoke to, all they want is to not be ignored, to know that someone actually cares...I do care...I do love...I will have to read the rest of this chapter to see what King David has to say about this matter...I may not like or agree with it...and its ok for me or u to not agree with everything in the Bible...but I will learn something...and I will try and trust that the Universe, God, whatever many labels there are for this Spirit, is going to make everything better in the end...but for the meantime, I will NOT just pretend to be ignorant and I will NOT do nothing...

the only time I have to write is if I wake up at 4am, and if I don't have to be at work by 9am...I love this. I am not in school yet, but I am trying. city college does not have online classes in the field I want to take, so I need to do online courses, which I have to pay for and which is really frustrating me trying to make the best decisions along with figuring out my finances. but I still  wake up at 4am anyways, even if I have not officially started school I still wake up and train my body to do what I have to do: study, and yoga. I make my bed as soon as I wake up. I make herbal tea, no coffee, no caffeine, and I stay awake. I read from four different books, including one of my favorite versions of the Bible: a Life Recovery Bible, in a New Living Translation. the Bible is not a scripted reading for me, I simply open the book to whatever page opens, and read from there. today I opened to a page entitled Reflections on Judges. I haven't read the whole page yet but I immedi

I went to 2 NA meetings today... at the second one I shared something that I would like to share with you now...I have been running away since I was 11 years old...I used to dream all the time and longed to be kidnapped...I wanted some stranger to rescue me and take me away from the situation I was in... but noone ever came to save me...we lived in a 2 bedroom apartment on the second floor filled with small roaches and other torments...the person who was supposed to be my mother slept in the bigger master room, while the 3 of us had the much smaller room with bunkbeds and a crib...I feel like I cried most days there...I feel like I was beaten most days there...she is still sick to this day...I still hate her and wish harm on her to this day... but the good thing is that I hardly ever think of her so I don't have to have that negative shit in me much...at the meeting I shared that since 11 years of age when I got my period in 7th grade I would jump out of my second story bedroom win
