why can't I cope longer?

Hi @Adge, no I don't believe in Karma. Bad things do happen to good people... Judgement day... now that's a different story 🤔
Your canary must think you need the exercise lol I have humerus visions of you running aroud the house with a bird net 🤣
Gosh, you have had some good rain in the west, definately a wet winter ☔
Mask free is good. I carry a fabric mast in handbag and glovebox cause it changes. Got to when social distancing difficult. I was looking at contact suburbs in Sydney last night, i think the horse has bolted there 😟 with all my rels I find myself praying for them even after what they put me through. One of my nephew's just had his first child and it's even in his suburb. This Delta is a game changer. I worry for the stress our leaders are under... with all the criticism (not support) that's chucked at them... I'd be a mess. They're just human.
Anyway, keep warm and dry and safe Adge 💙💚💛🧡❤️

I like your Peace Dove (carrying Twig) picture @Former-Member That's lovely.

Several of my neighbours (not nice people) need a Judgment Day - I don't see one coming (yet).

My Birds Always think it's Christmas, or the Promised Land, or a Land Flowing with Milk & honey - When they escape the Cage or Aviary.

Whoopee they go.....Rather stressful for me, yet they're having a Wonderful time.

Just as well Canary wasn't outside in Aviary - I've never got any back, that got out of my Aviaries.

I have Fabric Mask too, tolerate it slightly better than paper Dust Mask (not much).

I keep Masks in my Car, because I'm always driving to get there first.

Yep, most of my relatives, including Mum & Brothers - are in Sydney, right in the middle of spreading Delta virus.

So yes I am worried about them.

If my bro who is Blind & intellectually disable got this virus, he might die - he has multiple illnesses, impaired liver, & maybe impaired immune system.

Yes that is very kind & compassionate of you - to be Praying for your relatives, people who wished you harm.

Apparently Forgivesness & Letting Go is Good for us (Good for the person doing it) - Although I cannot do that with some people.

Thanks @Adge, haha! your birds are so gorgeous, love how you light up when you talk about them. You quoted a few scripture references there: Promised Land, Flowing with Milk & honey... 🤔 I keep Masks in my Car too, after I got caught out once.
Don't know why but I thought your relatives lived in Singleton, the Hunter. Are you able to ring an of them, let them know you're concerned? Praying for relatives helps the forgiveness without putting myself in harm's way. You're right how it sets us free more than them. The best thing that helped me 'forgive' (relinquish my right to hold their debut against them)... was when I realised it wasn't 'letting them off the hook' rather, it is TAKING THEM OFF MY HOOK AND PUTTING THEM ON GOD'S.
One of my answers is overwhelmingly fearful of dying I'm told... he'd rather that than repent I guess, he is 80 now and oh boy, his fate in God's hands is nothing I could dish up (Matthew 18:6) No wonder he's scared.
Bit triggering sorry, need to change subject.
What did you do today?
I rang a couple of old friends in Sydney, been a while and it went well so glad I stepping up as I've been very withdrawn from everyone lately. One lovely friend of my mother's, she's 89 now, still at home and just lovely. Mum loved her too. She inspires so many with her loving nature and resilience.
Gotta go. You take care Adge- 🐥🦉🕊️

Hope your relos stay safe @Former-Member @Adge 🙏💞

Yes all those Scripture References seem to fit the situation @Former-Member I'm rather, 30 years after studying Theology & Biblical Studies.

Yet much of it is still in my head - at least the intuitive sense of it is.

Almost completed  Bachelor of Theology - Then Converted it into a Bachelor of Arts in Theology & Education Studies.

That's what I Graduated in - before I then got my Graduate Diploma of Science in Environmental Management.

None of those Studies ever earned me any $$ (they cost me $15K) - Was only ever paid rock bottom Minimum Wage, all my decades in the Workforce.

Sorry if that's a long Spiel - No I'm not Publicising or Selling myself.. 

It's just that I never ever get the opportunity to mention my Studies or what I've done to anyone....

No one is ever usually interested...

Good night.

Thanks @Anastasia ❣️ how are you doin?

[Former-Member]

Spiel away @Adge, we wanna know. It's all part of who you are. No study is ever wasted but it would be good if it Brang more money. I did Bible college and have Cert in Ministry, but yeah, who wants to know? We needed to at the time and it does shine through. ❣️

I picked up this little white cupboard off gumtree, to use as a blanket cupboard. Often when I open it, and only when I open it, im overcome with visions of a little girl  asleep in there, and it troubles me, and i want to save her. Not sure what to do so Last night I prayed to God over the space, and for the soul. What else can I do? Guess I'll get rid of it if I have to 🌺

@Sha51 love you 😍

[Anastasia]

You are such a beautiful soul @Former-Member 

Hoping the prayers work to bring peace 🙏💞🌷
