I Dare You

I am sitting here at a friends house filled with people i love, people i call family, people i laugh with, people i play with, people i sit and let my emotions run with. I'm on the computer talking to people i love, people i call family, people i trust, people i can speak my entire mind to and not worry what words i use, people who love me back? These people are a big part of my life. I dare you to find these people in your lives and I dare you to look at the them, truly look at them and realize what they are doing, how they are feeling, what are they actions saying compared to their words.

My people are ignoring one another, speaking nothing that is on their minds, and keeping everything they know and feel a secret from their friends. My friends are all changing into people who are no longer open but who want to be secretive. My friends are saddening themselves beyond depression and they won't turn back till they want to.

I dare you to realize what your friends say, not just with their words but with their words AND actions, and I dare for you to be there for them, to be open to them, cry for them, laugh with them, and pray for them.

I dare you.

I can Feel Mangos

Alright so I know that feelings are given from God in order to warn us of certain things going on, but He also instructed us that these are only feelings and our feelings change very quickly from one moment to the next. So the appropriate conclusion of this would be to be aware of our feelings but to not make decisions or judgements based on these decisions because they could not always be right. Alright with that little concept out of the way then I need to identify a few differences out there. We have at least two kinds of feelings I can think of. One of those feelings is our intuition. The feeling that something is going to happen, a cat is going to give birth in your car while you are driving, or the feeling that something is going on, my friend is drinking one liter of bacon grease as fast as he can, or even feelings about other individuals, that person is saying she's fine but what she really means is that she is ready to tear a dandelion into shreds and boil the pieces. The other type of feeling I can think of currently is the emotions we go through, I'm happy, sad, distressed, ecstatic, and sullen. (And bipolar I guess.) So my question is that if the above conclusion about feelins is true then I understand what to do about intutitive feelings but what about emotional feelings. If I have intuitive feelings I need to keep those in mind and be careful and possibly look for evidence to support my intuitions but make no absolute decisions that could cause terror in the future. But what about my emotional feelings? I have sadness or distress about something and what do I do about it. Whatever is causing these feelings already should have some proof or evidence of it (othewise I am clinically bipolar or depressed) so what do I do about it. Do i then make a decision and possiby cause more fret or do I deal with my feelings and just suck it up. I'm sure God has an answer to this, I must do some searching. Pray for me?
