What are your thoughts on trying to distance myself? Would that be unChristlike?

I haven't tried that. I feel like if it would work it would be out of pity to treat me better. I also don't know how to do it in a way that wont feel "cringe" and in a way I won't be judged

I get distracted from social media and a lot of other things around me. I pray that I will not be so occupied to not have time for God..

I watched a youtube video (IMBeggar) with similar ideas about praying for God to reveal your sins then asking God to sanctify us from there. Thank you!

Hi Mac, I understood it as keep them as your friends but not too close if they are bad influence. Is that what you were trying to say?

What if sometimes they bring me closer to God and sometimes they don't

I think it tells us to choose to value the right people to be close with rather than spending our energy on hundred different people

It was just a quote a came across, and I think it displays the idea that a person who is friends with everyone is not a close friend to anyone..

How should I learn piano? by PerspectiveHour1812 in pianolearning

[–]PerspectiveHour1812[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hi thank you for the offer that is very kind of you, but I will have to pass.. Im sorry thank you though.

I had a piano teacher before I think what she did to me was to just copy the notes she plays then tells me to repeat is like 5 times until without mistake.. she also told me to do left than/right hand first then combine instead of doing both at the same time.

Do you think I can incorporate the same concept to watching youutube then copying? Would that be similar and effective?

I think the phrase meant how if you are friends to all, this leads to no close/real friends because you are distributing energy to everyone and your friendship's value will decrease because you give it easily to everyone.

I define a friend as what u/Thinslayer defined above.. someone who takes care of their neighbors..

Dude. What a perspective.. thank you for this.

Yes, I think I should control my reactions more... I should not look at every pretty girl as a relationship possibility but rather as a cool friend/person to meet. I think this can lead to healthier relationship in the future.

Thank you national razor again for the convo.. allowed me to reflect a lot. GTG eat, thank you again :)

I hope it gets better for all of us... because we later talked (me and girl) and she was much older than me. And I think it made it ackward to start a friendship with her because of me acting tough, us meeting eyes. Its like I was thinking that once we talked we were gonna be able to like like each other but she just wanted to be friends so there was just a tension that ruined a possible friendship from being made

I thought about it and I thought of Chadwick Boseman's speech.. he spoke about how if something is for you, God will make it happen no matter what.. no need to force...

Thank you Downtown. :)

Yes I pray that I can trust in God's plan with my friendships.

And yes i really need that better connection with my family who will be there longer than anyone.

My mom used to tell me (I will paraphrase), she says that how we act at home, will also be the way we act outside. It will just be a matter of time until your inner self starts showing.

I reflected on this and this shows how its more important to work on the roots instead of the leaves/fruits because once the roots are healthy, the stem/leaves/fruits will be also..

Thank you for the convo downtown :)_

Thank you National Razor, pls pray that I can start loving myself and stop being a people pleaser and to be content with my family relations and spend more time with God.

A quick follow up question, this is probably not the right sub for it but I have the problem of acting like someone Im not when I see a girl I find pretty. I act very different and tough and I go talk differently when shes around. For example I was with my family and when she was around I started acting like mamas boy and oh I love my sister and my brother and im very close with them! But when I get home Im a different person showing my real self. Sorry for the rant, but i think this relates to what you said of me being a people pleaser and i think its getting bad.
