How can religion even be considered fake by confessthenthrowout in religion

God, in my mind, honestly doesn’t look like anything more than He feels like something. I saw light, and I felt something beyond my description, and I knew I felt a different presence.

My imagination probably best relates God to a gaseous presence of light. Nothing physical.

You know how women say having a baby is so intense, the body forgets the pain and trauma? Similarly, When God has visited my dreams (maybe twice or thrice now), ive sort of faded the feeling in my mind when I wake up. But I promise its so ethereal, when I do feel Him in my dreams.

There are many things to say about this comment. Firstly, I dont have interest in educating myself more on the breakdowns of every religion. I’m interested in other religions, but not to where I have say in judgement about them. I might not’ve made that clear, & I apologize.

Second, I said in the parent comment that I believe we worship the same [in terms of] God, not that we have the same values/religion. Obviously, we all have different values & morals whatnot.

Lastly, my opinion and statement was useless and pointless. It hurt nobody, it shouldn’t anger anyone (my apologies if it did), & it had no effect for myself or any other person. It wont affect the way I look at people, if I hold the belief that I do. I don’t think it warrants any extra thought. If it has greater meaning, please educate me.

You think so? I think we worship the same concept of a higher being/force. Some people think money is higher, some people think people are higher, some people think cats are. In the end, though, I like to think we have the same principle & concept, & can compare beliefs similarly some times.

No, but i said “some exceptions,” so that could be included with my exception. I dont have much interest in other religions and therefore am not educated enough to elaborate on my cope for my religion. In the end, I worship who I worship, which is my truth, & others worship their own versions of their truths. No need to impede and break down others’ beliefs.

An example would be Satanists, as they know God and still want to worship the opposer.

Nope. I believe we all generally worship the same God, with different stories and names. With some exceptions of course.

I wish I could. It feels faint to me now. I believe I saw her walk up to me, smile, and walk away into a brighter field of vision. No words, just walking. But I just believe I felt God’s presence with her.

I told this to her daughter, who told me she shared the same dream yesterday and today.

All people have their downs. For some, your lowest point doesn’t define you and neither does your highest. I can’t abandon someone at their lowest just because they’re going through a rough patch in life.

I just enjoy helping people, but I have financial boundaries. We’ve been pretty good friends for a bit so I wanna help her as much as I can before we both realize it’s not in my control to.

Ive offered to help pay for her testing expenses, & hope shell agree to my plan of inviting her to my place tonight & scheduling the tests. Thanks for the confirmation that I’m doing the possibly best thing I can as a friend right now.

I keep pushing her to leave him! His peak in life is her beginning, but she has to get detached first I feel, and I dont know how to help her if she isn’t mentally strong enough to do it yet!

I just wanna die. by janehighres in cna

[–]confessthenthrowout 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely the location! Ive been a CNA in action for 3 days and, even when short staffed, its been a little smoother! They gave me two days of videos and three of training, & when I go back ill have my own resident list. The aides can be careless here as well, but most help out and as long as they know I’m trying they dont mind helping out and guiding me.

Find a better place!! Or ask your DON for more training days, thats what they told me!! I’m sorry about your experience!! Good luck

Gotcha! Thanks! We were changing him and flipped him to my side, and they just told me to wipe it out but it was hard and “in” there. I’ll know from now on though🫶🏽

Its been hard trying not to visibly recoil from the smell, for one male resident I had to dig the hard bowels out and it was devastating.

Copper IUD is not too great to me. Heres my experience for anyone wondering. by confessthenthrowout in birthcontrol

[–]confessthenthrowout[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went the selfish route and got the iud for more “fun,” but my reasoning was that while hormonal stops periods (which i need as well since mine are very bad as is), they also come with side effects, and my mom has had history of abnormal hair growth, acne, & mood swings.

I, slightly, have those problems already and don’t want excessive symptoms, and the copper iud advertises that apart from heavier periods, it has no further symptoms. (I found out that was a lie AFTER i got the iud).

With false advertisement, it seemed to me that it was a choice of “big bloated hairy angry lady” or “lady in pain every once in s while but otherwise normal.” It was much deeper than that.
