I dont know if I will make it. I can’t keep living this way. I will isolate myself and try to pretend the world is no longer spinning.

Steps up to heaven in my dreams

Star,

There's so much to enjoy on this green earth. Your own photos testify.

Stay grounded.

GOD's throne is in Heaven. We are at His footstool. Isaiah 66:1

Not as slaves but happy to be part of a great nation.

Who truly is drinking the "milk of the nations" today?

"You will actually drink the milk of nations. At the breast of kings you will nurse..." Isaiah 60:16

Yes, i personally enjoy the best in every way, especially spiritual things.

[Hidden in reply to newbie1956]

Hi you sound level headed enough to help me.I'm emotionally dependant on others and its hurting me and the people I care about.I'm constantly asking the question 'Are things going to be ok?' every time something thats happening with corona and the social hysteria changes.Personally I have issues with believing in any religion because parts of the universe do seem well be like a sociopath. I'd like to believe in something spiritual if it would help me but the craziness of everything has been stabbing me repeatly for years.

[newbie1956 in reply to Hidden]

Hokieman,

Please forgive me for my long delay. How are you today?

Hoping to hear from you soon because I understand your request.

Sincerely

[newbie1956]

Please don't isolate ...

Proverbs 18:1 tells us why ...

"Whoever isolates himself pursues his own selfish desires; He rejects all practical wisdom."

Hang in there Starr. Your picture is gorgeous.

Sorry you’re feeling bad. Anxiety is a pretty constant companion.

I understand what you’re going through. There have been so many times when I just want everything to stop so that I can float in oblivion. The biggest key to getting out of that mentality is finding an activity that you actually want to do. If you can look forward to even 5 minutes of your day it will make getting out of bed so much easier. Maybe try to find your Heaven’s Stairs IRL?

[Starrlight in reply to SunIsShining]

Great suggestion; I’ll try to find something to get into.

Hi Starrlight,

You doing okay?

[Starrlight in reply to Hidden]

(((((((((((((((Hug)))))))))))) better this morning...thanks ... how are you?

[Hidden in reply to Starrlight]

Hugs to you too, sweetheart! I'm so glad you're feeling better!!

I'm doing fine, thanks for asking! I've been traveling in my country of Norway for the past week. My husband and I take the train back to Oslo today. I'm anxious to see if my plants survived. Someone's been watering them, but still. We are having a heatwave there right now.

[Starrlight in reply to Hidden]

Sounds amazing. Have fun!

[Trevor2]

It helped me a lot to take a break from all media and social media for a while. Having the craziness of the world in your face non stop can overwhelm you.

Try taking a complete break from it for a week then only expose yourself to it for a few minutes every other day.

You won't miss much and will enjoy the peace.

[Starrlight in reply to Trevor2]

Good idea. ❤️
