Being active or semi-active in my church comes with a few challenges. One of those trials for me is dealing with people. For me this may be the second hardest part other than the obvious. I don't really associate with that many people at church because I don't have that much in common with them. I don't have kids, I'm not married, and even if I was, I doubt very much that they hang with me anyway. The only thing that we have is shared between is our beliefs ( well most of them ). There are three categories of people at church. There are the people who don't get me, they are the ones that I don't talk to and they don't talk to me. Then there are the people who talk to me because they have no choice for whatever reason. Finally, there are people that I do talk to because I want too.
Now it makes little sense for me to get into the other challenges because, I don't want to run my mouth on things that I've already blogged about till the cows come home. Maybe I just mention them briefly. There isn't exactly a recognized program for finding my partner in the church. My marriage will never be recognized by the church. I could choose to ignore what sometimes feels like a huge part of me. Anyway, the first paragraph is really what I wanted to talk about and I lost my train of thought. I need to get to bed.
** My ribs are feeling so much better by the way. Thanks to everyone for the good thoughts and prayers
