Shiori Miko Icemist Dawn Valheita Icemist Dawn I'm scared to admit to my family that I'm atheist. x x I told my mum that. She said something to the effect of "Nonsense" and that I knew better that there were more things than science can explain. I guess I should be lucky she's a new age spiritualist rather than a Christian D: My parents are like major Christian though so..eh. .___. Atleast when the subject of evolution comes up they don't run around screaming, "I am not a monkey!" sweatdrop I got lucky on this front. My parents never tried to indoctrinate me into a religion. My step-father collects religious concepts, but that's more because he's a philosopher than anything else.

Am I the only vaguely religious person here?
And by vaguely, I mean vaguely. At all. I'm not super-religious. But I do believe in the God stuff.

And by vaguely, I mean vaguely. At all. I'm not super-religious. But I do believe in the God stuff. Depends what you mean by 'believe'. God's existence isn't really something that can be proved or disproved. I'm at least open to the possibility?

Umm, sorry if I'm seeming like a betch lately D:> Or if I somehow offended anyone x) Just trying to sort some stuff out D:> I might as well write stuff too ^^,
Over the past 4 or more years I've helped A LOT of people, from those with social anxiety to those who just needed a friend to be there for them. It's all worth it when they thank you and it's then you realised how important it is to help others. One example was this guy I knew in school and he was like a year older than me, but he SO, SO shy, and whenever I talked to him he was like really quiet and depressed litrally, so I just carried on talking to him and helping him with his problems. We talked loads on msn and stuff, and with advice I gave him, he finally got the courage to talk to other people, and now whenever I see him, he's with his group of friends and has a gf he's been with for over a year now. It makes me happy to see happy endings like that ^^,
When helping people, I tend to encourage those to just let out how they feel because it's always better that way (well it is for those I helped) but personally I find it extremely hard to do myself XD I dunno why, maybe because I'm usually a closed book and just don't let anyone know how I feel ^^, ... My sister said something along the lines of 'You may be the sunshine for nearly everyone, but sometimes you'll need one yourself' D:> It's just so hard to say when I feel bad, I'm just so used to helping others xD
But here's like one thing that's on my mind. My mum is sorta ill, and she takes tablets to help her, she's had a blood test done because she's been feeling really bad lately, doctors only gave her tablets to help her until the blood test results come back. When she tells me she's feeling sick and dizzy, it worries me. She feels weak at times, but the fact she's mentally strong makes me feel I shouldn't worry, but it's hard because she's like one of the few people I'm close to. D:> I really, really hope nothing is wrong with her.
Oh, and thank you Misfit for yesterday ;P

MY poor sikhy! *hugs* i'm here if you ever need me and i'm a closed book about certain things (see my previous super long post about my bf a couple pages back and the fact that i refuse to talk about some of it), there are parts of me that i wouldn't tell almost anybody about unless i know them really really really well and even then it's hard. *hug* 3nodding

Nim honey don't feel alone *pets* I'm a Christian <3333
Mind you I often feel that I'm letting the team down (despite the name I'm quite prone to mistakes)... However I guess thats all part and parcle, knowing that even when you do stuff up that is forgiveness there as a safety net ;D
---o0o---
Sikh sweetie *glomps*
I havent noticed you being anything of the sort.
Talking emotions.... I tend to do the exact same thing, dont say anything and let others use me as a listening post. I find it easier to help others then address my own issues, I mean I even refuse to post my issues in here. So I guess at least your further down the track to opening up to people which is good ^^
However the good thing is that once you start talking it all tends to rush out... so starting is half the battle : )
Also as far as your mum is concerned I guess all you can do until the blood results come back is to let her know how much you love her and be strong for her like she is being for you.
Do you have any idea when the results come in?
*hugs*
---o0o---
Talking about opening up I suppose I'd better follow my own advice.
1. Swapping courses has me in a twist... however I'm talking to the advisor in a few days so that should sort out that. Yet I'm still worring pointlessly.
2. Commitments... I feel I have responsibilities to people and I havent completed them yet... it's weighing me down and I know the only way to get rid of the guilt is to suck it up and complete them.
3. Family are having issues. It's a sticky issue however it boils down to the fact I wont be seeing my new baby cousin and my darling daddy has a controll issue.
4. Friends I have them but I get the impression that I'm the one doing all the organizing of events and being the constant listening post.
5. I hate food. No really it's become an issue the taste is starting to make me feel ill and I tend to only eat when I'm positively ravenous. I'm not quite sure how to deal with this... however I think I'll just have to change my thoughts toward food and stop telling myself it's yucky.
6. Who the heck am I??? I'm questioning things to the max and actually unsure about who I am. So some soul searching is in order here.
7. Time. The lack of it is horrible. I spend far too much time here. I need to limit myself.
8. I'm not quite sure why I'm so unsettled.
Well looking back my issues all seems rather petty. Yet I did say I was going to say them... so rather then delete them like normal I'll leave them here.
Anyway I'll be fine... I'll just... I'm not too sure. I guess I'll sort something out.

everything in bold i have the same problems! i'm not really sure what to do about them either. and i envy you for the abiliy not to eat so much. .. i just stuff my face all the time and have no control... it's not that i physically need the food just mentally i do, ah! i don't know!
my eating habits are screwed and i'm fat and need to lose weight (the doctors even say so) but i just can't seem to do it! i can't force myself to eat healthily because i simply don't like most of the healthy food, i don't like the taste of most vegetables and a lot of the lower fat/calories etc stuff either isn't all that filling or also tastes yuck. And i also have minimum willpower when it comes to food. *sighs*
it's just so frustrating cause i always try really hard and then i just give up when i realise i can't go oncause it never does anything! and it's not like anyone really helps, they just tend to ignore what i'm saying and just be like well you should eat more healthily or you should exercise more (on that i am trying! i went to the gym yesterday, although i went out for lunch after, so that FAILED, but i'm going again today once i've tidied the house a bit and stuff). and if i tell my parents it's not like they pay attention my mum still cooks us pizza and stuff for tea even when i'm trying to be healthy.

You can't really blame your 'mum.' I mean, it would be nice if she helped by cooking healthier foods, but she doesn't really have to. You're old enough to cook for yourself, so it's not fair for you to transfer the blame over to her.
I know I'd be pissed if someone told me I couldn't make the food I wanted because of their diet. It isn't her problem XP

I have the feeling that if I manage to limit my time here I'll have more time for me and so I will be able to really look at and see if there's something I can do about being a talking post, if it's just my perception or sort myself out enough to talk to my friends about it.
XD how ironic we have the opposite problems!
If only the ability to meld qualities worked ^^
However I think the solution for both of us lies in our mental strength. We have to be strong mentally and overcome the issue by breaking it down.
I know for me that will involve starting walking, cutting down on the sugar intake, being organized and packing lunches.
I no longer have a dog to walk with (I haven't been out walking since she died and I know it's silly but as soon as I do the reminder that she's gone will twist a little further... not that this is a sensible reason and I need to get over it). I seriously ADORE sweet things and the cravings demand satisfaction. Then there is being organised.... yeahhhhh I'm quite the last minute person so this will be my biggest hurdle.
So that's the solutions... the dilemmas and all that remains is for me to shred them down and follow through.
...thats the hard bit razz
POWER TO THE MINDS!
Have you considered talking to your mum about dinners? Offering to help her cook something healthy?
It seems you have taken the first steps... and it's time for me to take mine.
I'm going to 'limit my time here' and run off to bed before my resolve waivers.

So no one else in her family is allowed to eat what they want because she has a willpower issue? =/
