What Moved You Emotionally Today?

[myheart]

didn't imagine him to keep the thread. :D

It's those 'little things' that seem to mean the most to people...me too! The unexpected or unasked for...like birthdays and the like! Just a wee little thing that you wanted to do for someone, to let them know that you know them and that you care! That proves my theory that "It's the Little things that mean the most."
It reminds me of something I read once that said, "Any flowers you were going to give me at my funeral, please give them to me now."

how I will be provided for in the future.

Hi there! I am in the same situation as you. It "seems" that our ability to continue our lives with a wee bit of money depends on the government, but it's not true. The reason we have our sustinance is because God Himself wills it.

@Kim500 I know you are right, I do thank God for what I have and for the little and big things He does for me quite often. None the less, the devil keeps tossing those flaming arrows my way, no matter what I do. I read the Bible, I pray, I visit with other believers, etc. For awhile I take my mind off of the fear, but it comes again whenever I let my guard down just the slightest. I am by no means giving up! I figured I would share here about it, because I had a feeling that others might be in the same situation. I guess I was right.

I have days when this really gets me down and then I have ones that it does not get to me hardly at all. I am going through a med change at this time, so that has added to my woes. There is only so much that a poor soul can take sometimes!

Thanks for your support and the important reminder. You are right, of course!

Do you think it is the nameless dread @SheilaKathy? Laurence Heller writes about it in his book?

Day 6

It is snowing here but again and I have developed cabin fever and a wee bit of anxiety.:nailbiting: So lately I have been yacking at a member to have fun & passion... and then thought,"What is fun for your butt, ole' timer?" :cautious: So don't:spitdummy: but I among other things LOVE to cook with passion.

So this home bound crispy critter cooked for two days straight various dishes from scratch, with bubbling sauces and various garnish, while singing badly at the top of my lungs:whistling: and twirling about. The home wafted with scents from the oven, steamer, iron cast skillet, crock pot and when all was completed...I dished out the delectable assemble to my very humble Mr. who could not praise enough! And I smugly thought...:meh:...but of course ...life with passion is suppose to sizzle, be rich and make one want more...


Today I felt empowered ...getting this outfit for next time!:clown:

I have not read his book, so I am not sure what "nameless dread" is. Can you explain it briefly to me?

This dread, if I get down to the basics of it, is that I would end up homeless again. However, I have to remember that when I was homeless before, I did not know God nor how to pray. Since I do know Him now and do pray, this is not as bad as it could be. I just have to remember to pray, because sometimes the dread overwhelms me and I forget to do so. I have noticed that when I pray I do feel better.

I have hope this morning. I guess that is an emotion. I shall wait and see if some other emotions show up later in the day. Then I will post here more.

@Recovery4Me : Glad that you had so much fun cooking....and I start drooling just from reading about the delicious food. :hungry:

I was really moved by the sincerity of my trainee. We were driving from one appointment to another and talked even about very private stuff and he was very open, emotional and honest. I really liked this conversation.

I'm sure that you and I aren't the only ones in this situation either, since a lot of people read things and relate, but just don't post much. So thank you for sharing!!!! :hug:

I just have to remember to pray, because sometimes the dread overwhelms me

I feel that way sometimes too, overwhelmed. When it's bad, I just get in bed and say my favorite prayers over and over till I fall asleep for a bit. And when I wake up, I usually feel better!

@Kim500 Yes, sleep is one of God's greatest gifts.

Lately I am not having fun doing what is usually fun for me. I think that is a symptom of Depression. I want to have fun, but it just isn't happening and I am finding it hard to be interested in anything. I sure hope this passes soon, I hate it! Usually my life has been good and these moods have not happened to me in a LONG time. I think this is all due to the medicine change I am going through. I see my psychiatrist in about a week, so hopefully he will have some answers.

It's been a hard day, but here goes.

I was moved to feel angry in my therapy session about a medical misdiagnosis that damaged my life. Angry for me, which is very, very rare, and something I need to do.

I was moved by the people who read and like/comment on my posts on this site, even when I'm struggling. Especially when I'm struggling.
