Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
My mom has dementia, and today I had to take her to a challenging medical follow up appt. And she was awesome all day. Best day we've had in years. Really happy about that. Dementia is so strange, the way it comes and goes. No expectations for tomorrow, but today was a good day.
Doogle up. Hang in there, mom! Love is greater than all.
🙏
The Rising Column should just be the same number as posts in the New Column sorted to the amount of views.
Let's have some fun here !
Prayer Garden Podcast Episode 1: Ryan Slechta
This is the very first episode of Prayer Garden Podcast..I share some of my testimony and give a basic idea of what the show will be. It's a project that will be constantly molded so we appreciate any and all feedback. We would love to have u on. Newest episode (episode 9) should be filmed this weekend. It will be with my head pastor so u all can see the voice in my corner and he can share the vision for our church. Great things are ahead. Together through Christ we have endless potential https://youtu.be/NW6P-tzMuy0
Actually just talked to my church yesterday and got them to agree to make a church garden so our members can learn how and start eating better. Awesome to hear u got renewed motivation. Keep at it.
Thanks fren. I'm really excited. My church is really solid except for helping the members with body health. So this is a step in right direction. We also are prob gonna start some exercise classes and nutrition stuff.

I wonder what Gina Haspel is up to these days? I hope she's been refusing meals and getting them shoved up her ass.
Long time since I heard that name

Q: What post or comment did you make that didn’t gain the traction you believe it deserved. Or perhaps you think it was misunderstood.
Not that I am saying it deserved more attention, but I find it funny and can’t wait to see what this months box will be 😂

Answer of the Month (there will be no more Answers of the Day. Way too presumptuous! Head Office has cancelled the program, and disbanded the crew.)
Nothing can stop what is coming, but that doesn't mean...
... doesn't mean you will understand how it comes
... doesn't mean you will know when it comes
... doesn't mean you will like or approve of the way it comes
... doesn't mean you will move in concert with the way it comes
Understanding how it comes... that's up to you and me. Are we relentlessly searching for understanding? Working our minds? Continuing to investigate not just for facts, but for understanding?
Knowing when it comes.... that's up to them. But if we can consistently work on and construct an empowering understanding, then we may be able to recognize the signs. "Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near."
Liking how it comes.... Ay, there's the rub. For unless you are being challenged, or challenging yourself, then you may just find that you don't like certain things, or even disapprove. Or even doom. But this is why the Great Awakening must be YOUR great awakening as well. Metaphorically, humanity, and each of us too, if we engage in GA, is being squeezed through a bottleneck. The things that make it harder to move through that narrow, tightening bottleneck are the things that we don't really need in the place we are going: ego, selfishness, prejudice, an unopen mind, too rigid a way of thinking, identification with this fallen corrupted world.
Moving in concert with the way it comes.... Again, the more you and I are divested of that which holds us back, which makes the bottleneck more painful than less painful, the more naturally we will move forward in concert with how it comes.
So, first and foremost, faith. Have faith in God, or faith in the future, or faith in your ability to be more than you were yesterday, or faith in your fellow countrymen and people, or faith in Christ, or faith in the power of good, and all or any of the above.
Faith begets vision, and vision empowers. Walking through the darkness is truly the test of faith, when you can see nothing at all. It is darkest before the dawn, but he who collapses before the dawn will fail to see it's light.
Hope, then. Hope begets Faith. Hope begets ability, and mobilizes capacities we never knew we had.
And Love. Love God, love humanity, love creation, and love the good. Love begets hope.
And remember: nothing can stop what is coming.
Your explanation reminded me of the refining of a precious metal.
And in order to really embrace and serve and be served by the 7 Billion people that are here will take some Patience, Truth and Courage and other things I believe you allude to.
kek.
Maybe I'll reboot. It just seems kinda way too pretentious to posit "Answer for the Day", as if the answers are really answers, and actually the answer to anything.
It was originally designed as a bit of a spoof, obviously, to parlance with Question of the Day, which, for a Q research bunch of frogs, makes great sense.
Questions are hardly ever pretentious, answers, well, who the heck is the Iron guy to provide answers??????
I dunno. I don't think anyone ever took the AOTD as anything other than a bit of a sometimes jovial blurb, but the "This is the answer" concept seems too ..... I dunno.
Maybe Musing of the Day? Extraneous Remark of the Day?
That said, perhaps I just cannot handle the pressure of having to show up consistently....
PS. FI is ketoing too. No rice. Just lotsa kimchi jiggae with that yummy tofu...
When I stay way from the boards my mind wanders.... I saw a pic of Jill Biden as a kid on Joe's lap.
A kid who was just babysitting to get some extra money. This devil groomed her, probably got her involved in his wife's death and has owned her ever since. She's a victim of him and trapped in the shame of her own weakness and deeds. I'm going to pray she gets the courage to stand up and face what she has done and tells her story.
Diamond, emerald, tanzanite. I know, not the slave derived kind
Opal, emerald, amethyst
Sapphire, Agate (I had a rock tumbler as a kid and loved the agates) and Labradorite because... dogs.
I don’t wear jewelry though.
Tourmalated quartz, lepidolite, and some sort of fire or golden healer quartz. I wear a fabric bracelet with tourmalated quartz everyday and simetimes also a rose quartz one
I know there is someone on here, they turned me onto lepidolite. Makes a massive difference
That might have been me! Lepidolite is my all time favorite. I’ve preached it’s healing properties to many.
Me: Lepidolite, Moonstone, and always a quartz.
The time was six o' clock on the swatch watch, got a date
Spirit moved me to save this song to share today.
Stevie Wonder - Love's in need of love today
"Good morn or evening friends..."
