To me, the holidays reflect that we all have similar wants, desires, and needs. It is a time of Love and reflection. I wish you all happiness, miracles, and fulfilled dreams. Live your life, and never stop chasing your dreams. Never stop believing in yourself or others. Love each other, forgive one another, and make 2012 the best year ever. IP: Logged |

Yes, the holidays is a respite for me from the trivial. As a Sag I love the big picture and I think during the holidays, Humanity gets in touch with what really matters -for a change. IP: Logged |

YES, 2012 = best year ever.I feel the same. I believe that. It is a time of Love and Reflection. When I was making each individual Christmas Card I enjoyed reflecting on each relationship with each person close to me.... that is why I like making the cards too. I've seen a lot of kindness these holidays, a lot of people have helped me with the kids at the shopping centre, just strangers helping me unpack, move my cart, this happened three times on three different days. The feeling lingers and you just want to pass on the help to someone else. It really puts you in an amazing mood and lifts the energy. IP: Logged |

I wonder how Jesus would deal with "Trolls".I've never been one, but have mud wrestled with a couple of them here throughout the years. Would he start witch hunts? Start threads about them? Get in with the cliquy gossipy crowd and make fun of them or make them feel as outcasts? Tar and feather them? Talk sh!t to feel better about himself at Christmas time? What in God's name would Jesus do?..... hmmm.... IP: Logged |

Ignore them when they are unkind. In that state of mind their minds and hearts are closed. Be sincerely kind to them when they are kind. Do not hold a grudge, be kind when they are. There will always be trolls and haters. One person's enemy is another person's friend. We cannot each please everyone. He knew that too well.

It is a good question. In many cases, He told his disciples to wipe the dust off their feet and keep walking. In other cases, he loved the unlovable. However, I think people had to WANT to change i.e want to come to Him. Anyway, my doctrine may not be right, as applied to trolls ------------------ Passion, Lust, Desire.

In general, Jesus said to forgive those who wrong us practically unlimited numbers of times, just as God forgives...and to humble ourselves (which He exemplified when He washed the feet of His disciples)...and not to resist evil...but there was also the issue of the moneychangers in the temple. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."
