Obviously...the interpretations are different for everyone, though the words are the same...
My understanding is that though God is not pleased with divorces, his mercy allows for such things...and that not all marriages are made in "heaven"...
Clayton has ditched me tonight for the Superbowl...
However...I have a new puppy and he is absolutely adorable...but he's been a bit naughty....and my 12 week old puppy is almost 30lbs...so far i've called him everything but his name....
I am coming to realize that the "image" we have in our heads of that "one" great love...can be found...but not all in one person necessarily...
And as someone else said...as you mature...some of those qualities of your "image" may no longer be as important...and other things take its place...
I have said before...I do not believe in "soulmates"...and i would not put the pressure on someone to live up to that role as "soulmate" nor would i allow someone to do that to me...the only person who has claim to my "soul" is my Maker...
Most people are looking for the "ONE" great love...complete with ALL the qualities they think they want... What if you were meant to "experience" some of those qualities with many different "loves"...but settle down for life with just one...would that work for anyone??
I do expect them NOT to sample food off my plate.... I would appreciate if they wore socks with their shoes on the first date... Do NOT regale me with stories of how amazing their ....is

Well I have a new member in my family....my girls got a puppy...he's a bull mastiff so "puppy" seems wrong to call him...he's 12 weeks old and weighs 25lbs right now...
But he has an adorable face...and he's up early...
My cat has packed her bags...she is not having any part of this...
I have had my share of "long distance" relationships...and when i say long distance i mean further than i can drive in a couple of hours.....
It goes without saying that these relationships require much more effort on both parts to keep it going...that and a strong committment to one another...but that doesn't mean it cannot work..
The one couple that i know from on this site that has remained together the longest (and is still together) he lives here in Ontario and she in the States...so that should at least give some hope that it can indeed work...
Its just a matter of "weeding out the wacko's"....
LOL...that was my reply to someone in the int'l forums...
These actually are my nails...I just have a coat of acrylic put on them to keep them strong...
Because like you Rose...the "housefairy" doesn't come to my place...ummmmm...that would be me cleaning, cooking, vacuuming, scrubbing...washing dishes...(*sigh*)
Once again Rose...mom's from the same "old" school....
Nothing "unfamiliar" came into our house without us getting the third degree as to where it came from...and that also meant follow up calls to verify information...and no..not once did it ever cross my mind that my mom didn't trust "me" (funny huh?...back then i guess it wasn't all about "us")...all i knew is that it better be the truth coming out of my mouth because i was taking the gamble that she may actually pick up that phone and find out if what i was telling her was the truth....
And once again....back then that was not considered "prying"...it was just one of those things that parents did to make sure you were on your toes constantly!!!
And yes Darren...the suburb that Rose is speaking of is called "Jamestown" and that new rule has indeed been put into effect...
And once again...the government has everything "backassed"...take away our rights to "discipline" children....then make us accountable when they do wrong...
The only ones i don't like is the ones where i've gotten up gotten ready for work, the kids off to school...and then opened my eyes to realize i'm not even out of bed yet...now i'm late...AND i have to do it all again!!
I wait for this "time" that i allow myself all month...I look forward to it...because i can only budget myself enough to have it done once a month...so when it doesn't turn out...it upsets me...
There is a lot of things i do without so that i can have the money to do things like this...but i love "pretty nails"..
Does Divorce Exist In the Bible??
Obviously...the interpretations are different for everyone, though the words are the same...My understanding is that though God is not pleased with divorces, his mercy allows for such things...and that not all marriages are made in "heaven"...
