One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said, "My son, the battle is between 2 "wolves" inside us all. One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "Which wolf wins?"
The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."

I have been trying to figure out what everybody been thinking!
That will drive about anybody crazy. !!!

Oh. Well I was on the wrong track, but that makes more sense. And very true.
Actually, thinking about your post, it's funny because sometimes I mentally warm up with boxing gloves before I come in here. I enjoy this place better when I do that, strangely.

This was written on the hub of a writer recently: "I'm in touch with my feelings – maybe a tad too much, seeing as I can write on command about them".Sort of implies that this is not a good thing....Why would this be bad? I really don't think there's any such thing as being in touch...

How many verses in the bible are there that talks about and describes the Rapture.And when was it written.... Lets just assume (Yea I know) that it was written around 55 AD. It might have said that it hasn't happened yet! So we know that it hadn't happen by the year 55 AD....
