Might take me a while to put it together, but shall definitely share my perceptions of my own "piece of the elephant"!Kerry Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03051264598690393719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253824019426659573.post-18507101363200302562012-09-07T07:30:33.388+10:002012-09-07T07:30:33.388+10:00I enjoyed reading your list of things you don'...I enjoyed reading your list of things you don't believe in. Sometimes its harder - or at least I find it so - to articulate exactly what it is I do believe. I'm looking forward to reading more about your beliefs.Doug Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18027574195522869708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253824019426659573.post-12703331439832495902012-09-06T20:27:20.128+10:002012-09-06T20:27:20.128+10:00Hi Caro - thanks for reading and commenting :)
...Hi Caro - thanks for reading and commenting :) <br /><br />I agree with you that structure can be helpful - the key phrase, for me is exactly how you said it "as long as it facilitates relationships". <br /><br />I'm not sure where you're at with the "black and white" right and wrongs - but the way I tend to see things now is in terms of whether or not they damage relationships. It is wrong to hate. It is wrong to hurt - but every situation is different, so no set of black and white "rules" is ever going to really cover it... does that sit okay with you?<br /><br />PS - the daffodills on my table look absolutely gorgeous! xxxKerry Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03051264598690393719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253824019426659573.post-29402352199272628412012-09-06T19:49:24.397+10:002012-09-06T19:49:24.397+10:00Hi Kerry,
There are numbers of things I don't ...Hi Kerry,<br />There are numbers of things I don't believe anymore, and things I've said and done that now I cringe at. I do believe there are some black and white right and wrongs, though - Jesus gave us a few. Structure is helpful too, as long as it facilitates relationships. Families that eat together tend to have more functional relationships than those that don't. If we never eat with our family - or do whatever we like cos there's no right and wrong - then we're operating in something of a vacuum - and that can really suck!Camillernoreply@blogger.com
