Hey @Former-Member, @Former-Member, @Former-Member, @Former-Member, and dear @PeppiPatty,
Christmas is my favourite times of year. Just love sending Christmas cards and parcels to everyone. I love that it is supposedly a time where man does good will to other men. I went to a Christmas Barbecue this year at my home Bible study group. It was awesome. We each brought a plate of food and the food was delicious. Nothing beats that we are all family, brothers and sisters in Christ.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Fluffy and I are cosy together and love the Christmas festivities. Watching lots of Christmas movies. I loved 'Bad Santa' very funny.

My cat fluffy sends her love.

Dear @BambiFawn
I so love your name and your fresh attitude.
I just wrote something about myself on introduce myself. I wrote this:
After many many years of thinking about selfharm.....I self harmed with having unusual relationships with suffering people. I would 'feel,' them injecting drugs and sort of co dependently attached myself to some suffering individuals in the community. It took me many years of therapy to understand that my self harming came from my Mum. I know it's an individual thing, but this was my journey.....it was a very very individual journey for me. It took me many years to understand my own dynamics and to rip myself away from harmful people.
Phew, I have never written about this,
I cannot believe I wrote this truth.
......................................................................................................................................................................
Yesterday, the Pastor from my church came over and spent some time with Mr g and me. We were talking about The book Of Job. I understood that Job; had these situations happen to him and he only cursed himself, he didnt curse God.
His friends came over to lecture him by saying" You must have done something wrong in God's Eyes, here is how to fix yourself.
Job answers, I want to confront God and ask him and God Appears and tells his friends off for saying 'You must have done something wrong for these terrible things to happen to you."
God says that Job was right in not berating him but he says " These things happen because he is GOD. And gave Job twice more than what he had before.
........................................................................................................................................................................
Self harming is such an individual thing isn't it?

Yes it is very true &
brave
what you wrote @PeppiPatty a unique form of self harm. Just a bit similar to me. Thanks for walking with me these last few years. I am proud of all the quality friends I have here on this site.
Beautiful @BambiFawn @Former-Member
We are singing a Christmas Blessing by Stopford and others things tomorrow.

I smiled at the thought of being a scallywag. Lovely compliment. @PeppiPatty
@Dear Loopy is no more my Peppi.
I also wonder about @hiddenite and others.
My language was much more tight and formal and even tough and bolshie when I first posted. Like a snakeskin I needed to shed a lot of the naked raw pain. Just get the story out of me.
You and @Mazarita @Faith-and-Hope @Former-Member and lots of other posters helped soften me up.
I had a terse tone and was a bit confrontational, a prickly old dragon maybe. How dare the world not care about my loved ones. At least in this corner of the world that is changing and people are caring.
I am coping with my dead cat. He is in a box in the front hall. Can it wait til after boxing day or is that pushing it too long?
You are gorgeous and encouraging @Former-Member
A very different style to me. I tend to be earthier but vive le difference.
