Life Isn't Easy

Let's face it, life isn't easy. It comes and goes, and we are stuck with it. That's the reality of it all now isn't it. No, that wasn't a question. I wish I could fix it all for everyone, but that doesn't seem to be possible. How would I fix it exactly? I'm not sure. It just would be nice to be able to tell everyone that everything will be okay in the end, and have everyone be content. Naturally people would take that in different ways. No one thinks along the same wavelength. It's a thing, I guess.

But life, life isn't easy. There are so many things that we have to conquer in this life. So many things we have to deal with and battle. There isn't one simple solution to any of it. I would like there to be a solution for everything, but there isn't.

I wish I could think differently. I don't believe I am able to think that way though. My brain is stuck in whatever place it's stuck. Such an odd concept to be stuck in some place without being able to move forward or backwards. Obviously, we can't move backwards in time. That would be interesting don't you think? I think it would be.

What would I do if I could move backwards in time. I often wonder what things I could change in my own life. Would I want to change it though? The experiences in my life have made me the person I am today. So maybe I wouldn't want to change anything after all. Yeah, I'm just confusing myself here.

So that's just life. Confusing as it is, it comes and goes and all we can do is wait for it to do whatever it does. I'd like to be able to figure out whatever it is that I can't figure out. That's just life though. It doesn't quite make sense. That is the hard part of it all. The not making sense part. Whatever happens though, we have to continue working forward and see all that is out there.

Suicidal Ideation

 Over the years I've had to deal with suicidal ideation. Those are thoughts of being dead, some more extreme than others. It causes issues for me a lot of the time. It's not an easy thing to talk about at all. Here's what it is: Suicidal ideation ( suicidal thoughts )  are thoughts or ideas centered around death or suicide . Experiencing suicidal ideation doesn’t mean you’re going to kill yourself, but it can be a warning sign.

An Opposition In All Things

Long has been the story told about how there must be an opposition in all things. From the pre-existence there was Satan, Lucifer the Son of the Morning. In the beginning we were with God in his presence. We learned all we could while there. Until the moment we couldn’t progress any more, we were unable to become like God. So, we were given the opportunity to come to Earth to gain a body. A Savior would be provided to atone for our sins enabling us to come back to the presence of God. The idea that an opposition must be in all things comes from 2nd Nephi: For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
