Feelings

 Ever have a specific feeling about something and you wished it wasn't real? Kind of like an intuition of some sort. You never know what will happen exactly, but you do know that something must happen. All because your gut tells you so. Gut feelings are something unique aren't they. These feelings have a way of making you feel ill, even sick to your stomach for a time. There doesn't seem to be any other way about it. I don't know how else to explain it. I wish I had a way of discerning these feelings from other things in my life. But I don't think I am able to at this present moment in time. So many things would be nice if I could figure them out. But I can't.

There are so many thoughts processes a person can go through before they are able to land on the right one. It doesn't quite make sense to me most of the time though. I wish it did. I wish something made sense to me, but I am unable to actually figure anything out at the moment. Is it just plain nonsense to me? Do I not understand all that is coming about? There are so many things wrong with this life, if feelings are part of it all then I am lost just like the rest of humanity. I don't think anyone is able to completely understand everything that goes on in this life. That would be too much to ask for. But what can you do about it. Not much I'm afraid. Not much at all.

If everyone knew how to react to the feelings they feel, I think this world would be a lot different. Half the time people don't understand or know how to react to what they feel. It's like it's impossible to make a distinction between reality and something fake. Those feelings, those emotions carry a ton of weight. It can't be expected for people to fully grasp or understand how to process them all at once. There are simply too many of them.

So many things are nice to haves in this life. If we go chasing after all of the nice to haves, I don't think anything would get accomplished. You have to go after the necessary parts of life first, then maybe go after the nice to haves. It doesn't mean you have to go after dessert before the main dish. There are so many impossible odds stacked against you. None of it makes sense to me. Go after that which is important first, then tackle the less important things in life.

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?
