Not sure what exactly it is, but it looks like an oversized moth. It’s huge…

He was on my house the other night. Click to enlarge, if you’d like.

This was my son and his friend at the San Diego zoo.

I believe in forgiveness. However, where do you draw the line? If someone does something wrong/bad… and it happens multiple times – do you continue to forgive?? Yes, I believe you do have to continue to forgive – but what do you do about the repentance? Do you break ties with someone who continually screws up?

I wonder what I should say to this person. Of course, at the moment isn’t a good time to talk to them- because I’m not in a good mood and I don’t like talkin’ serious when I’m in a bad mood. I don’t want to say things I really shouldn’t say. I know, or think, this person will screw up, again. I mean, track records do mean something, I think. I am seriously struggling with this. Ya see, I’ve ask this person straight-up a few times… many times, actually – if they were “havin’ issues, again” and they’d plainly say no. So, not only did they screw up – they’ve been lying to me. Nothing makes my blood boil more so than a liar.

I think what bothers me most is this person said they were a believer and had been saved. I wonder, if this person is really saved – would this person be screwin’ up so much? Then I wonder if I’m out of line for even thinkin’ about it. I did notice a change in this person – a while back, when they said they became saved – but it appears it was short lived. I could do the same things this person is/has been doing but I have no desire. I know right from wrong and never could “commit” myself to doing something I knew was wrong. I praise God for that because I know it’s through Him that I am strong enough to not do things I shouldn’t.

I do forgive. I will forgive. I just cannot seem to forget. No matter how hard I try, how long it’s been, or how much I pray I-j-u-s-t-c-a-n-’-t-s-e-e-m-t-o-f-o-r-g-e-t. I’m hurt by this. I’m affected. I’m bothered. I’m shaking and I don’t know why. I’m let down. I’m mad. I’m very upset. I just do not understand some people and their actions.

Yeah, this is vague but I respect the privacy of others lives and didn’t really want to go to deep into the subject. I just needed to express my thoughts on the matter… I typed this well before it posted – so I hope my mood is better by the time you read this.
