This was such a chilling but necessary read. I loved the line, "The mind protects itself first and asks questions later." I think it's so true not just for this but for all things.
thank you for trusting me with that. carrying guilt for years is heavy and its not easy to even put it in words like this. really glad the post could lighten it a bit for you
Exactly. If you believe you belong in the dark, you stop looking for a handle. The door only reveals itself when you're finally ready to face how much time has passed on the outside.
To change the operation of understanding and pretend they do not know the answer to assist you, but they’ve had the answer the entire time but they refused to help an individual in the way they find non amusing or attractive .
…. because they already got caught showing one the wrong way and couldn’t possibly get caught showing another the right way.
Anyone that leaves a female out to figure something out, knowing she is a victim of tremendous amount of abuse is actually an embarrassment not only for the church but for humanity as a whole, allowing men to
Violate her and not stepping in because it’s a comical act, is even more embarrassing. You have the keys, and you know how to enter, it’s your job as a man to help. This whole woman Empowerment bullshit is actually annoying because God didn’t create humanity that way. Especially for victims.
i think we are talking about two different things. i was not saying victims should be left to fend for themselves, i was talking about the moment someone stops believing they deserve help at all, which is a different problem than someone refusing to give it. what you described, someone with the keys choosing not to open the door, that is its own kind of failure and i am not defending it. i am sorry you have seen that failure up close, it stays with you longer than people realize
keys was a metaphor, not literal, i meant having the ability or knowledge to help someone and choosing not to. and yes i think you are right, this was a misunderstanding more than a disagreement. appreciate you circling back
Everybody reads, talks and speaks differently, it’s one’s own job to learn how to communicate effectively. If one person understands their way of teaching or speaking is not being perceived by another, it is that persons job to find another way to communicate effectively and/or change their way of communicating. That’s the probably with miscommunication.
I think that you can consider this conversation and conflict with the same perception of a bigger issue, but I think that it is a bit of a misunderstanding.
The bicycle is the perfect engine for the loop. You pedal furiously, burning every ounce of energy just to stay upright and balanced, but the wheels are locked to a track that goes nowhere. It’s the definition of 'trying' while looking completely still to the rest of the world. The breakthrough isn't learning to pedal faster; it's realizing you can just squeeze the brakes and step off.

Hey never mind. They don’t think that someone is just trying to heal cause this is exhausting.
fair point, most people only see the tired part, not the trying part
What about the bicycle part.
