How Are You Feeling Right Now?

Talked with the bank. No trouble confirming the transactions and getting access to my card back. But I also wanted to ask about why they keep flagging my very standard transactions as suspicious. But the sound quality was too bad to keep talking.

Now I’m going to be anxious with every transaction with that card. Which is sort of good. Was really thinking the other day, that I’ve made it too easy to buy stuff lately.

That's happened to me a few times. But it also happened a few times where it was actually someone else using the card having used software to guess the number and I didn't buy a cab or laundry in London so they stopped the card and sent a new one. It's horrible when it happens and you have to speak to them etc. But it's probably better than letting someone drain all your money out. Hope it doesn't happen again!

Yeah, I don’t want to complain too much. It is good to know for sure that the bank has a proactive fraud department.

My niece found a place to live and will be leaving today. While it was really nice having her for company I'll also be happy to have my living room back. My cats are probably thrilled that they can have their space back instead of being camped out in my room.

I also signed up for a drawing class 2 Saturdays in January. You don't even have to bring materials, you just pay $20. I'm excited to do something I love and help with my depression which has been troubling lately. I hope everyone here is feeling as well as possible as we ring in the New Year.

I was watching What Dreams May Come last night, where Robin Williams has to save his wife from hell for commiting suicide. I was just thinking it's definitely ironic that he was cast in such a role considering he committed suicide. The movie said that everyone who does it ends up in hell, which I don't personally believe is true. God is much more compassionate than that. Suicides of course may have a hard time forgiving themselves, but I certainly hope God forgives them anyway. It was a very good movie, though. I enjoyed it. Heaven looked incredible, and the wife did end up there at the end.

Do you think there's anything in particular I could point him to? He's been mentally abused all his life, and a heavy burden of guilt has been place upon him, for things which most certainly aren't his fault.
I think it might help if you read the Bible with him and talk to him about it. He's probably going to have questions. Make a plan to read certain passages and ask him what he read. Help him try to understand what he's reading, and encourage him to pray. If he sees you doing it with him, he's more likely to do it himself.

i believe it's possible to go to hell for suicide. but i also think god is merciful. most suicides come from despair so it seems like there is no way out. so obviously the person is suffering from some form of mental health issue, so god can't hold them responsible. although some people who do it calously could go to hell. so to be safe that is one thing on my list of why i can't ctb
