Manipulation ...

Is a terrible thing. Manipulating people to get love and attention screams that there is something wrong inside of a person. What that person needs is to know that they are loved and accepted for WHO they are not for who they make themselves out to be. There is a longing inside each of us to be loved, accepted and cared for. Some people lack that and so they search it out. They say things that will make others love them, accept them, care for them, even go out of their way for them. It feeds something inside that deeply desires love and craves attention in a personal way. What they really need to know is that they can be loved without the lies, without the mask of who they really are. Somewhere they have been wounded to think that they cannot be loved for who they are ... and they were lied to for that. Each of us IS LOVED for who we are, right where we are ... by God. Sometimes though that love doesn't seem like enough because it is not tangible. So we reach out for someone who will tangibly love us ... however for those playing this game ... it is never enough. The rabbit hole always gets deeper and deeper, until we find our worth in CHRIST.

Please be careful of NICOLE. Have you noticed she hasn't given any information on her treatment? I had an aunt who died of colon/liver cancer and there is treatment. And your eyes don't yellow ... her first post until much later on when death is knocking. Don't mean to be crude but I don't like when people take cancer and pull on peoples strings. I've lost so many people to cancer and it hurts. Emotionally it is draining to watch someone you love deal with it to hurt with them and for them. She's pulling on peoples heart strings and it's just not fair to them. Why do people buy into the lie?

Using the Blog world to lie

I HATE HATE HATE it when people lie. Now it seems people are using the blog world to concoct stories to promote their need for love and affection. It is sick and it is emotional rape. It is sad that people use the net to lie. If these folks were for REAL then they would find someone face to face that they could connect with, pray with, and allow God to use in a tangible way. There are some totally LEGIT people on the blog world but there are a few who make things up to gain love and attention. that is how they get their 'fix'. It's a sad, sad world.
