Black Friday

The biggest shopping day of the year is named Black Friday, so named because retail stores are supposed to make enough profit to end the year in the "black" . Yesterday an employee at a Wal-Mart store was trampled to death by frenzied shoppers.I really have to ask, is a few dollars bargain worth a life?
Feed the greed machine, I guess. So now we have a new twist, called Cyber Monday. At least no one will be physically hurt at the virtual malls. Though you do have to watch out for scams, identity thieves etc.in those virtual malls.

in the news

a local hospital couldn't find the body of a stll born infant. i have never heard of something like this happening. how unutterablely sad. the parents must have been doublely grieved by this. i pray they find comfort for their saddeness. i hope the hospital finds the baby's body soon so this nightmare ends for the family.

Good Friday

Today is Good Friday.It is a day to contemplate redemption a solomn time for many christrians. I find myself thinking about forgiveness and what that means to me.When someone does something that hurts you, there are a few ways to respond. Usually the first response, for me at least, is anger followed closely by thoughts of revenge. But I find I'm expending more energy staying angry and vengeful than I can spare. It has hurt me more to hang on to the hurts than it hurts the other person who may not even realize what they've done.So how do you let go of the hurt? I have not found an adequate way of doing that. I try to forgive but I know have not because the hurts still live in my mind. I know that forgiveness doesn't mean that you condone an other's behavior and really you can't 'fix' anyone else, they are responsible for their own behavior. So why forgive? Is it a way to peace within your heart? Is it a duty you must perform as the bible says or you will end up in the hot place after death? I would guess it's in order to find peace within that you forgive. It's more about letting go of your need to hang onto the hurts.
I am watching Diane Sawyer's special on prostitutes tonight and I wonder who will take care of these people? Who will make sure they are safe and cared for? Why are the women arrested but not their not their male clients or the pimps? And why don't these documenteries talk about the male prostitutes?
And when the women who was caught in adultry was brought before Jesus, did He condem her
