What am I to do if a man kills my family and I am approached by Christians? More specifically, we are both approached by them. I am told that I must forgive and let go of the malice in my heart, any thought of revenge, in order to not go to hell and to receive salvation. This man, this murderer, is told that all he has to do is repent to go to heaven. It seems to me that the victim not only loses his family, but also loses his right to go to heaven simply for being human. But surely God will forgive a man his malice against one so evil. But if the evil man repents? Then is the victim now hating an innocent, a righteous man?
I'm feeling burnt out, tired, glum. Winter, short days, dark. I don't enjoy spending time with people during this season, no where near as much at least. Can't spend more than a few hours with them. The weather's always not quite right, more so than usual. Every time I close a door or do something requiring any energy, I feel angry, feel compelled to slam the door or stomp my feet like a child having a tantrum, yet never do. It would be embarrassing and not worth the trouble. I feel like my friends are somehow inadequate during this season. Not quite feeling what I am feeling, not quite in sync like usual. Oh well. Winter.
Treat everyone like they've got something you want, and never take anything.
Good night.
