"'About five years into my writing career, I confided in Shannon that being an author was no longer bringing me joy. I told her that as my platform grew, so did the number of duties, expectations, demands, favors and requests I received. I admitted that I commonly felt stressed, depleted and used. (This is how I feel about all the comic book artists advertising on my page. Just stop please, all you're doing is stressing me out and zapping my life of joy!_Lumna10) 
          	"'I just want to write messages that help people feel seen and less alone in their struggles—but so much  else is expected of me and those other things are contaminating my joy and purpose.'"_Rachel Macy Stafford. (Same Rachel, I feel the same way as a writer. Newsflash Wattpad followers, I did not join Wattpad to become popular nor did I expect my books to be so popular it took years for people to reach my books and I am still okay with that. Less popular a book starts out the harder it is to be copied onto another website. I am in the writing hobby because it is my Dreamer Girl and I do it for fun; it helps me calm myself down. I never looked for views never asked for comments. And I don't ask for follow backs because I believe a person should have their own choice to be interested or not. But comic book advertisements when I've repeatedly said no are just distressing nuisances._Lumna10.

@Lumna10 
            
            I usually only say hi
            because There are times where people  might not be in the mood to fully chat.
            I also just say hi to make sure if you do ever want to chat, it can considered an open invitation to chat with no issues.

@BrittanyHamm19 I don't know how you noticed this but I didn't tag you and if you are going to tag me please say something other than just hi I have no idea how to add onto the conversation you don't give me lead ons so this is very awkward for me.

          1. 12:00 took my shower.
          2. Put my laundry in the washer.
          3. Ate lunch
          4. Exercise Bike for 5:00 minutes(is in the garage so makes it convenient to get to the street bin.)

          6. Made Hot Chocolate
          7. Unload dishwater while water for hot chocolate was boiling.

"'He that  would live in peace and ease must not speak all he knows nor judge all he sees.'"_Benjamin Franklin. Ironically this actually applies to religions as well. There is a limit to what we should share and when and where to share it. Vulnerability without boundaries is not vulnerability at all. When you overshare as a Christian you help the Devil make other people feel like instant failures unlike and completely opposite of what Leanna Crawford sings in her guitar song called Simple. "The Devil lies and twists the truth makes you think it's all on you but that's far from true; there's no such thing as too far gone with God it really is just that simple."

A Christian who believes in Jesus is to be a Good neighbor, a Good Samaritan like story Jesus told in the bible about the man who didn't expect the man who was robbed to be suspicious or demand he change his ways forcing an ultimatum. While my Christian friends enjoy the prayer books and devotions I have out keep in mind fellow readers I create and publish them infrequently in order to avoid putting myself amongst the too preachy people out there. People who are too preachy turn more non-believers off than it helps. 
          
          This is also biblically based for me the way I write books that deal with Christianity the whole point of becoming a follower of Christ is first and foremost message is. 'Come Just As You Are.' which is literally captured in the bible when Jesus literally calls his disciples forward. That is why in each description of my Christian orientation book this friendly message occurs. "I am a Christian but all non-believers are welcome to these pages. I will not force anyone to believe in anything as that's not what Christianity is about and whether you believe in God and Jesus isn't up to me but your own responsibility. I can't make your mind up for you; it has to be your decision, not mine or any of my fellow current Christians' decisions."
