It sort of has to do with the pornography issue, in that it concerns infidelity without actual intercourse, but is actually "emotional affairs". If you've done this topic fully already and seen this blog, or the book referenced before, then great! but if not, then I wanted to pass it along to you. I remembered that in the old post, someone remarked how her best friend was a man not her husband and that they were fine (it really struck me, because at the time I was wondering if I was just friends or in an emotional affair at the time). The link is: http://www.flowerdust.net/2006/05/17/emotional-affairs/ Lots of discussion follows.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work at sharing your good thoughts and links with good thoughts! - "Old Fashioned Lady"Michelle Maddockshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11538541037181074116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32444916.post-69089248608200813052008-06-15T19:42:00.000-05:002008-06-15T19:42:00.000-05:00Thanks for the great links!Thanks for the great links!sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05439305584795731097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32444916.post-72774442440674682302008-06-15T13:59:00.000-05:002008-06-15T13:59:00.000-05:00Hi Jess!

It is a blessing being in a body where children are a part of the body and not ushered off to their own classes. It has been amazing to me, as my children have grown up in this church, to see how much they have learned from being in the service at such a young age, and also how little children learn the discipline of sitting in church. when people come to visit our church they are amazed at what they see in the family sitting together, are impressed/struck by it...but then what amazes me is that even though they are really encouraged by it, many times they will not come because they really don't want to mess with their kids during the service. They want that time alone. Oh...but what they miss out on!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07075313642309338412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32444916.post-81524840458475517522008-06-11T21:37:00.000-05:002008-06-11T21:37:00.000-05:00Since a mutual friend introduced me to your blog, ...Since a mutual friend introduced me to your blog, i thought we'd be friends if we ever met... we have similar ideas about family life, we read the same books, I'm also about to go overseas, etc, but now that I know you like the Office, i know you are a kindred spirit after all :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32444916.post-22720537227635628722008-06-11T15:26:00.000-05:002008-06-11T15:26:00.000-05:00Great links!

I generally fall towards the conservative side and I don't think government aid to the poor is working very well or all that Christian of an approach and I've been writing about it. YET I am have a massive plank in my eye as I am on state insurance for my pregnancy and I'm on WIC too. I don't know exactly what to think sometimes. Maybe it's God's way of keeping me compassionate. I'm still not voting for Obama though. <BR/><BR/>As far as feeling judged, I don't really feel that from the cashier or whoever. I think a lot of people are ultra sensitive when they are on food stamps or whatever, waiting and expecting for someone to judge them. I would prefer for us to have enough money to cover our own costs but I think that's a pretty normal desire.Catherine R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17270456247724661532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32444916.post-22875805212507310842008-06-11T10:22:00.000-05:002008-06-11T10:22:00.000-05:00LOL, Megan, yeah we read about that the other day....LOL, Megan, yeah we read about that the other day.
