When things are good......Who do you thank?



I believe that God exists due to miracles I have privey to.
I did not always believe.

When things are bad I pray. When things are good. I aknowledge His existance in my life and praise the miracles that I see.

Good bad or ugly. It is all part of life. I live it, except it, love it.

I'm an athiest (surprise):wink:

When things are bad, I try to do my best to get through them. I do whatever I can to make them better. I have turned to family and friends on many occasions.

When things are REALLY bad, a terminal illness or a death, I cry all the tears in me, and then I try to make myself available to those suffering the most.

Life deals good and bad to all people. Oddly some things we thing would devastate us, are not seen as bad at all, to the people who have to handle them.

So Bad and Good is simply relavent to the strength, acceptance and optimism of a person.

There will alway be those worse off than I, and there will always be those that seem to be in better shape than I, but only 'I' can change that, by changing what I have the ability to change, even if it's just my perspective.

So who do I blame when things are bad, if there is no logical souce of the blame, I blame no one. I simply attempt to make it better.

Who do I thank when things are good? Those who have been there to see me thought, Circumstanses at most, MYSELF, if it was my perseverance, hard work, or my attitude that got me to the point of seeing a better day.

I do not call myself atheist but others do. I do not believe in god in the sense taught in the modern religions. I am however spiritual and believe in a spirit of good and evil that eminates from people. We are the creators of good and evil, no other beings are responsible for it. If enough of us are positive and full of light the world would be lit with the light and love. Non-self responsibility, hatred, selfishness, narcissism, etc..... are the "evil". People have all of these qualities inside themselves and choose what to do with them. We are the reason for our successes and failures. Responsibility for what happens in our world is ours alone.flowerforyou

When I pray it is for knowledge, wisdom, understanding, and whatever I need that I do not know that I need...:wink:

Whenever something happens that is good, I often say 'Thank you God' in all sincerity... as I have been taught, and so I believe...

Just not in a personification of God...

thank-you Ferel - I'm happy there are no 'virtual' darts on this website, or I might think you would use them on my picture. laugh laugh

At least you know I'm honest, as I know you are as well. Hope you and your loved ones have a bright and happy 2008.

God is omniscient.

To suggest that I would need to “turn to God” implies that I somehow turned away from him in the first place which I never have.

So for me, the question is moot.

God experiences everything I experience. I'm never alone.

I have my doubts about religion here or there but let me say a little something that happened to me. I am not proud of how things were but this is a moment that I can't forget.

I had a lot of problems growing up and things got worse as I got older.. I wont go into the details but I had bad depression. It got so bad one night that I was hearing voices telling me to kill myself. It wouldn't stop and for some reason I asked God to help and that second it went away and I felt calm.

I don't really know what happened that night but whenever I am really in doubt I think about it and it makes me feel better.

Its just one of those things. I am no saint. I mean for the past few years I haven't even been going to church. I started going again a few months ago. I wanted to wait till I was ready and wanted to go back. I think its hypocritical to go just because you are supposed to.

I believe animals watch over us. Every time I would try to kill myself one of my cats would snap me out of it. If your kind to animals, than they will be kind back. Also I believe in reincarnation because sitting around heaven forever doesn't seem all that much fun. drinker
