i used to cut, and so i know and understand what you're talking about. first of all... thank you. thank you for being such an understanding sibling. thank you for wanting her to get better. thank you for trying to help. i guarantee you, this will help her a lot. most of what helped me to get over cutting is learning how to get the pain out with ways which are not physical. i know this totally sounds cheesy, but venting really works. allowing her to have a place to go is really the key thing. and whether she takes advantage of that - well, that's where personal growth comes from. a journal, a pet, a sibling, anything will do. thank you for being open to her. keep letting her know that you're there. even tho she may push you away, she really will be happy to kno sumbody luvs her. and tell your parents. get her to a doctor who she's comfortable with. medicine does help. take it from one who knows. thank you, good luck, and best wishes *~*jEnNi*~*

wuteva. i think we can learn sumthing from all this: don't accidently ship gifts for your mom to china." okay that made nooooo sense wutsoeva. hey i only got 2 hours sleep last night

it was definitely very cool. but i had a migrane going into it and... well... fill in the blanks. but i was totally scared the natives totally freaked me out like no other. ya, it is sweet how she learns to love him, and you seriously feel for king kong. you start to like him. i love how it totally divides nature and civilization... there is hardly any talking in the nature section - all animation and music. it was great, except for the splitting headache.

okay that is way cool. i'm so serious. sounds like soooo much fun. i don't think i've worn anything but flip-flops for a whole year. im a cali girl alright!

awww that is sooo sweet. its still 70 degrees where i live, with little rain, nobody has any christmas lights up, and in general it still feels like october. but i'm glad for you guyz

holy crap that just makes things totally worse. but it's not like the mormon church is trying to tick them off. which, by the article, is how it sounds percieved. poor guys

i dont think there really can be just one thing. everything holds everything together. it's all its own support. however, the book of mormon is the keystone to the lds religion, which is very important. without the bom, joseph smith wouldn't happen and everything would totally still be a mess. because the bom is true, everything else sometogether

i have no clue!!! if there was like a hurricane where i am and we have absolutely NOTHING, i know i would like some of that stuff if i was dying... but not like used needles or something. i don't know i'm trying to find a positive! lol

is exaltation the highest degree, or just the celestial kingdom?

his challenge is for us, after we read, study, and ponder the book of mormon, that we can pray about it and ask if it is true. and he says if we really pray about it with real intent, craving the truth, it will be revealed to us that the book of mormon is true. and it's certainly happened to me, many times

so you're not going to actually say anything nice to the guy? wow. hey i'm glad that you're interested in the church. you'll be in my prayers.

oh my gosh that's so gross. well, i guess they wanted to help... if they had nothing, they would take it...

thank you VERY much. that's exactly what i thought. case closed. lol

lets start it at the beginning of the next year, because i'm still finishing up this current year's BOM challenge. but i definitely vote BOM

that is so awesum that you're deeply considering joining the LDS church. let me tell you - i luv it and it's brought nothing but joy into my life. yes, i think if you can get your mother's permission, the Lord would prefer that. i will be praying for her heart to be softened by the Spirit. just keep on trying and enduring to the end. that's all the Lord asks for. have you had the missionaries over to your house before? i don't know if your mother would be okay with this, even if you say it's casual. i've known people who have taught at other people's houses with the missionaries and it's amazing to see how the parents gradually ease into it. good luck with that. like i said, you'll be in my prayers!
