My Reflections (Book) https://www.Writing.Com/main/profile.php/blog/pickmarvilla The illness I have come to hate the most is cancer. I would wipe it from the face of the earth if I could. If I could not get rid of it, I'd at least want a more humane cure than chemotherapy. I hate what I 'have seen it do to people. Sometime, it is hard to think that if the cancer won't kill them the chemotherapy will. I've seen deformations from cancer, holes that should not be in the body and other things. I've seen people I care abo...[Read Full Post] Tue, 08 Sep 2026 22:45:42 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1123634 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1123634 Worst Day Ever I.

I can't really think of any I directly disagree with right off the top of my head. I will say that when I was young and in school, I preferred to free write, and sometimes I still do. I used to enjoy writing research papers but hated all the prep and extra work that went into them not to mention the writing cramps. Those writing cramps made it all too real. I...[Read Full Post] Tue, 08 Sep 2026 22:10:55 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1123628 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1123628 I don't really know when agriculture was born. I would imagine it occurred the week of Earth's creation. I was just thinking to myself today about how everything in the Earth is connected and how we were created. I often connect with and admire Nate and it's creator when I take the dogs out to do there business. I was thinking and wondering to myself what evidence is there that points to a single God/creator of the universe? Can we look at natural d...[Read Full Post] Tue, 08 Sep 2026 21:58:21 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1123627 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1123627 It is quite difficult to pick just one to write about. Unfortunately I have made many mistakes of all shapes sizes and degrees in my lifetime. Thankfully, I have survived them all so far. one thing I have learned is it is more important to learn from my mistakes rather than not make any at all. I have struggled with perfectionism which extended from my upbringing. Mistakes were crucial. You tried to avoid them. They got you into big trouble. I had to learn to e...[Read Full Post] Tue, 08 Sep 2026 21:44:49 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1123624 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1123624 An activity I have recently dropped is Network Marketing. I used to enjoy it. I believe it can work for anyone who is willing and able to put in the work required. It can be fun and very rewarding. The issue I ran into was that I was doing most my business on Facebook. Then Facebook made some changes as it often does that I was not willing to deal with in business. I feel like some lines were crossed that should not have been. I'm not in a position where...[Read Full Post] Mon, 07 Sep 2026 22:40:10 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1123498 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1123498 Ecclesiastes 12;13-14 13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. 14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 1 CORINTHIANS 10:31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all...[Read Full Post] Sun, 06 Sep 2026 23:48:56 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1123337 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1123337 Matthew 16 We start out with the Pharisees and Sadducees trying to find fault with Jesus again. They wanted him to show them a sign, and he rebuked them and left. He told the disciples to beware of the level of the Pharisees and sadducees. They misunderstood and thought he was talking about them forgetting bread, but he was telling them to be careful of the Pharisees and sadducees doctrine. He had another conversation with the disciples about who men and...[Read Full Post] Thu, 20 Aug 2026 23:36:41 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1121538 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1121538 This chapter begins with the scribes and Pharisees accusing Jesus and his disciples of not obeying God's law of not washing their hands before they ate. Jesus points out that they are acting hypocritical and then explains how this is so. He goes on to explain to the rest of the many people observing the conversation that it isn't what we eat that defiles a man. It is what we say that defiles us. He uses this as a teachable moment. After this, the dis...[Read Full Post] Mon, 17 Aug 2026 23:15:10 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1121369 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1121369 It been a while since I have written in here. I read my last entry and am amazed at how much things have changed. It seems like all of my ambitions have went away since then. I am basically focusing on getting the house clean and somewhat presentable. I'm trying to make the most out of not the greatest situation. As a result, I am also battling depression and anxiety. sometimes life circumstances can make you feel trapped. I'm so there. I know God is...[Read Full Post] Fri, 07 Aug 2026 17:24:01 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1120790 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1120790
