Tonight,I am feeling pretty good.I had a pretty good day today.
The work shift went smoothly.I simply did the required work that I had to do in the time that I had.After eating lunch,I bagged everything and I headed for home.
On the way home,I stopped and got some gas at a nearby gas station.I also visited a friend of mine who owns a record store in my hometown and I gave him some business by buying a couple of record albums.I headed straight home after that.
When I got home,I relaxed for a bit and took it easy.I needed to sit down for a while before helping my mom with an errand.My mom needed to do some more grocery shopping before the holiday starts.That way,she has some stuff in the house for the holiday.
While my mom was grocery shopping,I decided to go to the local Wal-Mart to buy another movie.But I changed my mind and decided to go back to the store and check up on my mom to see if she was done with her grocery shopping.
After we got home and I unloaded the car,I went back out to get a 1/2 gallon of ice cream at another supermarket in the area because my mom forgot to pick up one at the store that she was shopping at.I headed back home to wait for dinner to get done.
After eating,I finished my personal PC work.It was quite a lot of e-mails to read and I am glad to have gotten it done.I am now relaxing and I am anticipating the upcoming holiday weekend.Overall,a pretty good day.
Regarding my SSA struggles,there are being put to the test at the moment.I have been hearing in the news recently about the Same-Sex Marriage bill being presented to Congress and to the governer of my state,David Paterson.This is really going to be a very nerve wracking thing.I am hoping that the bill gets thrown out by Congress.If they pass the bill,which I hope does not happen,I hope that President Barack Obama vetoes the bill and that it doesn't become law.Not only that,I am also hoping that David Paterson doesn't make it legal here in New York state.That would be the "ULTIMATE" death knell in both the state of New York and the country.Same-Sex Marriage is not only WRONG,UNETHICAL & INNAPPROPRIATE,but the marital arrangemnet as a whole was not meant for this purpose.Marriage is a sacred vow and bond between a man and a woman,which is the way our creator intended.He never intended for marriage to be used in such a manner where two people of the same sex could become like a man and a women.Instead of it being "holy matrimony", it will be "unholy matrimony" and it would also be a travesty if this bill would ever get passed.If our founding fathers would ever have heard this going about,they'd turn over in their graves.They would have never intended for this to come to pass.Not only that,it was Adam and Eve who were made,NOT Adam and Steve.I am just hoping that this bill will either be thrown out or simply vetoed.Again,marriage is between a man and a woman and it should be kept that way.Again,it is the way that the creator intended marriage to be because he created the marital arrangemnet to be this way.I am going to need some support,prayers and encouragement because my SSA issues will be put to the test.Anger will also be aroused because it makes me angry that they are considering this and even trying to get this passed into law.Once again,I am hoping that this doesn't happen and I hope that marriage is kept the way it was originally intended.Again,I am going to need prayers,support and encouragement.I am hoping that I can get some of that.Thanks in advance for all of that.
Tomorrow is Good Friday.I have the day off and I have no plans at the moment.But whatever I do,I hope that it gives me positive benefits.I will be singing over the weekend as usual.I am hoping that my night of entertaining goes well.
That was my day today and my hopes for the start of the holiday weekend ahead.FJ

It's hard to manage our own struggles when the culture around is to advocating a strong voice for us to "give in." Keep persevering! Have a good Easter weekend.

FJ — I found your blog through your recent comment on Jay's "Adventures of a Christian Collegian." Your struggle to live as the Lord would have you is admirable. It seems, from what I have seen here, that you and I are in general agreement on what is right for one who experiences SSA.

Your desire for people to support you in that struggle calls to mind the Catholic organization Courage, which attempts to help men support one another in their struggle to live holy lives with God's grace. I am guessing that you are not Catholic, based on what you said about your father; and I don't know if Courage restricts itself to Catholics. But I think it is worth checking out. Their website is linked on my blog. I strongly encourage you to check it out — http://couragerc.net/

There is a chapter in Buffalo. The contact person is Fr. George Kerwin, OMI (716) 885-3767. If what you see on the website looks like something that would be helpful to you, I'd encourage you to give him a call.

I hope this helps. May God bless you in your efforts to be faithful to his call in your life.

Happy Easter.

So you want to restrict other people's human rights because they make you uncomfortable? And you have the nerve to make pronouncements on "ethics"? Are you always this arrogant? Are you always this wrong?
