Suckin wind

And then there were two. The trinity dissolved on Christmas day. My favorite; the one who stole my heart, gave it back on our Lord's natal day. This was done with her kids just 15ft away. Now I'm sure they didn't hear. Yet it allowed for no discussion. I didn't get to say goodbye. We spent 3 nights a week together for the last 6 weeks and now nothing.

She doesn't want to be uncomfortable (in an email) so no communication. I see her on the IM. A timid hello...followed by the most resounding silence. She claims to be a fundamental Christian. It's all wrapped up in a nice neat package. She's saved, good to go. No need to treat people with loving kindness. No need to step outside of your comfort zone to spare the feelings or ease the hurt of another of God's created.

I'm pretty sure Christ would not have responded quite this way. Maybe I haven't digested the bible and marked all the spots that reinforce my viewpoint. So secure in her exclusionistic boxed up world. If that's really the way to be a Christian, I'll have no part of it.

You'll never see this Peggy, so your comfort is ensured. I hope you find someone as narrow minded as you to navigate your lives together through the narrow paths in your over sized SUV. The world outside your box is vast and beautiful and in need and hurting. But never mind eh. We'll attend to it.

Peace to you
