Is it scriptural?

i'm sure Noah said it at least once, building that ark.

being an arse includes responses such as 'i know it isdifficult now but in a few weeks you'll be over it. people don't just get over things. saying something like that makes you sound like a jerk.



'i could say XYX but instead ... " seriously? you just said it. that means you are not insensitive but just an arse portal because you realize that it insensitive AND SAY IT ANYWAY. just because you can't resist the urge to say something stupid, insensitive and in all likelihood condescending. totally inapropriate.


pointing out that other people suffer worse things is also not ok. you can do nothing about the children in africa right this second, but you can comfort the soul who is sharing his sorrows with you.

Always someone better off and somone worse off. Thats what holy scripture says anyway, i think it means to not get proud whether shadow or ego in that i'm there and i'm it or the opposite of i will never be there and never be it, thats my understanding of it anyhow. Both are likely to alienate others or self, with despair.

can i be an arse portal too, i know i am sometimes i don't need to ARSE K. LOL for my arseyness. + for my stubborn mule @ times or something like that anyhow. I get so stubborn sometimes that i pretty much wan't to cry or destroy my brain cells. when i should pray for myself and the person i have just kicked in the face with my stubborn mule. My prayer life outside of holy mass is the worst it has ever been since i converted 9 years ago
