Interesting... it seems that I am flagged to be moderated before my posts can be viewed now? That was quick... lol.

-edit - hmmm, or they are moderating posts that contain certain keywords? Either way, still interesting

Ahhh...but what you can accomplish in 8 posts, it takes others a lifetime

You flatter me... I've deleted more posts than I will ever post again. lol... and the demise of FCF and NFCF took care of the rest of them for me. I'm a man without a past... except in the minds of those who remember me.

So as I am feeling a little drained, I am going to cheat a little and cut and paste something that I wrote in the Obey them thread yesterday, I think it addresses the pendulum thing fairly well.
Mich,

I didn't mean to "sting" you. I was simply making an observation based on posts you had made a little before nFCF came to an end. At that point you actually mentioned the vacillation that had existed in your walk (at that time you were accepting some of the standards and they were of no consequence to you).

I certainly did not intend it to be a flying bomb. My sincerest wishes for your spiritual success and satisfaction accompany this post and that one as well!

Well I can't argue with this! But my problem seems to be that rather than dealing with all this junk, I get tired of feeling "uncomfortable" and try to push myself back into my little box. I am refusing to do that this time, because I want to deal with this and move on!!!

On a side note, you were right that the standards were of no consequence to me, I felt what I felt in my mind, but found it no problem to go along with the status quo. For some reason a breaking point came when I realized that I worried that some people I cared about would be disappointed or upset if I cut my hair, and at the same time was open and above board about my TV habits (Such as my love for Buffy the Vampire Slayer), one day I realized that chances are some people who could care less about my hair, would nevertheless be shocked by my TV habits, and I don't know, it all seemed silly somehow.

The truth is, my "convictions" about these things haven't changed, just my actions.

So you are 4 months ahead at this point. You can lay out until late summer.
