all right. i’ve pretty much reached rock bootom in my life. it only hurts so much because i know what it feels like to be at the top.or do i? my life up until know i have been trying to find happiness in everything. i was happy with people, places and things.in fact, i was never really unhappy.until a thougth came into my head. i knew it was not mine, i never thought of it and never would think of it if it hadn’t come from somwhere else; from somebody else. The thought was the knowledge of knowing that God really does exist.and my eyes were opened. all of a sudden everything that i thought made me happy were only selfish addictions that i didn’t know were addictions, and didn’t think were selfish. i am sick of society being controlled and influenced by Satan and his demons. i am sick of sitting in school all day and learning about things that dont really matter(i dont think Saint Peter will ask me to find the hypotenuse of a right triangle) i am sick of giving in to the evil temptations that creep into my mind when i think all is fine and dandy.So come on people! walk the walk with me. lets do exactly what Jesus told us to do; and is telling us to do at this very moment. Even if the whole world said they would smash each of my testicles off with a hammer if i did not conform to their ways…then they could just swing away, because the only things in this life that are worth losing, are the things that God gave us that we dont even knoe we have until our eyes are opened
 
Oh, you are so right where you need to be. I know because I was there.

Welcome to the rest of your life. I promise you, it gets better.

And protect those family jewels. God might ask you to use them some day.

you see, none of this would be true if we did not experience the same thing; just because a liitle girl fantasises about unicorns; doesnt mean we all will. thanks.
 
Hang in there, this shall soon pass-things will get better, honest-just put your faith and trust in Jesus and He will get you where you need to go in life. And please don’t do anything rash-I now feel like I am talking to my own teenager-oh boy! Sounds like you need some extra reassuring and hugs-and encouragement-yes-math questions can and does not make sense yet just try to wing it-again-this shall soon pass (math isn’t my strong subject-lol 🙂 :knight1::harp::hug3:
 
I know the feeling. I hit bottom Advent 2009 seeking to satisfy a carnal pleasure. I went into rehab for it, where I prayed the rosary everyday. The first day I got home I found something that I had written in 3rd grade that was a major sign to start actively discerning the priesthood again. In June I got an overwhelming confirmation at Mass. I soon felt a pull (rather strongly) toward living under the Rule of St. Benedict. I’ve filled out all the application stuff for Mount Angel Abbey, but after getting more honest with myself (something came up in the psych eval) it was decided that I wasn’t quite ready to start postulancy.

As for the addiction, I didn’t feel truly free until I acknowledged the demonic element and got a booklet of spiritual warfare prayers. I’ve been invited to a Crusillo retreat, and am very excited to be going. Christ is the cure to all of our ills.

Hey whoa there pardner, those little nut thingies were given to you by God. They are precious. It sounds like you are about to stand up for what’s right in the world, after seeing through all the bulldust. Well, mate, you is gonna need 'em! God put you into this temporal world and maybe learning how to find the hypotenuese of a triangle is just part of having to live in this world. St. Peter might not ask you to find a right angle, but Jesus might ask you did you live a right life. Living rightfully also includes doing what you have to do, your duties, like your homework. Sounds to me like you are up for setting the world right. It takes gonads to do that, so look after 'em. 👍
 
Ask yourself this simple question: Why am I here (i.e. Why did God create me)?
When you are able to give the right answer, then you can live accordingly. God gave you a purpose and living for that purpose will enable you to focus on that; and fulfilling God’s will for you creates a deeper happiness. Need praying though to discern. Keep praying…for me it was this (I constantly do throughout the day, and I’m surprised I got married!!!) that made me always secure in the knowledge that God was always watching (and caring for) me. 👍

Hope this helps…

PS-- the answer is : to know, love and serve God.
 
look guys, forget about the smashing the nuts with the hammer thing. all i was trying to say was will you suffer for what you know is true or what others want you to think is true?

Thank God you have seen the light. The hammer thing was just too cruel to contemplate. Anything but that…🤷

Otherwise, stand me up against a wall if you must, but I stand by what I believe and to hell with the rest!!
 
You may have to know to calculate the hypotenuse if you go into engineering, architecture, design, etc. If you want to build something or if you want to fix something at your house, or if you want to calculate the something regarding your home or a project you are doing, you might need this.

Sorry, but I love math. Knowledge is a good thing. Geometry is especially fun. It is like a big puzzle.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 !!

If you want to learn something very interesting about math, search “Fibonacci”. It will give you a whole new appreciation for math and God and creation.
