I'm tempted to give two replies to this, each is vastly different. The first is to say, not, "there's always a reason," but more a don't abandon God just because things are hard. This may seem bad it's no reason to loose faith now, because you can't only love God when things are good. And just because things are bad doesn't mean that He's not there, or that He doesn't love you. You never know, He may have a lot of sympathy, but sometimes Things need to be Learned. (such as not abandoning faith simply because things are Not Good) The other is to echo Death and say, THERE IS NO JUSTICE. THERE IS ONLY ME. But that's because my views on religion and belief are bipolar at best. Choose whichever one you like, but please choose the one that makes you happier.
On the whole, in a geological time line per se, it hasn't happened at all (I don't know if that's more depressing or not 0.o). We all like being whiny every once in a while. Cuddles with kitties and boys help.
Well, duh, isn't that kind of a given? It's been raining here for the past couple days and I've been wanting to skive off of work and stay at home to drink hot cocoa on the couch with the cats and watch monty python. But then, there wasn't a Lavonne to snuggle, so I was good and went to work*sigh*
I know! I have been missing my Opal-snuggles time lots! Maybe I can con my parents into getting me home for a weekend or something... on the pretense of helping clean... and you know... hang out with you for some of it.
I can't offer any guidance, but *hugs* If you ever want to hang out and be distracted, or hang out and do morphology, or anything whatever, let me know.
Ahhhhhhhh PCOS. I used to think that I had that. And then I realized that I don't really care if I do, but that it's a convenient excuse for being fat. And I'm at a much higher risk for fibroid tumors anyway (wheeee genetics), so meh.
And I've always liked my view of God as "pretty uninvolved." He doesn't really go around curing people, what with the cancer and the AIDS and the Parkinsons and all that fun shit. I could go on and on and piss you off with my fatalistic view of that God fellow, but I'll restrain myself for once.
I looooooooooove you! And yeah, it's always hard to love/believe in God when things are tough and you're depressed. I offer you my love and many many hugs.

I have decided that I have to live near you so we can sit around drinking tea and watching Monty Python... and making things like corsets and stuff...

Yeah... I might take you up on the hanging out... getting homework done would be a good thing... and distractions are always welcome...

Hanging out can be both fun and productive. Just let me know if you ever wanna.

Tired of "there's always a reason"? How about this quote from some dead guy named Aeschylus: "Wisdom comes alone through suffering."
Believe it or not that's helped me in the past. :x

*Hugs* I miss you too!
