ROLLER COASTER NOW IN MOTION

PLEASE KEEP YOUR HAND INSIDE THE CAR AT ALL TIMES

ENJOY THE RIDE

Here's a message about how to encourage one another under stress, from one of our thread Marines:


Grimmy
 to ransomnote; All

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMMa49tOVNM

To all: Remember, fear, worry, doubt are all contagious. They erode resolve and lead to despair. Despair lends strength to the enemy while it robs your self and your fellows of the same.

Courage is also contagious. Be of good cheer. Be strong in resolve.

Stand-To.

Semper Fidelis.


ransomnote:

Thank you for the pro tip, Marine.

It's natural to be venting stress and to have concerns as we've never been along for the ride when God has done something on this scale, "It's going to be biblical!" We've been through three years of headwinds and finally the eye of the storm is here.

If you need to talk/vent some strong emotions right now, I encourage you to pm one or more persons on the thread who are rested enough to handle others' stress. Some will be fatigued and need a break to come back strong. The trick is to share with people who are not struggling too much to help right now. We have alot of stress in our present lives even without a Great Awakening.

So, try to put that which strengthens one another, lifts mood etc. on thread and use private messaging to confer with others. Please choose to pm those with juice to spare and give those who are struggling time to recharge. 

I like the following quote because it speaks to what Grimmy said about fear being contagious. I would have just posted the meme below but I didn't want people to think "it's wrong" or "you CAN'T have feelings or vent stress."   We're human and this is all unprecedented, just like our favorite President!

I'm just saying the right place for it is private messaging to generating fear in others. You can include one or more people on on the FReepmail address,  and copy and paste that list into the top of your message itself so recipients know the names of everyone you're addressing. Then put your concerns below in the body of the email.

You can develop toasty warm little support groups this way. So instead of "keep to yourself" in the meme below, I'd prefer it read "share in FReepmail"! :D

Okay, ready to see the meme?

ThankQ

Excellent idea on the “support groups” thing.

Isaiah 41:10
Fear thou not; for I am with thee:
be not dismayed; for I am thy God:
I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee;
yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Thanks MQD.
After reading that, I’m hoping my post #888 wasn’t too edgy.

I was shocked to realize it landed on infinity trips.
If I aim, it’s usually for #666 to post an appropriate Hillary Meme or
something.

Perhaps that one belonged there instead.

TThank you Ransomnote. Apparently there are people here who want to shut this group down. Pushing, pushing, pushing. Irrational seeming butt I think purposeful. Be wary when posters turn and don’t stop.
