"filling the void" = not willing to cope with it...
i was talking to some people tongiht at work, and they were telling me that they were filling the void that they had gotten from a previous relationship with other relationships that didnt mean anything...it was just there as filler until the real thing came along again. i feel like this is the kind of idea that people of our generation have been plaigued with
"well if we put no emotion in, and we get ours then there will be nothing but physical gradification and no strings attached"
it occured to me that this is such a bogus way to look at relationships, i feel like its just a sign of how lazy people are now adays... there is no commitment because commitment= hard work, and who the hell wants to that? its funny because in christian circles where illict sex is not as common...people still have these same kinda of attitudes...it all boils down to patience we as people want "true Love" and yet very seldom want the work that comes along with it. and when one relationship hits the rocks, we fill the "void" with something else. people go from thing to thing so qucik that they dont give God a chance to show them that he has things under control... and then we point our finger at God and say, why am i in this mess that we are in...
you do that is to your self...relationships take work, and if you havent found the person who you are willing to work hard for than exercise the patience that you know you have but you just dont want to use. if you are worried about a little bit of time spent alone....just think practically, nobody did anything worth anything with out getting hurt...
i guess what im tryin is dont be afraid to work hard for what you want, and know that God is on your side, and that sometimes working hard is being able to be content where you are.... my prayer is for patience, i need to give God a chance to do something and i just want things done my own way and I WANT THAT ISH NOW!!everyone just needs to chill, and know that God is undercontrol. he is rooting for us, hes like the dad at a little league when you get up to bat once a game, and play left out for one inning, he is there still cheering for you and wanting you to make the best of your life, and he also like a dad knows that you will jack it up on your own with out his help.
this is kind of deep, and this is not personal to anyone it is something that i have put alot of thought into, and the conversation tonight just brought me back to my thoughts.
