Another Husband Agrievement

My husband told me that I got a private facebook message from my former best friend who has not spoken to me in 5 years. Then, he wouldn't read it to me, babbling on about how he hates facebook and doesn't know how nor like to use it. Now, I currently cannot use facebook through my Tobii SonoKey interface nor can I access it alone in any form.

I get incredibly frustrated when he is my only gateway to do something that is so important to me and he lames out because he doesn't want to or fains ineptitude to get out of it.

I wish I had more options and didn't have to rely on him.

Initially, when some members of my family read my blog, they chose to focus on what they viewed as negative. The feedback I got was harsh and personally critical. .I was told that I was ...

Prayer

Occasionally, we are seized with a rebellion so sickening that we simply won't pray. When these things happen we must not think too ill of ourselves. We should simply resume prayer as soon as we can, doing what we know to be good for us. -- TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, page 105  Gee, I could have saved myself years of self-reproach by taking it easy on myself. "Try" as I might, I never could make prayer, in the traditional sense, a daily occurrence for stretches longer than a month. I had good intentions but inevitably, I'd be running late and forget. Or worse, I'd get a big, fat bout of attitude about not getting my wishes (the permanent position at the Gates Foundation, being fired from my last job when my health deteriorated, the cancellation of my Panama Canal cruise, and the various abandonments I experienced following my ALS diagnosis) and off I'd go, cursing my Higher Power, turning my back, isolating, and wishing I were dead (actually, I wa...
