The Tongue ring



I feel I need to write about Samantha's tongue ring. I feel angry each time I see it. Yesterday we sat in the kitchen and Samantha put a piece of pickled onion on the tongue ring. I could not sit there and watch so I left the room. I think it is a disgusting thing.
When Samantha got the tongue ring I told her to remove it. She did not ask permission and she also knew that I did not approve of tongue rings. She would not listen. I did not talk to her for a few days. Des did not support me in her removing it. I feel helpless about this situation and each time I see it I feel angry about it. She like to show it off and play with it. She also likes to talk about it. I tell her I don't want to hear about it. I suppose this is not a healthy situation but I don't know what to do. This tongue ring is a symbol of Samantha's total disregard for my feelings and value's. Is is also a symbol of her disregard for the prophets council. This is what makes me saddest. Posted by Picasa

  1. Oh Angela, I feel your sadness. Having been one who disregarded my parents rules, I can only say, there is hope yet.

    In time or eternity she will see the error of her ways and in the same you will be blessed for your good strong example and your faithfulness.

    The Lord will compensate you for every tear that you shed for your girls.

    Thank you for always being a good friend and example to me.

My Blog

Over the past weeks as I have posted things on My blog I have come to know more about myself and who I am. I am exploring aspects of myself that I have not for a very long time. Even if no one looks at this blog this is a good enough reason for me to do this.

It is also a little like keeping a journal, but diffent because you are just a little more careful what you record because others might see what you have written.

Most of all I have enjoyed the time spent and rediscovered things about myself I have forgoten.

This has also made me aware of things I am sensitive about and did not know i was senstive about, like my testimony, the things I believe and feelings.
