Resignation

I just don't know what to say anymore.  My life is wasted.  I am dead to God because of my really bad sins.  I hate myself, I am loosing motivation to even do the most basic things in life.

I still am toying with escort services.  I talked to one chick who decided I was a cop when I tried to drop off the deposit she requested.  I should have walked away in a huff.  Instead I hung around pining for her to meet in spite of her misgivings.  I must learn never to do that again.  Not for that kind of sh*t.  Now at church, that is expected.  You beg for whatever you want or need.  You keep asking even though the initial answer is no.  And of course I don't do that in church and so people think I'm not worthy of their time or attention.

I just have to learn to go to meetings regardless of how disagreeable it is to be there.  To do it in spite of the fact that I don't want to.  To be so determined that I just do what I need to do (basically going to the meetings at this point) regardless of my feelings to the contrary.  I haven't yet built up the will to do so strong enough to overpower my resistance to going.  I have to Study & Pray for the help to do so.  I haven't been doing enough of that.

So, I think I'm gonna' die.  A victim of Satan and his system, along with my own stupidity.  What a sorry fate awaits me.  They say that it doesn't need to be this way.  That "all I have to do" is turn to God and he will help me to succeed in resisting Satan.  But I haven't yet succeeded in doing so.  I know I don't have much time left, but I'm sure that if I had another 30 years, I'd find a way to screw it up.  Damn!

How are you?

Well time has continued its march and I have continued stagnant.  Actually no, not stagnant regressing.  I have actually done it now, twice.  Once with an escort that I really liked in email but I couldn't get into in person.  The other was great, I mean really great looking and had an interesting perspective.  The sex was great for her but only marginal for me.  I couldn't keep things as stiff as usual.  I never came, either time. 

The whole time with both providers I just kept thinking about how I was doing what was wrong and that I would have to pay for this infraction (besides the money I paid the escorts -- for their time and companionship only.  We made no agreement regarding anything except time and companionship.)  No I will almost assuredly get kicked out of the congregation now.  The big df. 

I have been down all week about it.  It has only stunted my improvement from my depressed state. 

The meds are ok now.  No hands shaking and minimal jumpiness.  Its still there but not nearly as bad as it was. 

I continue to waste every single weekend. 

I mean I am really unhappy now.  No friends, no good prospects for friends.  Soon to be (if not already in principle) out of the congregation.  Life is really looking dark now.  Yes, I know I have much to be thankful for, but I just can't manage to get my arms around the things I need to do. 

I still can't gather the fortitude to get to any meetings.  I keep thinking "I'll go next time for sure."  and then as the time for getting ready approaches, all the energy just drains from my body and I can't get motivated to move a muscle toward the shower, or toward the car.  What a useless sloth I have become.  Useful to no one.  I continue to digress in speech, writing and in life.  There seems to be little hope now.  I don't even pray very much.  Not reading the text.  Reading the bible only occasionally. 

I love the picture for this post.  It is what I feel every time I am in the meeting and someone asks that.  I concluded long ago that people really don't care how you are doing.  It's just a polite thing to say.  If the phrase of greeting was as deep and meaningful as "snarf kufuffelouf gemanison"  it would be just as useful.  No one says that, 'cause that's not the custom.  They say "Hi, how are you"  and you are supposed to respond:  "Fine and you?"  That exchange is just as meaningful as "snarf kufuffelouf" to which the recipient responds "gemanison."  and the exchange is over.  Same amount of information is passed.  Everyone has been polite.

This is really bad, and I don't need a circle of deacons to tell me that.  I can't seem to fix it. 

I still think of ending it all, but it is a distant thought at this point.  I don't think I'd ever get there.  It is like pulling a jar of poison off the shelf and looking at it longingly for a few minutes, realizing that it is a poor choice, and then putting it back on the shelf.  If I was going to end it all, it would have been like 3 years ago.  That was bad.  Probably the worst off I have ever been.  Now it is bad, actually worse spiritually.  Back then I wasn't facing expulsion as I am now.

All this with the constant realization that I have totally wasted my life.  It's all in flames now.  No hope of savior except from God.  Of course there are much larger issues going on in his realm.  I am just nothing, especially given the fact that I chose to be in this situation.  I am not sitting in some military prison for remaining firm for my faith.  I am in this mental prison for giving in to my carnal and material desires.  That's the hell of it.  This is mostly my fault.  I can't blame the 'rents, or the bitch, or the deacons.  This is just me baby.  No body twisted my arm and said go to college, or go to Wilmington DE to work for DuPont.  No one made me take that stinky job in Charlotte or in any one of the other half dozen places I moved to in order to follow my "career" (such that it is.)

Embarassed

Time marches on around me.  I sit still in my spiritual progress hoping that the end is yet 10 years off.  I don't believe that any more.  I think it is like 2 years away.  I just don't know though.

I want to go to meetings but I can't seem to get myself motivated to go.  I'm on Zoloft again.  I can't really feel it but I was (relatively) productive last weekend.  I got an oil change for one car and a slow leak in the tire for another.  I took the dc out to dinner and I didn't go to the meeting or finish the laundry.

Pathetic, but yet and still better than most recent weekends.  DC thinks I should get Arlene an ipad.  I think that's a good idea.  I need to look into it though. 

I am still a f*cking mess and a blithering idiot.  I think about the bad and stupid things I have done recently and I just want to gag, yell, scream in agony over the foolishness I have wrought upon my head.  I am so deeply ashamed.  And then from a spiritual perspective it is all much, much worse.  There seems to be no way out of this mess.  The "brothers" have literally given up on me.  The rest of the congregation follows their lead and stopped touching me with their 10 foot poles. 

i walk around the city at lunch deliberately going by the place where Jw's are doing street work.  Just seeing them is encouraging.  I almost never speak to them though.  I really don't have anything to say.  I wish I could be like them, but I can't seem to bridge that gap.  I so deeply hate myself. 

I got to do some real coding last week.  It made me feel good.  Like I had some skill.  However I realize that any school boy could do the same.  I am so very humiliated in my life and thinking.  I am just so very ashamed. 

Prayer 20170228 0740 Hours

Sometimes I can't collect my thoughts and pray at the same time, so I decided to write this one down:

Oh dear God, what have I done with my life.  It is just a mess; I am headed for another major failure.  I can't get myself to the meetings and I am seeing cuddlists for the personal comfort and nuzzling that I need.  However it exposes me to danger in some sense.  I am not comfortable with the practice but I feel like I need it, but I am sure it is similar to, but not as strong as, the need of an addict for their drug of choice, be it alcohol, heroin or coffee.

I have chosen badly, electing Satan's world over yours.  I have suffered and I'll suffer more yet.  I have felt the absence of joy and hope poignantly.  It cuts deep into my soul.  But like a monkey with his hand in a capture jar, I can't let go.  I can feel my resistance to Satan's siren song fading, as much as I want to hold to cold logic.  Logic that says serve Jehovah with all your strength.

But I listen to Satan's music, I work in his world I entertain myself with his media and I visit his escorts.  No wonder I am failing.  No wonder I can't get to the meetings.

But what now, Jehovah, how do I make myself turn to you, listen to your voice and maybe one day serve you more than the previous day each day forward.  Honestly it seems impossible.  I know it is not impossible to you, but since the elders have given up on me, I haven't been successful.  I guess I do blame them some, even as cold logic and real evidence tells me that I am primarily to blame.  This morass is of my own doing.  I hate myself for it. 

Thank you for the good things and I am really glad mom and dad will enjoy a great life.  Please help them forget about me if I don't make it.  Help Wendy carry on as well, please.  I am so deeply ashamed of myself.  I ache at heart and want to hide myself from you.  But that's worse than continuing to try, even weakly.  I wonder if this is how Adam felt. 

For now my request is simple, please help me get to the meeting today. 

In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

And yet more Sh*t

This is old, I'm just going to post it so that it is in the correct order, but it really comes from late 2016.

Lots of stuff is going on now. I am seriously starting to get rid of my house Lower Va.  I'm having loads of trouble with my new job. I have almost completely fallen out of the truth (again) and, to that point, I had an in-call session with a really hot but very nice provider (nothing happened.) I almost had a session with another smoking hot provider.  I got scared in a dentist chair and prayed to God for the first time in a long time.  I missed another assembly.  I am sitting here thinking about going to a meeting for the first time in a very long time.  What makes this time different is that I actually downloaded the meeting workbook and updated the links to the attendant materials to be sure I have everything.  I won't be surprised if my car breaks down on the way there. Oh, and I am exercising more and loosing weight, although the past 2 days I seem to have plateaued and I just pigged out on some left over sandwiches in the kitchen.

Oh and I am still trying with the bitch from FL.  Played it cool last weekend.  Made her day with a comment and then went dark.  Probably pick it up again this weekend.

Oh yes and I am picking up morning bible reading again (for the past several days or so.)

A living breathing study in contrasts this is.

Of course now its 5:30, I am dog tired.  I realize I can't get up at 2:00 AM and expect to go to a 7:30 meeting that gets me home at 10:00 PM.  I can't do  that any more, even when I am exercising.  I think I'm going to have to skip exercising on meeting days.  Maybe get up at 4:30 or even 5:00 on those days.
