  • Depositions

    We have our depositions for the criminal trial against Uncle X next week. We have to sit and a room and get drilled by his defense attorney. So, I guess we are getting down to the wire, finally.

    Uncle X has the option of being in the room, if he so chooses.

    And X, if you so choose to be there, I ask one thing of you. I ask you to grant me this one wish..

    Please look me in the eye the entire time, don't look away--not even once.

    Bring On The Rain

    Another day has almost come and gone
    Can't imagine what else could go wrong
    Sometimes I'd like to hide away
    Somewhere and lock the door
    A single battle lost
    But not the war

    'Cause tomorrow's another day
    And I'm thirsty anyway
    So bring on the rain.

    It's almost like the hard times circle 'round
    A couple drops, and they all start comin' down
    Yeah, I might feel defeated,
    And I might hang my head
    I might be barely breathing
    But I'm not dead

    'Cause tomorrow's another day
    And I'm thirsty anyway
    So bring on the rain.

    No, I'm not gonna let it get me down
    I'm not gonna cry
    And I'm not gonna lose any sleep tonight

    'Cause tomorrow's another day
    And I'm thirsty anyway
    So bring on the rain......

      Our Time Is Today!

      Hi Rovivus,

      Your Mother and I go today and so does your cousin. She is being deposed as I write. I am up soon. I would rather the sun be shining. I don't like this rain.

          Remember this?

          "Recognizing the impersonality of law, the survivor is to some degree relieved of the personal burden of battle. It is the law, not she, that must prevail."

          Hmm...

            if the law prevails

            I don't think the law is going to prevail. So are you going to say everything is ok if it means that someone gets a different verdict than you expect?

              Hi Split,

              You asked:

              "I don't think the law is going to prevail. So are you going to say everything is ok if it means that someone gets a different verdict than you expect?"

              I'm not quite sure if I understand your question, if you wouldn't mind clarifying.
              But..

              The law will not decide anything for me in regards to our family, or myself and my life. I'm prepared to live with any outcome that might present itself. I re-posted that quote because it used to be my signature to all my posts, a while back. I have come to identify with that quote in different ways throughout my healing.

              I used to think that I had handed everything over for the Law to attend to. During times of distress and utter chaos, that perspective is comforting. It really does relieve some of the burden. It reminds me of when people say "I'm going to turn this or that over to God to take care of", which I have also said many times lately. However, I have come to understand that no matter what the Law decides, I had to make my own decisions about what I value, and what I stand for. In other words, the Law will not help me to know myself.

              Anyway, you asked me if I will say that things are okay, if the verdict is not what I want. Well, I actually feel that everything is okay right now. I'm not really waiting to make any decisions based on the outcome of the trial. I will live then, as I live now--content, confident, grateful and motivated.

              I'm wondering why you don't think the law will prevail. Would you mind sharing? If not, that's okay too.

              Peace and love,

                Love Prevails!

                Hi Split,

                Good day to you! Since love is the fulfillment of the Law, I do believe and have based my action upon the idea that the Law will prevail, that is, the Law of ELOHIM. Messiah is in charge. He has commanded in HIS Law
                John 15:17
                17 These things I command you, that ye love one another.(KJV)
                Love is very mysterious. We do not always know how and when love is in operation. Do you recall these words?:
                I think that Stranger and I agree that this issue should not have been brought before the civil courts before it was fully judged by any religious court which had jurisdiction. I think that DeAnna believes that this issue should definitely not be judged by any believer other than YAH. I know that Parachute and ImAHebrew and Hyssop by their silence seem to agree that the civil court now has jurisdiction over this issue. As a father and a shepherd and a brother, I must say that I have at no time relinquished my right and duty to judge this issue, and I have never in my mind relinquished jurisdiction over this issue to any criminal court.
                Love prevails!

                  Good morning everyone,

                  I was never given the opportunity to achieve my deposition the week that my Dad was deposed. I am scheduled for this afternoon. The scheduling process has been really frustrating. The defense attorney has inaccurately scheduled our depositions on a number of dates, and failed to live up to his schedule. I find it very disappointing and unprofessional. I suppose he may just have an incompetent assistant, but nonetheless, I realize that my appointment today could get postponed, just like the ones in the past have. However, I am ready to go today. In fact, I think I was born ready.

                  I will keep you all posted.

                  By the way, Uncle X has not shown up at any of the depositions so far. He has every right to be there, yet he chooses not to be.

                    Hello everybody,

                    I just wanted to let you know that I finally got to do my deposition. I arrived there on my broomstick yesterday at 10am, and I was there until 4:30pm. I really wish I could tell you all about it.

                    Uncle X was not present—big shocker, huh?

                    Anyway, I was pretty nervous before I went in there, but once I saw the defense attorney I was not nervous at all.

                    Anyway, since I can’t actually say much about it, I will just post the chorus of a current hit by Christina Aguilera. Just picture me yesterday, driving home in traffic, singing this chorus as loud as my lungs will allow—a moment I will never forget.

                    ….Makes me that much stronger
                    Makes me work a little bit harder
                    It makes me that much wiser
                    So thanks for making me a fighter
                    Made me learn a little bit faster
                    Made my skin a little bit thicker
                    Makes me that much smarter
                    So, thanks for making me a fighter…!!!

                    I’d like to thank Stranger for everything he ever said to me. I have finally realized the purpose that he served in my life.

                    That’s all I have for now.
