“INFIDELITY” by Jerry Welch

What you're about to read was a post made by Jerry Welch. Hope you enjoy this.


 “INFIDELITY” I know this is a very uncomfortable topic. BUT.. Emotional infidelity has become all too common in 


the computer age. It’s so important in a relationship that this unseen line is never crossed, although it seems very 


easy to cross unintentionally these days. If you are in a relationship, it’s important to communicate, even more 


important if you are trying to build a new relationship. If one person thinks they are building an exclusive 


relationship and the other person is still surfing dating sites, texting, emailing, and facebook chat with other 

people in a playful/flirting manor, it’s called Emotional Infidelity. The definition of Emotional infidelity: Emotional      


involvement with another person, a process that leads one’s partner to channel emotional resources, such as 


romantic love, time, and attention, to someone else. The level of intimate involvement can extend from in-person 


involvement to online affairs. Emotional infidelity, as compared to physical infidelity, can inflict as much, if not 


more, hurt, pain and suffering… Isaiah 47:10-11 “You felt secure in your wickedness, you said, “No one sees 


me”; your wisdom and your knowledge led you astray, and you said in your heart, “I am, and there is no one 


besides me. But evil shall come upon you, which you will not know how to charm away; disaster shall fall upon 


you, for which you will not be able to atone; and ruin shall come upon you suddenly, of which you know nothing.” WRITTEN by JERRY WELCH

Gratitude is my all access pass

One thing I can tell you for sure using a wheelchair as part of life isn't always easy. I used to make it even

harder by thinking that I had nothing to be grateful for; just the fact that I could think meant I had at least one

thing to be grateful for that day.  Without giving my mind a positive path to go on I always wound up in dark

place asking someone to help me. Then I had a great idea, God has the answers go to church and get saved or

baptized something. So then I tried a plethora of religions and my life sucked worse than before because I was

trying to be someone that I didn't believe in all in the hopes of dying, making it to heaven AND then finally being

happy. WRONG!! As it turns out it was my thinking about myself and life in general that made my experiences

every where so tumultuous. Today I feel gratitude my life, who I am and what I've experienced. TRUST hating

anything about yourself only leads to more things to hate showing. LOVE it all and if nothing else you'll feel

better.

What's UP with me!!

I am grateful to be here.  Even though I'm experiencing some rough spots mine eyes have seen the glory of the

coming of the lord.  Soon I'll be moderating a popular new forum which will be fun. A new business venture has

arisen here's the website http://www.iapply4jobs.com . Contests are fun but tedious when you have to secure

votes. I've entered 6 so far, not addicted but definitely feel a rush when I see a CONTEST.  Bed Bath and

Beyond have the best egg crates for beds since I've not found them at Target in a while. Oh yes and I'm

detoxing slowly on blessed herbs from Dr. Robert Norse, will tell the outcome later. Finally I'm taking my

braids down not as fun as braiding them up especially since it's my own natural hair and I'm just a wee bit

tender headed yikes.

The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

After working with the wisdom from Proverbs for a few days, a scripture from Matthew became really clear to me today. Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. Matthew 26 verse 41. Here's what I understand; focus on God and pray believing that all things are possible to God. Basically I've prayed hoping in God not believing and knowing how awesome God really is. So God is always willing to open the windows of heaven, and pour out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. However if the flesh, which is me, was paying obeisance to doubt and fear, then I cannot blame anyone for me entering into temptation, instead having faith the size of a mustard seed. WOW, this is a powerful realization.

lOOking for work

I'm up early praying meditating feeling tired
looking out of my windows it feels like I'm lurking
I'm getting gas and buying coffee and now I'm wired
filled out so many applications still I'm not working
should I go door to door or would it go faster on the internet?
I was surplussed by my company, why does everyone think I was fired?
scams, MLM, work from home, business opportunities oh the people I have met
all I really want to hear is Mister you've been hired
times have changed the want ads no one needs a soda jerk
the boards have taken over career, monster, the ladders, indeed
can anyone be certain that people are really finding work?
is there something I can create to fulfill a missing need?
I've worked so many places and always taken any kind of job
won't we do anything in this world not feel like a bum?
this is true looking back I know I'm not a slob
I just have to find new creative ways to bring in income.

T.V. or not t.v.

No mas" Chico and the man", looking good!
Mr. Rogers has left the universal neighborhood

The small screen shows behavior which is crude
like watching a nightmare, I screamed and booed.

Nothing but kids and parents with bad attitudes
bad business practices not really shrewd;

Maybe the letters are being controlled by juveniles
replacing "Sesame Street" time slot with the "X files".

The days of "Father knows best" are over,
shows with titles like "Lassie", "Rin tin tin" or dogs named Rover.

Who cares if "Cops" are respected and clean?
It's all being run by some political machine.

Reality or drama none of it is supposed to be funny
when you get down to "The Wire" it's always been about the money.

I have to apologize

I think I was prejudiced against other people with disabilities because I found myself thinking if they weren't using a wheelchair then they weren't really disabled. At church I was having a conversation with a woman who walks yet parks in the handicapped parking spots. I asked her what her disability was and she told me that she had some kind of disease that whittles away at her bones and flesh, and it makes it hard for her to walk long distances even though she appears to be completely healthy.So over the past year I'd come to realize that more people in fact have some kind of disability even though it may sequestered. I never used to think of myself as prejudiced. I definitely don't want to continue being prejudiced against people with different disabilities. After 20 odd years though I still find myself saying, "I wonder if they're REALLY disabled?" But prejudice is prejudice whether it's about skin, sexual orientation, or disability status. Part of me thinks its my own passive aggressive retaliation, I still need to check myself about this and not pass blame on anyone else. I ran into this woman this year later and she flat out asked me, "Are you still prejudiced against people with different disabilities?" Then she reminded of our conversation from last year and it hit me like a ton of bricks, maybe I was prejudiced. How do I live on this planet and love everyone unconditionally, or is that even possible? Anyway, this conversation really freaked me out, does it sound like to you that I was prejudiced because I asked what was her disability? I thought it was curiosity but maybe deep down I am prejudiced; maybe I need an intervention lol...
