You're right. :) He will work it all out in His timeing.

I think a lot of why people have a harder time than back in like Little House days is because the school system has tried to shield the students from so much. Then when they get in the adult world things are difficult. I think it effects the school system as well. For when something serious happens [like bullying] they don't always know how to handle it.

As you wrote last night: "But God is healing me. He's very pacient (patient)." So must you be!
Being low-20ish in these times in the US is a pretty scary experience, with moral mine fields every where you turn laid by those trying to corrupt you for their own means (including gross materialism and consumption, unhealthy lifesyles, et al.), and it appears the modern education system in no way is designed to produce adults, but simply trained perpetual adolescents.
There was a time not long ago (circa WW2), when at 17 or 18 many were embarking on the great journey of life by marrying and beginning their families and lives together; go back another 50 years to the late 1800's/early 1900's, and the ages drop to 16/17 with the age of consent in most US aeas 14 or even 13. (Can jump it back to ancient times of Biblical era and it's 12/13, but one reason is the average life span was late 20's). The difference between then and now is then both boys and girls were taught as soon as they could walk the minimum skills of being able to cook, keep house, and take care of babies). Today, I know many in their 30's that are mere children in their attitudes, and life is one day after another of play.
  Sometimes I think US social institutions are intentionally set up to delay adulthood since that way they are under government control via the schhol system, and are taught to depend on anything or anyone except themselves.
  My parents married in 1942 at 17 with dad going to war, both sets of grandparents were married at 16 before they immigrated to America (dad's Irish in 1893, and mom's Scot Highlanders in 1897).
  I knew exactly what I wanted at 17 as a career, and a month before my 18th birthday, I found the woman I still believe was The One God had made just for me; and at 16, she thought the same for 2 years as I studied at college. It did not happen (too long a story), and that loss set in motion a completely new path for me, and for her.
  Life is a continual learning process, and it oftens demands the courage to act on blind faith and trust in people and knowing that God will keep you from total destruction along the way.
  Beginning next year I am starting a completely different to the path of my life, one I unknowingly prepared my entire life for: it is both exciting and frightening at once, as any change is.
  All we can do is try to live as best as we can by our beliefs and let God's plan unfold.
  Be patient for the healing and be patient for when God opens up the path of your life.

Thanks,brother. There's still so much I can't share. Those are still too difficult...

 

There's also other flashbacks I have, I just don't understand what was happening.

I think many of your AAG friends definitely would say you are healing: you have opened up and are facing the things that are bothering you, and you are not afraid to reach out for advice and above all to ask God for help. I think also you are beginning to realize what "she said" "or what she did to me" is not important, but that what you say and do is. You are beginning to look into the mirror and see yourself, not someone else. Keep praying and fighting!
