Walls of discord - The results of discord

Walls of discord

 

No matter where I look

beginning with the family

all the way to nations

everywhere there is discord.


All along

the human had the order

to love and respect each other.


Locked in and imprisoned

behind thick walls

is everyone who spreads discord.


But everyone thinks he is right

and is not willing

to extend forgiveness

to the other person.


Walls of discord

built out of stones of pride

and a superior attitude

hold me imprisoned

and I don’t even seem to notice it.


Or maybe I do?


Discord leaves its marks.


Much is scattered

and I am suffering from it.


To put an end to the suffering

I would need to be honest

to reach out my hand of reconciliation

and live out forgiveness.


Who has bewitched me

in such a way

that I am not willing to do just that

over and over again?


Why am I so stubborn

and insist on my rights?


Walls of discord

bring nothing but tragedy

to the family

and to the whole world.

Proverbs 6:16–19

Six things Hashem hates; Seven are an abomination to Him:… A mind that hatches evil plots, Feet quick to run to evil,… A false witness testifying lies… , And one who incites brothers to quarrel.

The second problem - PTSD (Post-traumatic stress disorder)

The second problem I have a problem, or so I thought for a long time. Something bothered me immensely. Whether it was: suffering, illness,  injustice, bullying, abuse, loss, or anything else that threw me off track, what's certain is that the pain of it was etched into my mind. I got incredibly upset about it, simmered with anger and resentment, shrouded myself in self-pity and depression, occupied myself with all sorts of distractions, and did all sorts of things to try and get rid of the pain. Soon I realized that the thought about my problem had become lodged inside me, like a bird that has built a nest  in my tree. I'm starting to brood over the negative feelings. Day and night, they give me no peace. I'm getting so worked up about this terrible situation that I'm constantly preoccupied with all sorts of possible and even impossible scenarios. Soon, I'm experiencing increasing difficulty concentrating. Coping with everyday tasks becomes more and m...

Information about the posts in March 2026

All posts posted in March 2026 have a specific order to them. I have placed them in 3 different categories: 1. The Problems 2. The Considerations 3. The Solutions Posts, that will be posted after March 2026 do not have this order, but will be posted randomly only sorted by the time they were posted. It is my hope, that the reader realizes, that he/she is not the only one struggling with a certain problem. I have spent much effort going into the depth of each problem with the hope that the reader can identify with it. Over time I have come to realize that the way we react to problems in principle is timeless. We all get stuck with the same or similar reactions. At the beginning those reactions are rather unproductive or even destructive.  It is my goal to not only honestly write about different problems, but also give the reader, who is seeking solutions good thoughts to consider. I do wish for each reader to read the lyrics with an open mind and contemplate what is wr...

When the soul cries out - Emotional pain

When the soul cries out   When the soul cries out then the head is full with pain. When the soul cries out then it is obvious that you cannot concentrate. When the soul cries out then the everyday routines become difficult. When the soul cries out then any contacts with the outside world become more and more difficult. When the soul cries out then you become more impatient with yourself and others. When the soul cries out then you need a lot of love and comfort  in order to heal again.     (1606121555-1912,1706120737-0747)     Psalm 147:3 (The Israel Bible) He heals their broken hearts, and binds up their wounds.
