The other day I was doing dishes and happen to set a favorite large coffee cup in a 4 cup measuring cup in a sink full of bubbley water.  When I went to wash this coffee cup, it wouldn't separate from the measuring cup. Pulling, pushing, twisting, jiggling.....adding soap to the areas of contact...nothing.  Right now they are still firmly secured together next to my sink, in hopes that some moment they will decide to separate so that I may use them for their intention.


Yet, I'm afraid one may have to be shattered for me to use the other. My choice would be the measuring cup, becasue I need to use it.  The coffee cup is large....I LOVE  large coffee cups....but, I do have other coffee cups....and I only have coffee once in a while.


In the same way...there are things that I LOVE such as Facebook.  I used to be on there SO MUCH, it was an addiction.  Like the coffee cup and measuring cup...I am a wonderful individual and Facebook is an awesome means of communication.....but I was spending too much time on there.  Many times I've tried to break away from it....to give myself balance...so I could do the things that were necessary,but I always found myself glued to searching out what's going on in those I love lives. Until here recently......


I foolishly opened an email from a friend whom I"m sure wasn't a part of it...but someone hacked into his file and sent me this .....grrrr.....email. The title included something about blogging and I thought that since I posted my blog online, he read it and was posting his for me to read.  NOPE!  My computer went haywire!!! UGH!! And it started sending messages to everyone in my facebook address book!!!


So...because of  this horrible virus and other small viruses and glitches that my computer has obtained through my EXTREME attachment to Facebook....though I love Facebook...and moreso the beautiful lives on Facebook...I am allowing this means of communication to be removed from my life....a "shattering" if I may....so that I may be used by God to my fullest potential.


It's been difficult. At first I was BORED literally to tears and momentary grumbling....but now that it's been a little while....I'm actually enjoying the peace.  Things are getting done too.
