Monday Mission

1. Last night, I had a nightmare that my car had been
stolen. I and a female companion were leaving a party and my car, that had been
parked in the street, was gone. It was so real, that my pulse was quickening. I
panicked, and said to myself "It must be a dream, I have to wake up!" I crouched
down on my feet, grabbed my head and with all my might fought to wake up.
Finally, I did, and it really was a dream, but my heart was pounding so bad that
it took a while to calm down. Have you ever had a dream so real, that
inside the dream you had to fight to wake yourself up? Do you remember the
dream? yes yes

2. I've mentioned this before, but I really don't believe in
the concept of a "soul-mate." Maybe this is because I've never really felt like
I have met mine. Once I thought maybe, but she felt someone else was hers. Could
be that in another relationship I met her, and for some reason it didn't work
out, but then, we wouldn't really have been soul-mates, would we? So, when I
hear someone say "I've met my soul-mate" I cringe and roll my eyes and mumble
"yeah, right." How would you define the concept of a "soul-mate" is? Do
you believe in such things? Have you met your soul-mate? someone who has similar
likes, morals, and tastes as you

3. What does it take to make men happy anyway? not sure

4. What is your favorite piece of electric hardware, and why? 
not sure

5. Yesterday in our adult Sunday School class, a lady was
telling us about a woman with car trouble she had stopped to help. Now, the lady
who stopped had her own 2 small children in her car. With so much uncertainty
out there, I am not so sure I would stop to help a stranger if I had 2 children
in my car. Turns out though, that the motorist was a mother who had a 15-month
old in the car and was on the way to church. She also had just lost an infant
and was having the service the next day, but now would have no way to get there.
Eventually she got the lady and her child to her church. It left me wondering
how many people I had just driven by that I could have helped. But at the same
time, I felt like she was taking too big of a risk stopping to help a stranger
when it was just her and her children. Have you ever stopped to help a
stranded motorist? Has anyone ever stopped to help you when you were stranded?
Isn't there some element of risk involved when helping someone with car trouble,
or is it better to just "do unto others as you'd have them do unto you?" no.
it's good to help them but I've been guilty of not stopping myself.
