I think that is selective hearing, you know what you said, yet not everyone else hears what you said, by not reading the whole post mainly only hearing condemnation that we all get used to, from growing up, others condemning others.
"selective'' Hearing
Do we take the time to see from the other posters sight?

I had a late night last night. Played wallyball with some friends and then sat around a fire-pit with them for a few hours afterwards. I had a great time, and it's times like that that make me wonder what the heck am I doing, moving away.
Then this morning at church during the worship songs my mom started crying a bit, and then I started crying and it felt like I couldn't stop. I eventually did, but even throughout my dad's sermon and throughout the day today I've had to blink back tears. I am hanging out with my friends again tonight, so here's hoping I have myself together by then.
I forgot how tired I get after crying.
I'm fine, though. I just don't like in-between stages, and the fact that I'm exhausted means I have less control over my emotions.

I know the feeling and depth, for me it was rocknroll songs in the generation I grew up in, and from the way I saw it, not the way others see it, as we all know what we say or said, others either hear it or they don't, a commonality between people, connecting and disconnecting, like talking on a phone and static interferes, what?
Go Sister go, God has always got you smothered and covered in God grace, and teaches us all from whatever mistakes we all make, and only when we are ready to listen we listen and finally hear, as we grow and possible make more mistakes
So instead of trying to prove our-self's
How about ask God to improve our selves? Think God will in love and not condemnation?

Sister, natural for you to ponder, and decide and feel left out, peer pressure, and decision here is not easy, I remember myself at thew young age and the tragedies I faced and went through from my own adversities in the bad ones I made.
Here I am today, still standing and without all the tragedies, I would not know what I know, even though I do wish I had not made those decisions I made.
But no matter what I made them and went through them and learned from them, to not do them. So all in all I am thankful, praying you won't have to go through them, to learn, and I get the feeling you won't, and know what decision is right to make, and do, for you do contemplate all to Father whom you trust, so
Stand tall, it is worth it, no matter what, and if ever get sifted like wheat, I know your Faith is prayed for and will always return as this is what Christ told Peter and I think it for all to come to and see as we all get troubles her ein this life

The above be God to me at least

All this shows Sister is where to put and keep your dependence on? Self, others, self and others or God alone who knows what is best for each of us especially through selfish times, you think?
Is God the only trustworthy one, Jesus thought and said so, and you are finiding out why.
So can say Praise God in this?

i have LOTS OF IDEAS too. unfortunately, said client isn't all that interested in them right now.
"ohh, good call, m, why don't you email me the particulars and we'll take a look at that after we finish 345334543 things..."
oh no, we have to stay on this dying lame horse until it drowns in the river and we all suffer for failing to succeed with your craptastic plans. yeah, that's the right idea. uh huh.
it sucks to be an idea person sometimes. to practically present a gift wrapped solution, but because they've thrown their $$$ away on stoopid ideas, now we're all stuck with this stupid nag.
and it sucks to see disaster looming far ahead of what anyone else either sees or is willing to acknowledge.
and it sucks that i have no one to bring me a steamy mug of cafe au lait right now. sigh.
and yes, half of my metaphors reference horses

The mother of one of the 3-year-old girls I babysit told me this story tonight:
a few days ago, their whole family was hanging out in the living room just before bedtime. Everyone was in their pajamas, but the 3-year-old came into the room in a dress. She marched into the middle of the room, put her hands out in razzle-dazzle jazz hands style and said "look everyone! I'm Hallie! MISS Hallie! *twirls in dress*
I love that she associates dresses with me I've known her since she was born and she's never seen me in a pair of pants haha so I guess it makes sense. But still. Adorable.

When I was nannying the middle child was a little girl, she was about three as well. One day she picked up her mom's purse, held it on her arm just like I do, put on her princess high heels, and "pranced about" (her mother's words). She insisted that everyone call her "Mama Mimi" (that's what the kids called me), and she wouldn't answer to anything else. This went on for a few hours.
I guess I made quite an impression.
