I lost my job, so things seem kind of stupid and pointless right now, because I thought I was on the right track and it really threw me.

And now everyone's pushing me again to go back out and try again. Dad told me next week he's off, so if I need to I can go job-hunting, I can go visit a doctor, and I said I don't care about any of those things. Then he goes on some thing about how I can't blow things off, lest the "darkness will swallow me whole." I'm sorry, but parent or not, does anyone realize how ridiculous they sound when they say that?

Yeah, I'm in a funk right now. When and how I'll be out of it? No clue! But honestly...nobody's helping with their flowery words and their "Oh, shucks, well just go out and try again!" malarkey.
Sounds to me you got some very good advice. I probably would have told you to bury yourself in Gods word and commit to deeper prayer life in addition to what was advised.

But hey! You are 18 and you know everything!! Hang out and let the lice fall off ya. Maybe a job will appear out of the woodwork? Maybe your funk will go away without putting forth any effort to fix it. Positive words of exhortation from loved ones is just ridiculous malarkey!!
Work it out on your own.That is, after you have had enough of your pity party:(

Thank you for your encouraging and motivational speech. My mood has magically been changed, and I, a simple teenager, know absolutely nothing, in spite of the fact I never claimed to know everything or anything in the first place.

Watch your words then! Dont come on here and bash your dad. It isnt becoming. God says honor your parents. Your dad sounds like a good dad. He is trying to help you.
Get outside and get some exercise. Take in all that you are thankful for. Make your dad the first thing you are thankful for. Some people dont have a dad. Be thankful

Since I don't owe you any sort of explanation of any sort, I'm just going to say maybe YOU should watch YOUR words, because you don't know my story, you don't even know ME, and how dare you act like you do.

And people in here know that I mean no ill will towards my dad. I'm just frustrated with him. I'm frustrated with my situation. Does that mean I don't love or appreciate my dad? No.

I based what I said on what you wrote! :DLOL

[h=3]1 Peter 5:
[/h][h=3][/h][h=3] [/h] Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” ...


[h=3] Ephesians 6:1
[/h]
[h=3][/h][h=3] [/h] Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.


[h=3]Proverbs 20:11
[/h][h=3][/h][h=3] [/h] Even a child makes himself known by his acts, by whether his conduct is pure and upright.


[h=3]Ephesians 6:1-4
[/h][h=3][/h][h=3] [/h] Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.” Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

Hey blondie :) I don't think lil_christian was proclaiming that she knew everything. Those seemed to come from your mouth :/ I do agree that some teens do think they know everything, but remember that not everyone is the same. And from lil_christian's post, she's seeking help and love. She never proclaimed anything and her post didn't come off as that.

She just lost her job, a bit of grace and love is needed in these situations.

lil_christian, we love you very much. You had a rough day or season. <3

Side note, also, some adults ALSO think they know everything. Not just teens. We can point fingers at different generations all we want, but at the end of the day, there are a lot of people out there....both teens and adults....who think they know everything.
