Well working with you every day i think you have a fantastic godly attitude. <BR/><BR/>You are an extravert as am I and some people express their frustrations inwardly and look like they are not complaing but really they are just dealing with it internally. I know myself as an extra extravert I need to talk through things that go on because that is how I deal with it.<BR/><BR/>I think both the extravert and in the intravert need to be careful the intravert not to store it up and so become bitter and the extravert to becareful how they talk about the frustration and try not to mention names so as to not fall into the trap of gossip.<BR/><BR/>If it is possible most of the time we should try not to complain but i think there is a difference between complaining and working through something that got to you so that it does not become a stumbling block and therefore lead to complaining.<BR/><BR/>Definately praying about these things and reading the word when they happen is good. It is so easy to think things are our right and get on a high horse and we have to becareful not to do that..<BR/><BR/>These are just my opinions anyway love you lots NickiKatespirationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15661882692353000210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7111763072286562558.post-38716704030453233492007-07-05T16:20:00.000+10:002007-07-05T16:20:00.000+10:00Crazy - the buses used to come nearly every 5 minu...Crazy - the buses used to come nearly every 5 minutes!Nixterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00383702655219298395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7111763072286562558.post-68149193976658941622007-07-05T16:19:00.000+10:002007-07-05T16:19:00.000+10:00Thanks for the feedback guys, I think you are thin...Thanks for the feedback guys, I think you are thinking along the same lines as me - but as Soph said it's putting it in to practice.<BR/><BR/>Another verse that comes to mind is '<BR/>do nothing out of selfish ambition', I guess we need to check our motives too..Nixterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00383702655219298395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7111763072286562558.post-78532775506135183822007-07-05T15:55:00.000+10:002007-07-05T15:55:00.000+10:00Good thought Nixter!!

We are encouraged to look out for others. Also Jesus taught that whatever we do for the least we do in fact for God. Would he appreciate the bus waiting for Him? I think he would.<BR/><BR/>Also you have nothing to complain about having to wait for 30-40 mins because down here I have to wait for two hours if I miss my bus!Crazyjedidiahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01256691810732446962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7111763072286562558.post-43788182451240633432007-07-04T17:09:00.000+10:002007-07-04T17:09:00.000+10:00Hey Nixter, I would say that as long as you're gra...Hey Nixter, I would say that as long as you're graceful in delivering your complaint, there's no reason why you shouldn't complain. As opposed to grumbling/ whingeing, complaining as I see it is a legitimate response to ill-treatment. Christ also told us to love our neighbours as ourselves, and the bus driver you mention shows contempt for his fellow man. <BR/>I reckon your complaint may make Sydney's buses more pleasant, but the proof is yet to be shown.<BR/><BR/>Scarily, I've noticed that bus drivers tend to be the some of most aggressive and ill-tempered public workers.Giraffe Penhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04151464042260450786noreply@blogger.com
