Adapting

You ever wonder what happens when you change and environment of an animal?? Most will die, while others will seem to change and adapt. Not really cool when the game changes when you not ready or prepared. Most of the time its a good things... for the changer, but very bad for the changed.

I think God shakes up our environment and its mostly about time you think things are great. According to biology we are suppose to adapt to changes but it seems to be hard because we just fight against them. Changes in our lives, jobs, personality, walk, etc.. can be devastating if you have walked a few miles in that direction already. The key thing is that, he has given us everything we need already for these changes. This sucks because that tells me that we are suppose to endure and adapt to the things we a facing and just trust.

My only problem is: WHY DID HE MAKES US THE WAY HE DID THEN! Why do men want so much to protect what is theirs, and give us such an ego (not a bad problem, guys.. really) that our judgment is clouded sometimes. Or when we are dis-respected, we just refuse to hear justification on any issue, until the factors we need are restored or God kicks us in the side of the head. There is something about vision their to???

Then he places us with woman (like its written), to live together.. Is that not a joke in itself! Who is just the opposite of what we men are. Provide, love, and partner mentality is great to combat the few things God placed in man. Check the next time things go down if you have either step out of line on one of the above things. Or just jump on the wrong side and throw the things out of whack... stand back and watch.

The world tells us the 3 factors of every marriage problems are sex, communication, and money. I think these are right on... but just on the surface. Take sex... men tend to want more, and when we are refused (in some cases.. other men maybe difference or just lying) we have a ego problem, like we are not needed, while the lady can love in different ways (not fair by the way). Communication... maybe your lady likes to talk about everything and you just want her to shut up, until she say something that you feel is disrespectful to you. Then square one again because, she want a partner mentality in the relationship. Someone who will be their for her and comfort her in her time... a lister. We feel disrespected and shut down, great right! Money.. can fall into a few things also like protection. If we can't provide and she doesn't feel protected.. funny how that works.

Not for anyone at all... just me jotting down something I have learned along the way from some great men and women in my life. Everything is supported by the scriptures and I have seen examples of great relationships. I guess I'm just blessed, but still fall into traps like everyone else.
