@pennynoodles A woman once got really upset with me for holding a door open for her---I just looked at her totally bemused.

@pennynoodles Many times I have held the door for one person and 10 others tuck in for me to hold the door for them ,I am a nice guy ,I don't mind
But come on ,,and they do that if they don't have the right away driving too
Let one person turn in front of you ,,you may as well either push up with a
"hit me attitude " or prepare to sit through another red light .
But in the store the line forms for check out ,guess who is at the end ,
and just as its my turn to reach the register the sign gets turned off
The lady says "sorry this lane is closed ",puts up a closed sign and walks off ..
Then I have to get into another long ass line ,
always behind a complainer or someone with a stack of coupons .
I can only stand so long and then my pain is so bad I want to vomit
I know He don't mind the occasional why
But I have to ask "lord what did I do where I sowed this "?
So on Christmas eve one year I am having a bad day
I hated Christmas ,I didn't know were my kids were ,and on of my daughters was born in Christmas ,making it even more sad for me ,but I tried to make the most of it for my wife ,,but because I hated it ,I was a last minute shopper .
I see a sign that says "[b]wise men still seek Him[/b] " ,I think to myself that's cool ,,but again ,I am holding the door and people just rush in ,like I am a door man ,,and as I get to the counter they announce the store is close ,to please exit the store "come on folks our employees want to spend Christmas eve with their families too "
And I say thats it ,,from now on I am letting the damn door go and I don't care if it hits someone in the face ..
And my Mom says "Son!!! I didn't raise you that way " !!!
No Mom you didn't raise me at all so don't even go there ..she looks hurt but I am mad ,and it was the truth ,,I raised myself
The next month ,,my wife leaves me
I did a lot of repenting over that night
And I always hold the door ,,even if I am hurting so bad I want to vomit
