Man is of one flesh, a beautiful being designed with kindness, warmth, love, passion, and desire. The body of man and a woman is sacred, YET has irresistible characteristics that leads us to sin. The body of man and a woman is sacred, YET is merely but flesh! It is the bridegroom whom we've come to love and adore and who NEVER leaves our side, I hope you understand this.
When you are making love to a man make him your one and only. When you are making love to a woman make HER your one and only. Remember, it is the LORD we serve; our bodies are mere flesh. I understand there are those who are not committed to Christ, therefore could NEVER commit to a human being; a beautiful, desirable human being might I add. So.....if he brings you nothing but pain....Let him go! But remember, there will always be tumultuous times because we are but mere flesh; humans are imperfect by default :(
We are the flesh of ONE LORD/ keep your name sacred and know he adores you more than anything.
When you love/love only one man. In times of strife- Pray; go to church even if it's when no other being is there, meditate, then pamper yourself like you've never done before. Take a brisk walk through the park, but never let sin take your body...Never do anything that's going to make you feel isolated, vulnerable, exploited or alone, whether you're a man or a woman, never let another take you away from you. It's not what God intends.
Monogamy NOT polygamy leads to self love and self-respect. It doesn't matter if you are a man or a woman...never desecrate the one man, one body, one true love of your life.....That's You! In God We
Trust/In God We MUst Love.

Caring Thoughts,
Sharon Maria-Perrotta Thourot
New Testament: Ephesians
17 So this I say, and affirm together with the Lord, that you walk no longer just as the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind, 18 being darkened in their understanding, excluded from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their heart; 19 and they, having become callous, have given themselves over to sensuality for the practice of every kind of impurity with greediness. 20 But you did not learn Christ in this way, 21 if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught in Him, just as truth is in Jesus, 22 that, in reference to your former manner of life, you lay aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit, 23 and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind, 24 and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth.
25 Therefore, laying aside falsehood, SPEAK TRUTH EACH ONE of you WITH HIS NEIGHBOR, for we are members of one another. 26 BE ANGRY, AND yet DO NOT SIN; do not let the sun go down on your anger, 27 and do not give the devil an opportunity. 28 He who steals must steal no longer; but rather he must labor, performing with his own hands what is good, so that he will have something to share with one who has need. 29 Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear. 30 Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. 32 Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.

Matthew 26:26-28
Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

"Happy First Day of Spring"
...............Is what I said to my children as I sent them off to school on their last day of PSSA's
(Pennsylvania State Assessments). Spring is finally here but who are we
to complain? We've had springlike (if not summer) weather all month! To think
we are in March and that the temperature has reached the 70's, is remarkable!
As I
am home gaining new strength (trying to anyway) as I practice my arts and my
yoga and my readings as well as my writing, I must say the weather sure came at
a perfect time for me! The east coast is okay I suppose.... I know there
are many who would have loved the snow, but having this springlike
weather in March sure minimized my cabin fever.......
The East Coast
may not be perfect, not by any stretch, but if you look around you could still find beauty in nature
Is this global warming? or is it mere
luck? he suggested........
Or is it either I imposed........

The author--I intend to address three themes for the renewal of the sacrament.
Me--For now, I am only giving you one.
Me--For now, I am only giving you one.
1.
A clear, unequivocal Christological Foundation of the practice of the Sacrament of Confession is necessary for any successful renewal of the Sacrament. The life and mission of Jesus Christ can be summarized in one word: confession. According to the usage of St. Augustine, the Latin word,. “Confessiones” means not only “confessio peccati” (confession of sin), but also confessio laudis(confession of praise) and confessio fidei (confession of faith). Jesus habitually confesses, admits and reveals himself through these three confessiones before the Father to be his only begotten Son. Always and everywhere he confesses himself to be the gift of the Father. For the Father is his source and origin. The acme of Jesus’s confessional drama was reached during his passion and death. Then the sinless one voluntarily underwent an “exchange of places” with all the sinners of the world. In the Last Supper, he prayed, ”Father, the hour has come: glorify thy Son that the Son may glorify thee” (Jn. 17: 1). Aware of his unique relation to the Father, he accepted the unimaginable burden of all the world’s “No” to God. Every human being throughout history has loaded his or her sins upon the Innocent One whose outstretched arms embraced them all in love. The glory of Jesus’s self-manifestation attracted Andrew. Philip invited the skeptical Nathaniel to ”Come and See.” Watching and listening to Jesus, they eventually accepted his actions during his suffering and death as the original model of a disciple’s confession. Yet, while having known that God claimed to have so loved the world that he gave his only Son, Arthur Miller, the 20th century American playwright, asserted, “Maybe I could believe in God if he believed in me”.

Why God Made Women: "Journalist Point of View"
"Everything in moderation," Not to much and not to little, yet somewhere in the middle, is the balance between Woman and the reality of her World.... I have always relied on this adage as a guideline in all that I set
out to do.... Art, music, soft spoken words, laughter, a mother's loving demeanor, musical
paradigms, biblical parables, and perhaps even the anger of a woman is what's needed to
describe my journalistic point of view of the world; the planet we call MOTHER Earth!
The unique balance of spiritual and inspirational thoughts that I have shared with you
have now become my essay; my arguments, reflections, and observations
of daily life. To pay reverence means to be in control of who you are;
Woman was not designed for the cruelty brought on by a society
that could only tarnish what is so rare and beautiful.
To shun this lovely rare creature who is full of life
and intelligence (never tell her she's not!)
is abandoning oneself for it is SHE who
gave YOU life! To carry a child
in her womb for nine months
or, in my case, 42 weeks in
stead of 38..... then bring her
son or daughter into the
world and nurse this
child from her bosom so that the child could develop her immunity.......
only GOD's LOVE could be so
GRACIOUS,
so relentless to create a woman for
such a purpose.
She is strong, yet sensitive
Happy, Helpful, and Honest
Adores her children & pets;
Realizes that her needs are last
Only cares about what makes
others happy
Needs love and nourishment in
order to grow!
Only a WOMAN could empower her curves to BARE a CHILD; only a woman could have the desire and the stamina to be a caretaker, homemaker; hold down a career while pursuing her vocation and furthering her education. NO drugs, NO consumption of alcohol, NO self inflicted pain; just INNER LOVE that is mistaken for weakness....
GOD BLESS YOU

"Are All Blogger's Journalists?"
I thought I should point out how important it is to research this topic before you attempt to write your next blog. The article, originated by John C. Dvorak of PC MAG.com, involved the argument that bloggers do not have the same rights to protection as do journalists who are employed by reputable organizations such as The New York Times. On the other hand, there are those who oppose this argument stating that the Constitution gives writers of today (yes, this means us, bloggers), the right to freedom of speech and, unless what you are writing is unethical, considered disorderly conduct or defamation of character and could lead you into court, you could very well call yourself a journalist.
Regarding this matter, I was drawn to one article in particular -- Jeremy Porter of PRWeek and PRNewswire had some very enlightening comments that I completely agreed with. You see, like Porter, the first thing I'd consider is who is the source and where is it coming from? The first thing I thought about the night I decided to start writing my blog was the source I planned to use.
First, I was thinking about using Literary writers such as Emily Dickinson, Samuel Clemens and such. But I know there are many who will still argue with such writers regardless of their fame and stature throughout history. So, I then thought how unbelievable would it be to identify my source as the Holy Bible. I love theology and I love Jesus Christ, and so I posed the question to him, (which is what I do from time to time), "what source should I use to support my writings?" and, Wallah, along came the response (The Bible, but of course!) which jumped into my head. In my studies, my professors have always stressed the importance of using reputable sources, and now it is ingrained in my beliefs and as part of my teachings.
Anyway, Jeremy Porter revealed his talent as a journalist and a comedian (no pun intended) for as I read his review to a student, we began laughing so hard that we (literally) broke down in tears! I love his raw, yet agreeable, commentary on whether bloggers could or should be considered journalists....... He also argues that if you are simply taking information from other bloggers (like the 91% who do), this does not make you a journalist.... On the other hand, if you are finding valuable resources, as do newspaper journalists that are considered credible, then you're okay to classify yourself a journalist writer! Check out his article @ blogjournalistics.com ! Are Bloggers Journalists? dated April 6, 2010.
Here is the quote by Jeremy Porter my student and I found pretty comical to say the least.....Does this signal a lack of sophistication and comfort with social media among traditional journalists, or do they know something bloggers don’t, like the best sources aren’t found in a sea of tweets? It’s probably a mixture of both. If you read this out loud (like I did) perhaps you will see the raw humor as did Jason and I ; o )
