Yes, I find it difficult turning my head to the left now because it feels strained.
Not that anyone really notices, but some people have probably felt snubbed because they sat on my left side at the table.
I just can't turn my head to the left like I can the right. Too much Stemetil and Panadol. Made my neck go all stiff and spasm when I was a teenager. Think it tore a muscle or something in my neck.

If you want to have a conversation with me at the table then you've got to sit on my right-hand side.
And if you sit on my left don't be offended if I don't talk to you as much as the person on my right. :P

I've not known anyone who committed suicide though.

Recently, the folks there have begun to rally and walk the streets to bring awareness to the the youth to stop this. This is lead and supported by Christian folks several whom I know...

Have a blessed Day!

I tried committing suicide a couple times as a teen. It obviously failed 8-}2
I've had friends who have killed themselves. It's a pity.
My failed attempts and near attempts brought me to knowing the power of hope and reason for faith. The necessity and love and power of YHWH.

And my friends successes have shown the power and current authority of darkness.

In the last few months i have had neck spams and tightness when i turn my head to the right....so if i sit on your right i think we will both be ok to talk to each other without pain :P

but what the heck does that have to do with suicide? I kept waiting for the connection but it just never came :shakehead:
I've not known anyone who committed suicide though.
Finally... :P

Then you may like this. It's their version of Psalm 40.

Yeah, having been at the edge of life and then being rescued by God, that changes you a lot.

Also, am much stronger person now. (I think.)
But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good.
-- 1 Thessalonians 5:21

For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.
