interesting

**this post has been edited and improved as it was first written at a bleak season. the bleak season has since changed to....a lighthearted one so thus the edit**

SOZO, a Christian outreach ministry that particularly ministers to Healing came down to church recently.
And they conducted full day workshops for people from church who signed up for it (like say 200 people). And they didn't charge us for the workshops.
The amazing part was their sensitivity to God's voice. (surprisingly quite accurate)

Like there were cases of people with for example, childhood or teenage issues that did affect them but
they never really really dealt with the issues properly, nor sought help
and some might have even forgot the issue altogether!

But the thing is the issue itself resurfaced in later stages of their lives, like say in dealing with a certain type of people,
they may get more agitated or may get more fearful etc. And people around wonder why on earth this person is
acting this way or simply label them as "always like that" or "he/she's like that one".

For this kind of cases and people and labels, 65% could be because of their parents (can be a mother or a father issue),
siblings, close friends who brought about hurts, rejection, fear, etc. BUT there's still 35% which is their personal choice. I mean come on.....how can issues be 100% due to what happens to us? There's still the Holy Spirit (for Christians) to guide etc.

So if you meet people with "interesting traits" they most likely may have, childhood roots. But i still want to mention the 35% is the individual's choice of how to react to the bad situation.

Had some strange dream i had on fri night about 3 strange life stories of 3 guys (3 different stages in life), oh well....
