[quote=Anonymous]He’s running out of the room because you have an amazing life, and decades of potential joy and service to the communities around you, and all you’re doing is sitting around and b******* at him.  And if he tells you the objective TRUTH (which is: you’re a basket case and wasting your life being negative, and will continue to waste many more decades if you continue to CHOOSE to act like this, then you’ll die a bitter / lonely old crank), then you’ll go berserk on him.

You don’t need counseling. You need to pull yourself together. There was a couple in my small hometown who were “barren” and never had kids, yet they brought so much joy and grace to all of us.  They were always there - full of smiles and encouragement - at every church function, high school sporting event, graduation party, wedding, chamber of commerce meeting, etc. for as long as I remember. They fostered kids occasionally. They sponsored kids discreetly who needed help buying sports equipment.  They were like the grandparents of the whole town, and all of us ended up with richer lives because of them.

If the wife would have sat around the house whinging, it would have been a waste of her life and the husband’s. (And if she’d have been that kind of wicked person AND had children…  well then she’d have STILL been miserable and have raised miserable kids to boot.)

I despise celebrity pastors and often dislike Rick Warren’s stances, but you could benefit from reading and comprehending just the first few sentences of “The Purpose Driven Life”.
