Homework for the Heartbroken!!! Must do!
Sun, 07-31-2005 - 1:12am

I have gotten positive feedback on my posts, so I thought I would share with everyone some homework, to put you and your emotions into perspective and get some closure to aid in speeding the painful process. This may sound corny, but do it anyway!!!!

Assignment ONE: Assignment one is to help you put things in perspective as far as your emotions are concerned. By the time you finish blessed12005 homework assignments, you will have some closure and clarity through your pain: Keep up, this will be fun, I promise..I promise you will thank me later.....

1. Get a 3-subject notebook, and keep it by your bed.
3. In the first subject on the first page, I want all of you to title it "(your ex's name)"
4. On the next line title the left Pros and on the right Cons, Go down and list all of the pros and cons about your ex, and BE HONEST and SPECIFIC!

Here is my example:
Jason

Pros /////////////////Cons
Good looking ///////////////Dressed like a bum
Nice teeth ///////////////Lied to me over and over about small stuff
Nice shoes ////////////////Was irressponsible when it came to money
/////////////////////////////////Made me feel like less of a woman
///////////////////////////////// Never complimented me
//////////////////////////////// Didnt like kids
///////////////////////////////// Would yell at me all the time
//////////////////////////////////Never had time for me

Keep going down until you run out of pros and cons... Now on the same page where you have some room or on the next page, write a small paragraph summarizing your list. BE HONEST....For example, with my list
I can conclude that Jason was good looking, but looks werent all that compared to his cons, he didnt treat me right and now that I am looking at my cons about him, I cant believe that I wasted time with him...He yelled at me, and didnt like kids. I dont want that in a future husband. I cant believe I settled for that jerk!!

Finally, put away your notebook and pray..... This concludes assignment ONE

Ladies, keep this notebook by your bed and do this assignment before you go to sleep..

This is assignment ONE and it is due before the week is out....ASSIGNMENT TWO will come soon...

I am going to teach some of you to be strong and be prepared for your future husbands...Your future husband is going to want a strong wife...and I am going to help you all!!! Do your homework and respond by saying, "Blessed I did assignment one, I am ready for assignment TWO!!!"

Assignment TWO will be fun....

Love,
