Pleasure vs. Sacrifice
What do we mean by this? Pleasure is something that we have a strong desire for and/or something that we badly want. Sacrifice is something that we ask for or desperately need, but we are not able to receive it. A sacrifice is also something that is not attained or missed out due to constraints. If there is something that you are asking for or requesting, God will assure you that it will be received, but not right now. There is a strong emphasis on pleasure. Pleasure is something that is derived through our senses. Pleasure is obtained through our personal experiences in our lives. Sometimes, the things that we enjoy most in our lives are what we acquire as pleasure. The sacrifice that we make in our personal lives comes from the experiences that were left out as a direct result of personal setbacks. Some of the sacrifices that are made comes from the times that we usually spend dealing with the things that are directly in front of our faces.
There are things that we want to have so badly that we have to place it on hold until we are able to deal with active issues or important things. For instance, relationships that is important to us such as taking care of children. Whenever our children or family members need us, there are times that we have to oblige and comply with important people in our lives. I really like spending time with important members in my family. For example, my wife if I were married will receive all of my time. However, I have to spend a lot of time listening to God & Jesus Christ. As far as other relatives and people are concerned, I have to converse with them on an as needed basis. This is because I have to spend quality time with God. You see everyone need to spend time with God. If anyone complains about you spending time with God, then there is a problem.
God is who has given me life. God is the one who has created all of the heavens and the earth. It is God and Jesus Christ, my wife as soon as I get married, and children who I’m willing to spend most of my time. Family is extremely important. It is the Institution of Religion and Family that are extremely important to me. Religion is important because everyone need to spend time reading the Bible and getting acquainted with a Power that is greater than yourself. Family is also important because it is man, woman, and children that people would like to spend time with. People who are living in the present have a desire to have a family of their own. We crave this as if it is an ice cream cone. It is like a child asking his parents to buy ice cream for them.
Next, the simple pleasures that I have personally are to spend more time getting to know God and to read all of the books that I can about a God of my own understanding. I know that God will bless me with that special female someday. I know that in a relationship, men and women must step up to the plate and perform tasks that pertain to maintaining a household as well as a decent relationship. Whenever a man meets a woman, the criteria are for that man to have all of his resources together and keep it real. A man must have a decent job or an income to sustain a household.
I know that a man should never allow a woman to pull too much weight of the household. I am a man who would a woman to chill out. I am supposed to be the man in the house and I am supposed to take care of it. I know what I have to contribute might not be what women usually desire, but it is best to be honest from the very start. A man is supposed to be honest with women when it comes to their intentions. Women are supposed to be honest when it comes to their intentions as well.
I am the type of person who will tell you directly how I feel and I also will allow you to explore all of my resources and assets if necessary. Men sometimes are reluctant to share all of their personal information with women. Men are supposed to lie all of the cards on the table and get real. Women are supposed to do the same thing. If women want an honest and truthful man in her life, she should ask God really hard for that special person. God is the one who makes that decision for you. Men the same thing applies to you. I am a man who will be honest and truthful directly to you face to face.
I have always been a face to face person when it comes to interaction. The internet itself is an idiot box just like the television. If you want something tangible you do not have to go very far in searching for it. Tangibility is very important. It is men who are jealous and resentful of each other. In our community, it is competitive in a search for a job as well as a real woman. I do not understand why it is so competitive when there are more women than men. I did not know that looking for a real woman is like searching for a bar of gold inside of the water. What is next? No one knows!!! The quest for finding that real woman is hard and it is challenging.
