I've read this site for a while, and it has given some small amount of succour given the understanding of the body here. Now and for many years, I've felt forsaken over the whole business - there seems nominal forgiveness in scripture, but it gives no comfort, and accompanying mixed messages. I've never allowed myself to do anything whatsoever, but still feel between maudlin and hopelessly damned; I live my life through discipline and would have nothing otherwise.
My query, for what it is, is this: How does one get through life with this burden/situation; how do some things go above and beyond the negatives and the darkness. I seek a little qualifying support, for want of a different term.
