Just because of the 'stereotype' of 'Christian' does NOT mean that I have to be bitterwood/wormwood or even stale 'wood'..
In 1931, studio mogul Sam Goldwyn believed the famed Parisian couturier could make his movies—and his stars—more glamorous, and invited the designer to come to Hollywood. What resulted was an object lesson in the difference between costumes and couture.

Having learned to sew during her six years at Aubazine, Chanel found employment as a seamstress.[12] When not sewing, she sang in a cabaret frequented by cavalry officers. Chanel made her stage debut singing at a cafe-concert (a popular entertainment venue of the era) in a Moulins pavilion, La Rotonde. She was a poseuse, a performer who entertained the crowd between star turns. The money earned was what they managed to accumulate when the plate was passed. It was at this time that Gabrielle acquired the name "Coco" when she spent her nights singing in the cabaret, often the song, "Who Has Seen Coco?" She often liked to say the nickname was given to her by her father.[13] Others believe "Coco" came from Ko Ko Ri Ko, and Qui qu'a vu Coco, or it was an allusion to the French word for kept woman, cocotte.[14] As an entertainer, Chanel radiated a juvenile allure that tantalized the military habitués of the cabaret.[6]
In 1906, Chanel worked in the spa resort town of Vichy. Vichy boasted a profusion of concert halls, theatres, and cafés where she hoped to achieve success as a performer. Chanel's youth and physical charms impressed those for whom she auditioned, but her singing voice was marginal and she failed to find stage work.[9]:49 Obliged to find employment, she took work at the Grande Grille, where as a donneuse d'eau she was one whose job was to dispense glasses of the purportedly curative mineral water for which Vichy was renowned.[9]:45 When the Vichy season ended, Chanel returned to Moulins, and her former haunt La Rotonde. She now realised that a serious stage career was not in her future
At Moulins, Chanel met a young French ex-cavalry officer and textile heir, Étienne Balsan. At the age of twenty-three, Chanel became Balsan's mistress
It was a lifestyle of self-indulgence. Balsan's wealth allowed the cultivation of a social set that reveled in partying and the gratification of human appetites, with all the implied accompanying decadence. Balsan showered Chanel with the baubles of "the rich life"—diamonds, dresses, and pearls. Biographer Justine Picardie, in her 2010 study Coco Chanel: The Legend and the Life, suggests that the fashion designer's nephew, André Palasse, supposedly the only child of her sister Julia-Berthe who had committed suicide, was Chanel's child by Balsan.
In 1908, Chanel began an affair with one of Balsan's friends, Captain Arthur Edward 'Boy' Capel.[16] In later years, Chanel reminisced of this time in her life: "two gentlemen were outbidding for my hot little body."[17]:19 Capel, a wealthy member of the English upper class, installed Chanel in an apartment in Paris
The couple spent time together at fashionable resorts such as Deauville, but despite Chanel's hopes that they would settle together, Capel was never faithful to her.[16] Their affair lasted nine years. Even after Capel married an English aristocrat, Lady Diana Wyndham in 1918, he did not completely break off with Chanel. He died in a car accident on 21 December 1919.[20][21] A roadside memorial at the site of Capel's accident is said to have been commissioned by Chanel.[22] Twenty-five years after the event, Chanel, then residing in Switzerland, confided to her friend, Paul Morand, "His death was a terrible blow to me. In losing Capel, I lost everything. What followed was not a life of happiness, I have to say.
Love of the 'heart'... Even such 'true' loves as this is closer to God and The LORD and to Christ Messiah and 'loves - untrue'.
Although she probably lived a 'risque' 'feminine' life, she might have found a true 'love' amidst those 'baubles'.
'What followed was not a life of happiness, I have to say.'
a life... still living.. a life...
Ecclesiastes 7:2 "
It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that
is the end of all men;...."
What might this mean? What could this mean? What might this mean to those that live and have life because God is not a God of the dead but He is a God of the living...
Matthew 22:31-32 "But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living."
(J)ohn 3:5 '(J)esus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and
of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.'
Romans 6:4 "Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life."
Colossians 2:12 "Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with
him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead."
Oh, right.. Another thing...
Why does the LGBT community adamantly insist that 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 refers to the The Kingdom of Heaven, as in 'life after death'?
1 Corinthians 6:9
"Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,"
This verse refers to The Kingdom of God, not to The Kingdom of Heaven....
So why? And why should 'believers' be kept 'down' because of something they claim but is 'untrue'...
Or would 'being' baptized prevent, even further, The Holy Spirit from 'consecrating' and 'sanctifying', even the LGBT 'person', who was 'baptized'?
Because IF i'm LGBT and IF I'm supposed to NOT be allowed 'in',,, I guess that would also be true IF I was 'baptized' ALSO, right?
Or am i 'interpreting' more than 'reading'?
Two persons brought another and asked.. sir... this person was continually attempting to make you look as if you were trying to lead all into hell. What would you like to say?
The person said, 'away from me, ye who seek to have me 'condemned''!
The person, while walking away, wondered.. 'why would such possible 'condemnations' have been brought to 'me'? What might I have done'??
If these sorts of possibilities continued and if the person ended up 'cursing' at God or even cursing God Himself, would that be 'unjust' or might it be, 'not strong enough'?
OR... might it 'show' that the person was never really 'baptized' or 'sincere' ever; even in the first place and during his own 'life'?
a fake believer... rare, indeed...
I can 'trick' most of the person(s) most of the time; I can even trick the One whom I don't/might not even believe in... some of the time but not all of the time.
It might be called 'grace' which allows for this to have an effect on 'others' nearby; some believing, some not, some too tired to care..
If I was to tell you that NASA found a 'hole' in the sun the size of 50 Earth's wide in 2015, would you believe me, call me a hoaxter or 'investigate' to see which you might do; believe me, call me a hoaxter or 'not care' either way?
And if I was to tell you that the latin verb Fucare, which has the neutral state; fuco, is probably where the word fuc* comes from, would you believe me, call me a hoaxter or call me obscene?
Because to call me obscene and even 'treat' me as an obscene person because of the use of that word, fuc* and even with the word 'mother' attached to the beginning of it, would and could more likely and probably be 'accepted' by the majority public, as truth that such word(s) ARE truly obscene... not to be used...
Another example...
If I was to say someone was 'stupid'... it might have the same 'result' from the public.. *rude, they might say...
But if I was to say that the word 'stupid' comes from the word 'stupor', to be in a state of conscious 'stupor' or being 'stupid', would that change any ideas of what 'stupid' actually means?
Okay.. another example...
If I was to say that the word 'gender' was never used to define a 'sex'; either male or female before a certain current decade, would you believe me?
Sexologist John Money introduced the terminological distinction between biological sex and gender as a role in 1955. Before his work, it was uncommon to use the word gender to refer to anything but grammatical categories.[1][2] However, Money's meaning of the word did not become widespread until the 1970s, when feminist theory embraced the concept of a distinction between biological sex and the social construct of gender. Today, the distinction is followed in some contexts, especially the social sciences[5][6] and documents written by the World Health Organization (WHO).
What does that mean... uncommon except in grammatical purposes?
Masculine nouns are used with articles like el or un and have adjectives that end in -o, while female
nouns use the articles la or una and have adjectives that end in -a. To know if a
noun is
masculine or
feminine, you should look to see what letter(s) the word ends with.
You cannot call a kitchen; El Cucina nor can you call a bathroom, La Bano. No spanish speaker might understand...
* talk about strict 'legalism', eh?
So rather than assume a person is againt another person or persons, ask or see if they whisper 'death unto them', under their breath or if they 'pray' for their well-being and success.
After all, Groove is in the heart, right?
Whoever said, 'fun' was 'bad or wrong' or 'evil' for that matter??
But what kind of 'fun' can a person have with 'strange'?
Harry Potter and dragons and such... 'point and 'shazam''.....
is that even possible?
