Theos-Talk Archives (June 1998 Message tt00501)

Well, finally, I wrote my thoughts real good.  The perspiration paid
off.
Dear Alan, when you have a minute, you can do me a favour please...
a)  What *does* that word "Amen" really mean
b)  Had a discussion recently about people seeming to need affirmation
of themselves and their ideas.  The person with whom I was debating said
that he knew he sought affirmation and kept at it until he got it and
then put that one in his toolkit and went onto the next one and he
believed we all did that.  I boldly said I didn't think we did.  Bad
move.  Here I am today getting a good-type feeling from your response.
Not that my life depends on affirmations by others of myself, and we
forge on with life without them, but it's just been proved to me that it
does happen. Why?
Cheers
Annette
