  1. Here's the list, and welcome Xiahida! Also remember not to post twice in a row...
  2. I'm going to assume you've read the whole series. Well, I'll put my thoughts in a spoiler tag in case you haven't. Oh, and you might want to edit the title? It's not required, but it pops up on the front page of the Shard, and could potentially spoil people who haven't read to that part.
  3. Oh my gosh I did that too!
  4. Oooh, I like the new profile picture!

  5. I was going to say something in response, but then I realized that He could say it better than me: "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." John 14:27

    Hey

    Welcome, @Zelda Goldberry! So glad you're here!
  8. Really? I didn't think that Bored Panda did that kind of stuff...
  9. I spy a lurker. You know too much about this on your first post to have never been on here before. That was quite a sentence. Welcome to the Shard!
  10. It's not in your head! I've had some experiences where... I don't even remember WHY I was crying or WHY I was lonely, but I was. My mom asked if I wanted to come with her to the store. And I ended up playing a song that spoke to me so perfectly that it was as if it had been written exactly for that situation, and exactly for me. (All This Time by Britt Nicole) And I believe that Jesus knows each and every one of us perfectly. But as @Mason Wheeler said, the only way to know for yourself is to try and see if there are real results. And you can see my recent SU for my most recent strong experience, but the only way to know for sure is to try for yourself. There's more info here: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/comeuntochrist
  11. With joy! Thank you SO MUCH for the compliment! I was going for spooky in the last chapter, did it come across?
  12. *double posts* I've got another chapter done! I'm going to tag people... If in the future you don't want to be tagged, please inform me! I won't be offended, I promise. @Cinnamon @AltonicKeys I fixed the chapter thing.
  13. But if you say it out loud it's said like, "the The Longest Thread team." And that sounds dumb.
  14. Shouldn't this just be "I have left TLT team "? Because the first "T" in TLT stands for "the" already.
  15. I already posted this on the Members of the Church thread, but it was an incredible experience for me, so I'm going to put it here too. It's about my beliefs.

    I had a really spiritual experience two nights ago.

    I haven't really mentioned this on here before but, since I'm the youngest in my family, I'm the only sibling at home. 

    And... it sucks sometimes. I miss my siblings so much. It's a big gap between me and my next youngest sibling... but we're close. And... it's really hard, knowing that to some/one of my siblings, my home... their home, once... will never be their home again. My brother... has a home of his own. And I barely remember the time before he left home. 

    And that hurts.

    And hearing in books about sibling rivalries and among friends... they don't seem to care about their siblings. They don't seem to care, when their brothers and sisters leave home, that the people they've grown up beside aren't there anymore. It feels, sometimes, like I'm the only person in the world who misses my siblings. I just felt... alone in feeling this kind of pain. I was curled up in the corner of my bed when I felt like I should go to the window.

    And then I looked out the window, and saw the moon and thought "we've been on that!" And it reminded me of this video:

    Spoiler

     

    It was unthinkable, unimaginable that we could be on the moon.
    And it was unthinkable, unimaginable that...
    Jesus suffered for us. For me. He knows every kind of pain. He's experienced what I'm experiencing right now. He knows what it's like to have siblings move away, and I am in no way alone. 
    And I realized that He knows the deepest, darkest, stupidest parts of our souls. And he loves us, wholly, purely, and completely, anyway. 
    The Spirit was washing over me, and I knew that Jesus knew exactly what I was feeling. I imagined Him sitting next to me and wrapping his arms around me and holding me.

    I have a testimony that He knows us. All of all of us. And He loves us. All of all of us.

      I'm so happy that I could brighten your day. Although saying I did isn't quite accurate... you know who I mean. I hope you can feel God's love during your trials.

      And to be clear, I'm not scolding people who aren't as close to their siblings. It's just that I think I'm uncommonly close with mine, and I'm sad that it sometimes seems like I'm alone in missing them.

      I didn't read it as scolding at all.

      That's good! I was a little worried rereading mine, seeing it from a scolding perspective.

      I didn't see it as scolding either, I think it's awesome that you have that.

  17. Gone, struggling not to fall to his hands and feet, walked like a normal child into the... the thing.
  18. @Cinnamon you should make a thread telling everyone about the pfp thing with Haly.
  19. *wins because philosophy(see above)*
  20. Meaning a friend stole my device.
  21. I put this on my wall after darkening some of the shading and darkening his eyebrows... now every time I go in my room he stares at me and it makes me sad. Also scared.
