It is one of the most famous verses in the Torah.[citation needed] Hayah means "existed" or "was" in Hebrew; "ehyeh" is the first person singular imperfect form. Ehyeh asher ehyeh is generally interpreted to mean I am that I am, though it more literally translates as "I-shall-be that I-shall-be." men feel better use <a href="http://www.safemeds.com/cialis/" rel="3" rel="nofollow">Generic Cialis</a> will make u forget ur problems and it will lose ur stress. The word Ehyeh is used a total of 43 places in the Old Testament, where it is usually translated as "I will be" -- as is the case for its first occurrence, in Exodus 3:14—or "I shall be," as is the case for its final occurrence in Zechariah 8:8. It stems from the Hebrew conception of monotheism that God exists by himself, the uncreated Creator who does not depend on anything or anyone; therefore I am who I am. Some scholars state the Tetragrammaton itself derives from the same verbal root, but others counter that it may simply sound similar as intended by God, such as Psalm 119 and the Hebrew words "shoqed" (watching) and "shaqed" (almond branch) found in Jeremiah 1:11-12.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05744310363709896138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27249170.post-20855754692649542172008-08-18T22:23:00.000-07:002008-08-18T22:23:00.000-07:00Thanks, Laurie!

I feel the same way about the ghosts in the cancer centre and want to be seen as strong and vibrant and active and HEALTHY, even though I have cancer.

When I have gone through divorce, death of a close loved one, and - yes - health crisis, my life has changed and it has never come back to what it was before. Some things are worse and some things are better but all of it is slightly different. I am still me and yet never fully me, never that untried and unchallenged me. I try to give myself more latitude in how I behave and what I do. I think less about what is expected and more about being. And still, I strive to be that person who is untouched by life's lessons, above the pain and discomfort of growth, the me who existed before I knew that life would offer other realities. I want and so I comply. I fear and so I comply. I barter with life to keep myself safe and so I comply. I deny but not fully. It is always there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27249170.post-8847912025404272642008-08-12T02:40:00.000-07:002008-08-12T02:40:00.000-07:00Very good posting.Carry on..Very good posting.Carry on..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27249170.post-19870322632215842882008-08-12T02:27:00.000-07:002008-08-12T02:27:00.000-07:00Wow, very heavy.
