Hi! I'm back! What was I doing? you might ask. I was doing crazy things like, fasting the internet... FOR A MONTH. (30 days) I realized that I was becoming too addicted to the internet. I noticed that my internet use was affecting my relationships: with God, Family, and Friends.
Before going on this fast I did a bit of research about how excessive use of technology can affect the brain. I was surprised! using the internet too much can actually put strain on your grey matter(that's your brain), which in turn can cause someone (like me) to become irritable.
Now, I'm not saying you're all crazy internet addicts. I just am.
and sometimes I just need to remind myself of who is really number one in my life.

A whole month is a long time. I've taken three or four one week breaks which have helped greatly.
I'm impressed you were able to stay away that whole time. I wouldn't have made it that far.
I didn't know that. I'm not very surprised- interet is a powerful thing.
By the way, I really like your squirrel!

His (or her) expression is very funny.

What is forever..? I shall see you again. Just after the mist has faded and time has stopped, over on the other side. Enjoy your journey and I'll enjoy mine.
I joined when this place was first established, a few months ago... But I never really did anything.
However, I feel I should get involved and talk some...
So, here I am.

CBH Ministries is an organization (similar to Focus on the Family, or Vision Forum) dedicated to using the media to praise the Lord.Aftershocker wrote:What's the CBH stand for?~JCGJ~ wrote:I used to be on the old CBH Message boards, before they took those down...

CBH stands for the "Children's Bible Hour," which was their first radio program. You may have heard of Down Gilead Lane. That is a radio program (quite similar to AiO, in many ways) created by CBH Ministries.
