Design Patterns 

In programming, things work by names. Therefore, if you have to change something, add something, remove something, it normally takes a lot of work, as your have to re-implement the names.

Design Patterns is a successful attempt to eliminate the frustration by helping you create a separate interface (where you tell the program what things do) from your classes (how you implement actions).

While it is commonly used in programming, it is also used in architecture.
I used to think real programmers subclassed everything until I found out about design patterns.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)

church hurt 

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.
