The act of pouring cereal into a bowl of milk leftover from a bowl of cereal. Instead of throwing out the milk, one may proportionalize, and pour some more cereal into the bowl in order to properly and deliciously finish the milk. Often, there will be about half of the milk leftover. Thus, one would pour about half of the amount of cereal than initially poured.
Jack: Yum, that was a delicious bowl of cereal that I just ate.
Jill: Hey! Don’t throw out that leftover milk! Pour some more cereal into the bowl and proportionolize.
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.
