Day 3

Today's topic:  Something you have to forgive yourself for.

Yikes.  Today's topic is scary stuff.....  There are 2 things that I have a hard time forgiving myself for.  Okay, if we're being honest, there are 3.....

One has to do with something that happened in college.  Something that changed my life and the life of another person forever.  Now, I will say that I wasn't totally the one to blame, but I put myself in a position that I shouldn't have.  For that, I need to forgive myself.  The thing is, I keep saying that I have forgiven myself {I've totally forgiven the other person}, but I keep returning to it and wishing I would've done something different.  Guess I really haven't forgiven myself...

The 2nd has to do with something I "did" to my exhusband while we were still married.  I honestly feel very guilty for this and I wish there was some way that I could go back and undo it.  But, it happened and I can't.  I guess the only choice I have is to pray about it {some more} and move on.  Besides, if I can't forgive myself, then how will God ever forgive me?

And well the 3rd... the 3rd is something that is in progress and I have the ability to change it still.  I just have to come up with the courage to do so.  {Cue Anxiety}

Day 2

I forgot to tell ya'll, I got this challenge from You + Me = We

Today's topic is Something You Love About Yourself.

Isn't it sad that we can think of a billion things we dislike about ourselves, but struggle to come up with things we love about ourselves?

Physically

I love my eyes.  I think they're pretty unique in shape and I have a gold dot in my left eye.   I get lots of compliments about my eyes, so I think that's why it's easy for me to say that I love them. 

Non-Physical

I love that I care so much.  Seriously, I want to save the world.  I really wish there was something that I could do for each person {and animal} that is hurting or in need of something.  Seriously.  I also love that I'm strong willed and stubborn.  I will try my darnest to do something that someone says that I can't do.  It's a thing of mine.  LOL  :)

Day 1

I've decided that I'm going to do the 30 Days of Truth Challenge.  Mainly because I'm sure ya'll are tired of hearing about Grad School and my lack of running.  :)  You're Welcome.

Today's Topic:  Something You Hate About Yourself.  

Ouch.

Let's see...

Physically

I really dislike the back of my thighs.  Who doesn't, right?  That's probably the only thing that I really, really hate about myself.  And, I'm pretty sure that I could change it {some} if I went to the gym like...at all.  But, alas, Grad School takes up my time right now - darn it, I mentioned that again. 

No, but seriously, I plan on going back to the gym at some regular occurrence soon.  Really soon.  Then, maybe I wouldn't hate the back of my thighs so much.  :)

Non-Physically

I don't like how I get so anxious in social settings - especially around people that I don't know that well or who aren't normally in my circle of friends.  This is one of the main reasons why I don't "do" a lot of stuff with my friends.  Sure, we keep up on Facebook, but that's about it.  Plus, I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy sitting on the couch, watching some good tv with the hubs instead.  :)
