I am not drop dead gorgeous- my hair doesn't fall perfectly in place, I don't get my nails done or wear gobs of makeup; my body is not proportionate nor is it symmetrical.
I'm not a successful business woman; I'm not a movie star nor am I the next American Idol. I don't have a bunch of kids and I'm not a successful entrepreneur.
I'm not rich. I don't live in a huge home nor did I design my home or have it built just for me. I don't have a second home or a vacation home. In fact, we don't even have a second car.
I don't buy the latest and greatest styles of accessories and clothes. I can't afford to shop most stores unless it's clearance or a major sale. Therefore- I buy most of my clothes at thrift stores.
I am not an excellent cook... or a chef... or a baker. But I save money by attempting to cook on my own.
I don't worry about eating organic- that is for people that don't like themselves. I eat anything I please and the only time I feel guilty about it is when I splurge on sweets or high sodium foods.
I eat fast food. And I enjoy it.
I am not politically up to date and I'm probably very ignorant when it comes to politics. I am not racist. If you ever accuse me of being racist, I am going to assume you don't know know me.
Basically- I don't care what the rest of the world does. I cannot ever see myself being so wrapped up in these things and letting any of it define me. What a sad and empty life those people live that try to live like anything I have described.My identity is in Christ. I hold fast to HIS promises- HE values me. HE finds me beautiful and unique. I don't need approval from the world. And I certainly don't need to fit in OR stand out. I am me. I am who God created me to be. Nothing more. Nothing less. And I'm comfortable with that. If you're uncomfortable with who I am or with my choices- I suggest that you take that up with God.
Why do you say that eating organic is for people who don't like themselves? :(
