When we get comfortable with one thing, life just throws us somethings else. Keeps things interesting anyway.Stephanie Humphreyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13553998075443712084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-418870747476000878.post-30512301863821176852007-10-12T11:24:00.000-06:002007-10-12T11:24:00.000-06:00Self confidence is a hard skill to master - I'm on...Self confidence is a hard skill to master - I'm on your side. I thought once I left the skinny, gawky, brace-faced pimpled 16 year old behind I'd be a confident accomplished woman, but I still have many of the same fears and anxieties. I'm also just learning how important those are to learning and growth.Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03131231510506524156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-418870747476000878.post-39936068219815443312007-10-12T11:05:00.000-06:002007-10-12T11:05:00.000-06:00I love the Far Side too -- never fails to crack me...I love the Far Side too -- never fails to crack me up.<BR/><BR/>God sees us the way we see flowers.

The good...Oh, to look in the mirror is to see all. The good and the bad. Can we live with it? No. That's why we don't look in the mirror. Those who do- are either very high and mighty or they are low on bended knee seeking forgiveness from our Father of all their weaknesses.<BR/><BR/>You are right though- we like to see the great qualities in all around us...then compare them to our not so good qualities. It's very self defeating. A wonderful tool satan loves to use.<BR/><BR/>Sometimes it takes others to point out our good qualities to value them. Instead of shrugging them off...ponder them, even accept them. It's hard to do- but if we do that we will grow stronger and more confident in ourselves. What happens when we are confident in our selves? We can rub it off on others! By spreading love and cheer from our hearts we can lift others too. :) <BR/><BR/>The Far Side happens to be one of my favorite comics. I have it as my desk calendar myself. <BR/><BR/>Today:<BR/><BR/>A picture of a couple sitting on their livig room couch. She is holding a book in her lap with her mouth open, {speaking to her husband}- He is reading the newspaper. In the back ground you see the front door ajar and a duck walking down the hall coming toward the livingroom.<BR/><BR/>The caption: : "Here he comes, Earl...Remember, be gentle but firm...we are absolutely,positively, NOT driving him south this winter."<BR/><BR/>I got a good giggle- So cute! Especially since I'm a parent now. :)Autumn Ableshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09550322222515752199noreply@blogger.com
