JOYFUL LIFE

 


     This is an unfortunate truth too many of use spend our lives hiding parts of us to be accepted by others.  It is very sad that to be accepted in the by others we have to put on a mask or lives under unreal expectations. 

     Only as we get older and a little wiser about life we learn that our quirks, differences and imperfections are what give is character.  They are not flaws at all.  They are part of us.  God made us certain ways for a reason.  The way you look and see things is not bad at all.  I used to wish I was a certain way.  When I was a teenager, I had one TV hero he was Michael Cole from Mod Squad.  I had a similar look, so I dressed like him and acted like him.  It was okay for a while until I realize I could be accepted for who I was.  We are suffering with an identity crisis from time to time abut then we get to a point where we learn that we are who we are and that is okay    

     The real joy is when we stop pretending and find people who love us the way we are in spite of our quirks.  That is when life gets sweet and wonderful.  That is why I love finding a spouse who knew all about my spouse and accepted me the way I was and chose me.  Nothing is sweeter and better than that.
