Positive Reinforcement

Ok so not that I spelled the title corectly, but it's close enought to figure out right?
So the book Wild at Heart came out a few years back, and it was the new sensation of how to understand guys. I don't think I know very many people who didn't read it, women included. It was incredibly insightful and clued many in on the inner workings of guys. Sadly, not as many people read the counterpart that came out a few years late, Captivating an insight into a womens way of thinking. Well let me sum it up for you quickly. We want to be thought of as captivating. (hense the title) But not only that, we want to be persued, and thought of as something special. We want to be apart of the adventure that guys so crave in their lives. Let me tell you nothing hurts worse than finding out that someone doesn't find you worth persuing, no matter who they are.
Why don't guys care as much about women as women care about guys? Come on we read your book. Sheesh.
Random rant of well however long it's been sence I last wrote.

Letting it all go.

So the last few days have been incredibly stressful. A lot of being there for people who were hurting badly, and it was begining to wear on me emotionally. But today I got to have on of those moments when God just lets you know how much he loves you.
I was sitting in the commons area of my friends apt, and randomly picked up a story that was sitting on the couch. Something by Max Lucado. And as I read the story I realized that often I tell myself that I shouldn't let what people say affect me, and that it's only God's opinion that matters. But what I'm really telling myself is that I don't need to worry about the insults. What is equally important is not worring about compliments either. I think often we strive way too hard to achieve other aprovel. It was just an amazing lift off of the pressure to perform. God is so good!
