I think we all have struggles ...I love you Aim!!! <br />I think we all have struggles because we seek perfection. <br /><br />The problem is we let our struggles stand in the way of conquering our struggles. <br /><br />What I mean by this is that I always feel that I fall short. There is not one single thing I can do absolutly perfectly. Nothing that I am the very best at. So I often let this get me down and then when I try to do something at my very best, I have this little person in my head that tells me that I will fall short- It won't be good enough. And then I slow down or stop what I am trying to accomplish all together.<br /><br />The mind is so powerful. It can stop you completely, but it can also tell you - You are AMAZING!!<br /><br />The great thing is- We get to decide each day how we want to see ourselves. <br /><br />I am learning that it doesn't matter if I am the best. I am going to just DO MY BEST. Which in turn will make me MY BEST. <br /><br />Forget about what anyone thinks! Anyone who REALLY knows YOU, will LOVE YOU! <br /><br />You are an inspiration and I hope you have the greatest birthday EVER!!!Gear Ganghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09562829161664462777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5135620350293548539.post-77191774994770770892010-06-28T19:47:15.749-06:002010-06-28T19:47:15.749-06:00Your blog is amazing.

I too think WAY too much about what people think, do they look at my fat rolls, can they tell my bum is jiggling when I am doing zumba, do they think I'm a snob, or mean, or selfish? Who knows why, but it happens. I talked to a really good friend that I hadn't talked to in 10 years for almost 2 hours the other day. They said to me, "Kristin, you are the most amazing, kind, genuine person I have ever known". And what did I say, "yeah, you haven't seen me for 10 years, you wouldn't think that anymore!" Ummmmm what?! What is wrong with me? It's sad that I can't even see myself as that person anymore. Apparently I need to get back to my old self, the kind one, that had way more self esteem, the one that people wanted to be around, the one where people thought of me as a good person. How? Who knows, but I am going to find those hills SOMEWHERE and climb them as fast as I can. I NEED to!Kristin and Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02263608485794902969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5135620350293548539.post-79521168289759081502010-06-28T18:37:36.271-06:002010-06-28T18:37:36.271-06:00Amy, first off I just want to say that I love you....Amy, first off I just want to say that I love you. LOVE YOU!!! Second, I am right there with you on this entire post. I am letting my weight control me too. It's the one thing that totally controls me. I didn't go swimming with my child today because I didn't want to get in a swimsuit. I have ideas galore of things I want to do and create but I think no one would give me the time of day because of my appearance. It's so dumb and so crazy. I miss the person that I used to be, not just because I was thinner but because I was healthier, physically and mentally. I never used to beat myself down and now it's a daily occurance for me. The sky used to be the limit for myself and now its sometimes my front door. I know what I need to do but I just have a hard time giving myself the time of day. I would love to get to the bottom of this issue too. I just need to figure out what my hills are. What is holding me back from conquoring that mountain??<br />P.S Shalece is the best.

Why is it that I ...Oh Dearie dear, I so admire you. Why is it that I cry at EVERYTHING you write? Your blog has forced me to admit things about myself that I don't very well like my dear! Not ready to put my many weaknesses out there just yet. But maybe one of these days I will. Golly gee I want to be like you. :o) Ironically I was watching Thumbalina with my Hannah this morning and there was a line that I really have thought about today. Thumbalina says to her mom, "I wish I were bigger like you" to which her mother said, "oh no my dear, never wish you were anyone but yourself." Hmmm....good advice that I'm trying hard to apply. Love love love you! Now, get your bootie down here for a visit. I'm sick of crying alone. I need to cry with you! :o)Lombardo Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09894610972616165125noreply@blogger.com
