I can identify. Fitting in has been a lifelong struggle for me.

My biggest problem in dealing with this is that in trying to be accepted by others, I never really had my own identity. I was who I thought others would like me to be, and it changed based on who I was around.

My whole adult life has been an identity crisis. But I am working toward figuring out who the real me is, and hopefully I can be that person whether you like me, love me, or hate me.

First off I missed you. Sorry for being away for a while there.

And lets see I definetly do have a tendency to please others. But I tend to limit that to the people I care about.

Personally I do not wear makeup or do much wiyth my hair on a day to day basis because I want to be me, I want people to accept me as me even if its not te most beautiful version.

Think we all have to take some moments to watch this natural tendency to please others. I believe it is something that all people must evaluate occasionally. I love it when I can get back to just being me!

I am reminded of that moment when Martha is busy in the kitchen, and Mary is simply sitting at Jesus' feet listening to every word. Mary chose to be "real" at that moment and not let expectations prevent her from experience. I want to be like that!
