It is ok to be shy and vulnerable, we may be what we need to be, without fear. Handsome, pretty, or otherwise. That is all part of life's journey. I wish you the best of luck and love. | |||

Pride and Shame are related, and, in many ways, Pride comes from Shame. On the surface, Pride has a blinding effect on the self; that is it is difficult to see ourselves as prideful and arrogant, but easy for others to see it in us. Contrarily, Shame has an isolating effect on us and blinds us from others. When we are repressing shame we feel like everyone else can see it within us, so we shrink back and hide our-selves away from others in hopes that they cant see it. Ezekiel 16:49-54 offers a pretty good allegory on the relationship between Pride and Shame and is crucial to understanding how the syzygy of these two manifestations of ego can be transformed into humility and strength as we surrender to the cross. Anyways, back to Baking my 7 year olds birthday cake, a loaf of buttermilk bread, and building a popsicle stick house. Who's to say nothing good can come from this whole disaster? | |||
