Okay, i know this is my third post today. but i have something to say..well i was reading this book today, called "Faded Denim" about this girl who is a little bit over weight, and all the girls around her including her best friend are thin and beautiful. well this makes her feel really ugly and fat. so her best friend gives her tips on losing pounds. and then she is asked to go to a modeling school(during the summer) for two weeks with this friend, well by the time that happens she has only lost 3pounds and is not happy. so while she's at this school for 2 weeks she is given these tips by all these young models on losing pounds and inches fast. well this works for the girl, but it involves anorexia nervosa and bulimia and over exercising. and all those combined is not good for anyone's body. but at the end of the summer she helps out as a worship leader at a camp and all the campers are disabled, handicapped, or mentally challenged. and this girl realizes that although these young kids have challenges in their lives, they are still happy. and even though she has none of those challenges, she had taken her abilities and her functioning body for granted. and with the help of friends and God, she makes it through her battle, however, her battle was long from over. there was still a constant battle inside even if she was eating right and exercising properly. but knowing that she got through that with God, it makes me feel better about myself, and that if i ever feel like im not good enough, i can turn to God and pray, and i will know that he made me perfect how he wants me to be, and i will try not to change what he has given me. I love God, and i love you Cole...read this and know you have not failed at making me feel perfect. know that it takes more than one person to convince someone of something. :) I love you.
Thanks Janie! I love you always and I will never give up on you! Always and forever yours -cole-
