Perfect People

I dont like people seeing me break. I do my best to hide when I am hurting emotionally.Sometimes, when people confront me about it, I try to make a joke out of it or I just close off until I can calmly and collectively state whats going on.  but when I dont feel good I let it be known but I try not to complain too much because I know their are people going through stuff much worse than me. Some of the stuff I hide is plain out of being prideful though. After all I am not perfect. I have my hurts like everyone else. I am glad that I started to blog again because it is good therapy for me to open up more. I love the fact that I can type how I feel when I cant get the words to say to anyone else. However,this is not a gossip column so I do my best not to mention anyone in it unless its positive.

I love how Natalie Grant puts it "Their is no such thing as perfect people" That whole song is beautiful and she sings about being yourself without pretending to be something that we aren't. She is right we shouldn't pretend to be okay when we are not. I know for me I will pretend to be okay when I am not A) Because I don't want to bring others down and B) I feel like a lot of the time people only really care about themselves. Honestly though if I hide my hurts then I am letting my tempature rise and the more I let things bottle up the more of a storm it will be later when I let it out. However, I still believe that some things are better left between an accountability partner, God and yourself.  

Anyhow I have some prayer requests I have some friends and family going through an Extremely rough time so if you could take a minute and pray for them it would be appreciated. Thanks!
