(no subject)
Everybody seems to look at everyone else and say "Gosh, they're so good at everything, and I'm so not..."
They're really just noticing what the other person is better at. What they don't seen to realize is that there's people looking at them and saying the exact same thing. We can't all be the BEST at something, but what we lack in certain things we make up for in other areas.
I've been noticing a lot of people with the "I'm worthless compared to this person" thing going on.
I talked to my friend Jessie yesterday, and the day before. I hadn't talked to her in a while, I knew her from AWANA WAAAAY back when I was in Guards, like... what, fifth grade?
Yeah.
She loves cooking... the only things that don't make her sick when she eats them are veggies, and very few meats and fruits. She has an intollerance for substances in pretty much everything else. She is homeschooled. She doesn't know her times tables yet, but she's been enjoying her reading. She reads Piers Anthony, and wishes to get her GED. Even though we havn't spoken in a very long time, she still has my birthday present she was going to give me from the birthday I invited her to that she never got to attend. That's when we lost contact, she lost my number... I just recently got her's back from the people down the street who still go to church with her.
She's not very smart, but she more than makes up for it with talent in certain areas... and a memory like a computer. She's the sweetest person I know.
She doesn't complain about how she doesn't know her times tables, or how she'll have trouble with certain areas. She just has fun with what she can do and doesn't worry about anything else.
I wish I could be like that.
Ironic, this entry, isn't it?
