My Strongest Weakness

Recently I have been disappointed by some events that have taken place in my life. I am the kind of person who will do whatever I can for my family and friends. If there is something they need or want...no matter how small, large or unimportant it is to me...I will find a way to support their quest. Many times I will cancel any plans that I currently have just to help out. It's just the way I am.

Generally I don't expect anything in return but it is difficult for me when the jester is not returned. I know that most people are not constructed like me. I really don't know of anyone else who would do some of the things that I would do...Does it make me stupid? Sometimes I think so because I can get really emotional when I am not supported when I ask for it.

I spoke to my friend/sister in law about this (We have been friends since we were weee lasses and now I am lucky enough to have her for a sister. God IS good); She told me, "It is your strongest quality, Bec". That statement said volumes to me. Yes, I do realize she didn't say it was my "best" quality but still. This is a unique trait to me. My family knows that at any given moment I will drop whatever it is and help them if they needed it. I would too. It is tough sometimes but I know that I cannot expect others to be who I am. God made us all different for a reason.

Ok. Enough on this one. It has been eating at me for awhile and wanted to get it in writing. There will be more posts...Lucky you...
