This morning I watched the sunrise. It was nice, but I feel like I can't relax lately. Even accomplishing leisure time can be awful. I hope I'm not a bother to be around. After I watched the sunrise I went into the Great Hall (the cafeteria) and got breakfast and read some of the Ragamuffin Gospel. I like this book because it realigns my thinking

It's so sad that I feel like God doesn't want to pursue me because of my weight and extra pounds. I feel like I'm not good enough for anything in life because I'm not good enough in my skin. I know it sounds stupid but that is my thought pattern. When I read and when people say that God sees my beauty or something like that.. Pfft. I have a hard time believing it. No, I just don't beleive it. And I don't live it.

that's because of our culture and partially me I suppose. "for God judges not by outward appearance but by the heart." You can't make God love you less, he's not like us. We can't earn his love, we'll never be good enough.

its an evil society, the product of sinful man. it's sad that this is how women feel. i wish i could say that i felt differently, but i'm often on the same page as you.

i think i want the ragamuffin gospel to be the next book i read. i'm finally reading mere Christianity right now, and its amazing.
