I just don't even look at them any more, they make me want things and I am content without all that stuff, but it makes you feel sorta like an ordinary woman trying to be on the fashion runway of homes !Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08505042214124811641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16161087.post-26673494869299777202007-11-29T13:14:00.000-08:002007-11-29T13:14:00.000-08:00Another Amen to that post.

I haven't heard a sermon this good in ages...wonderful!<BR/><BR/>I struggle in my blogging to be real. A friend emailed me this morning of their struggle to accept all of the "in your face" home decor that many of the blogs display. How real are we really being on blogs anyway. How real should we be? I've often struggled with this question. Someone asked me was I going to participate in the Christmas Blog Tour of Homes...a post where you post your Christmas decor and then link up at one centraly located blog and then go "ooh and ahh" over each one. I participated one time during their very first summer one but said never again. I felt inferior, to all. Some of them as young as my own young adult children with "stuff" I could never dream of having. What really goes on behind the pretty pictures though??<BR/><BR/>I love your blog...it helps me to think!! =)Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10163460365796110352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16161087.post-9978362776989195322007-11-29T09:05:00.000-08:002007-11-29T09:05:00.000-08:00Another wonderful post.Another wonderful post.Angelenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04002727192262980990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16161087.post-8586333255846271832007-11-29T08:16:00.000-08:002007-11-29T08:16:00.000-08:00Thanks CJ, I often say a prayer, asking God, do yo...Thanks CJ, I often say a prayer, asking God, do you really want me to say that ? Then I take a deep breath and hit the publish tab. Never sure what sort of response the post will get. "Direct" might be my real middle name : )Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08505042214124811641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16161087.post-83742501281508533312007-11-29T08:07:00.000-08:002007-11-29T08:07:00.000-08:00Amen to that...not so easy for some folks!

We faced this personally when we were newly married and M was leading a small worship group. We tried to live "up to" the rigid standards of our mostly elderly members...couldn't in the end of the day. It's taken many years and lessons to have both in and out match and I still feel sometimes I'm not who I am...sigh! I enjoy your posts so much because they're so direct, so honest!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02594666378619690489noreply@blogger.com
