Actually, we all do. I'm coming to grips with this finally. I'm currently reading a few books I thought I would share:
On Desire -Why We Want what we Want
The Power of Full Engagment
Please Understand Me II
Idiot's Guide to Body Language
Um, I can't believe I bought any sort of "idiot's guide" book, I've always been completely discusted by their use of that in their title. How insulting, no one is an idiot! Alas I did. It's an interesting read indeed! Actually, all these books are!
I wish I had about 200 extra hours in a day, boy I could sure get everything done then! lol
I'm in a strange mood this evening...ah perhaps I always am.
The Please Understand Me II book is a book about personality types and temperments. I am so thankful of all that I've learned already and I've only skimmed sections. This book is not only helping me understand myself and my husband, but also all those other people that I have such an incedulous time relating to. Especially Guardians. They are so completely different from me...ah....I must say I was once a guardian, perhaps that's why I refuse to relate to them anymore.
It's soooo difficult. I express a thought and then re-evaluate it and determine that perhaps that's not my final thought on the subject. Such as just now, I no longer believe I refuse to relate to them. Guardians are that way by nature, my story of being a guardian is quite different from what they could tell me of their lives.
See I forced myself to be a guardian type all my youth and early life, and I was plagued with migraines and obessive negative thoughts and on and on....ah I can't explicate it for I feel a headache coming on recounting it. I had no clue that I was forcing this upon myself, I thought it was my way of being~but boy was I wrong!
I now live more true to my being thanks to a book that opened a whole new world to me. Sorry don't feel comfortable sharing that book just yet to the world wide web. I still experience migraines, they're actually more intense than they've ever been. But the one good thing about it is they are a lot less frequent than they use to be....whew
Okay, if you haven't noticed I'm in a rambling type mood this evening. Flow of consciousness.
You know what is so incredibly awesome about Etsy is that I am capable of being extroverted in a totally intoverted way! There's a lot to study about people's behaviours in regard to internet communication. Wow....the complexity and realms to explore~!
Well, I had a greater purpose of posting this blog this evening. First off, it has been a crazy long time since my last post. And now...my point of this blog post......
This Please Understand Me II book has helped me grasp that we are each incredibly unique and multifaceted and dear treasures. I may have talents that differ from yours, but that falls far from the point. The point, we all have wonderful talents that were given to us by God. And our purpose here in this life is to identify those amazing talents and exercise them to the greatest extent we can.
Watch out world. I have identified the gifts my precious Lord has bestowed upon me and I am determined to not keep them to myself. That's because I recoginze that these talents are not my own, they are not for me. They are for the world. I am here to serve a purpose greater than myself and I am humbly honored to live out such a path.
Oh there is one other thing you MUST know. If you have read this, it is because God deemed it your time to finally uncover this amazing secret:
You are one of His prescious pearls ready to be polished and ready to shine to the world! Recognize your talents and employ them! (~meaning take out your shining cloth and get to shining!)
As always, thank you for your precious time and reading.
