And, Im back with some posts! Lets kick it off with something very real to all of us! . Ever feel like crap because someone posted a Facebook status about how awesome their life is? Well, see below how I feel about that: . I thought I would share an email exchange I had over the week-end: a lady I am working with expressed quite a bit of frustration because she had discovered an Instagram picture of a 30 some year old looking athlete with the perfect body, and the athlete claimed she ate whatever she wanted. . In a perfect world? Maybe! But realistically, there is a 99.9% chance she is, in fact, NOT eating whatever she wants. And what does whatever she wants even mean!? Twinkies and chips? An extra serving of brown rice? A whole avocado as opposed to a half? A liter of mountain dew every 2 hours? We have no idea--the reference is so vague! . So, lets be honest here: the people that consistently only post pictures and Facebook statuses that portray perfection, and are bragging a bit are merely great at Facebook statuses, and instagram pictures. They are not any more perfect than you are! Dont be fooled, or turn it on yourself and allow it to be a source of anxiety that drives you to feel like you need to keep up. You dont. Just focus on you. . One of the greatest needs we all have is to feel a sense of self worth. Deep down, we need to know that were important, and that our lives matter. We want to know that we have something great to offer.-- Victoria Osteen
