In's and Out's

We are all guilty of wanting to feel loved and important. While it is not wrong to want to feel this way, it is wrong to hurt others in the process of gaining what we want. Today I realize more than ever that sensitivity is key to relationships. I have chosen to be out of several online social networks because I find that dealing with insensitvity is way to difficult. Whether malicious or not, the pain is real. I let my emotions control my actions more than I should. I have struggled with this all my life. I am deeply passionate and this passion is hard to control. It is the bane of my existance. When I see those close to me hurt, I tend to lash out. I am working on this part of my self-control. Needless to say, still needs work. :) To those who know me well it is understood that this is one of my weaknesses. To the rest, they just see me as over-zealous and bitchy. Oh well, not perfect and neither are they. What I do see is that Steve and I have gone out of our way to include everyone, provide for everyone and yet we get dumped on in a heartbeat. These things hurt beyond belief. So I will be out of touch with most, but in touch with myself and continuing the never-ending process of giving God control and letting go.
