I felt so dull, always. No special talents, nothing exceptional or noteworthy about me. I had a friend who positively glistened with "different" in all kinds of beautiful and unique ways. I envied her so much... and come to find out later - when we are both adults - that she envied me that I was so "normal." That's all she ever wanted to be. The grass is always greener...<br /><br />I think we have both become a little more comfortable in our own skin. She is embracing her "different" and I am embracing my "normal" and we make it. Life isn't what we expect and sometimes it's so much better.hmv003https://www.blogger.com/profile/01552693051855280852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077151913672187133.post-73904659403696905832014-04-20T03:48:35.635-07:002014-04-20T03:48:35.635-07:00Hi Chrissy,

I don't think I have commented before...I have thought about it, but just haven't for some reason which is strange because I feel like I "catch up" with you nearly everyday! I am a Mum of two little ones in Australia and I just love the way you write. Sometimes your words are like my inner thoughts being splashed across my laptop...confronting but comforting at the same time. It's so nice to know that there is another Mum, albeit all the way in the U.S, that has a similar "way of being" as I do! <br />Keep writing even when it hurts as there are, I'm sure, many others out there like me who relate and find comfort in your words. God bless your beautiful family!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077151913672187133.post-14777388669047995852014-04-18T18:01:26.032-07:002014-04-18T18:01:26.032-07:00I was always different too and tried my hardest no...I was always different too and tried my hardest not to be. I have always been highly spiritual and hid it by conforming to what I thought I should be. It didn't work, I was teased and bullied because my difference showed through. Thanks so much for your honesty and vulnerability. It is an inspiration to me.Stella Brownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077151913672187133.post-84884719120090348992014-04-18T08:49:34.076-07:002014-04-18T08:49:34.076-07:00smitten with this.

I'm trying to learn to be comfortable in my shape, whatever it is... sometimes I'm happy with it, and sometimes I wish desperately that I could squish into a square hole, or a round one, or a triangular one... they seem to have it easy. Reading your blog helps me feel good about my "shape". And it's a good shape because it is mine. Thank you Chrissy!! Hope you and your family have a happy & blessed Easter.
