I responded to a message from one of my adopted little sisters and SIP thought this was something others needed to read too:
It's hard being a grown up and live life with boundaries and character. It's so easy to do what everyone else does because even though you know in your heart it isn't right...it feels good. Live life the way you would want your daughter to live her life. You would want the best for her right? RIGHT. Want the best for you too. Get your ducks right and the right one for you will show up. I never did the things the "cool" girls did and yet...I was still able to find happiness with a husband who cherishes me and whom I cherish and it's GOOD. VERY.GOOD. Don't let what happens in the lives of others make you do things differently. You're not a follower...you're a leader.
