So Sorry

[AJ29]

I am really not a bad person. If you knew me (RL) you would know I would do anything in the world for anyone who needs help. I get messed over all the time from helping people. I have let people live with us for free, I have given away and bought more stuff than I can even remember. I very very very seldom do anything for myself. That is why I am able to do for Taylor like I do.

I'm storing blessings in heaven.

I have no doubt that you are a good person Laurie! I recognise a very generous spirit - it seems you just want to bless people (especially your daughter). I have no doubt that you would do anything you could possibly do to help others. I just question how you use your resources. It is not my place to judge, but I do question, because then YOU can go back and think things through (if you see fit).

It doesn't hurt to treat yourself from time to time too. Don't pour all your earthly blessings onto Taylor. Train her the way you want her to grow up - I am sure you don't want her to grow up just "want, want, wanting" things, but to grow up with the soft heart of a servant of God. To buy everything you do for Taylor APPEARS to be too far towards the materialistic end of the scale to me. But like I said - thats me questioning you, not judging you. You can decide for yourself if you agree with me or not.

I am sure that you do things for other people - that wasn't what I was questioning.
I question whether you do it TOO MUCH for Taylor.

You don't need to talk it up - and you can share the exciting little shopping sprees you have. I don't mean for you not to be you (if that makes sense).

Just make sure for you (and for your daughter), that you have things in balance

It takes a big person to recognize her shortcomings, be willing to apologize and attempt change. Good going, Laurie
