		<description><![CDATA[Wow, very astute observation. To be honest, people are as much pissed off by me as I am by them. I will annoy teachers, I will annoy atheists, I will annoy people with my coping skills... It&#039;s life.

I am an extreme pessimist, if anyone out there is thinking otherwise then either they&#039;re blinder then a bat, or I&#039;m better at lying then I thought. lives... whether they&#039;re hard or not, you can&#039;t really feel someone else&#039;s difficulty because of the different temperaments and circumstances. something that&#039;s not a big deal for me might be a giant thing for someone else.. and vice-versa. Something that I&#039;ve been learning is to not compare myself with others or even myself. My life is my burden to bear. And God knows that I can handle it, even when I feel like I&#039;m drowning. And somewhere deep down I know that everything that has happened, and everything that is happening, and everything that will happen, is for a divine purpose.

Love is... one thing that I&#039;m having difficulty wrapping my mind around right now. I need to remember that everyone loves me no matter what I look like. And especially God loves me despite what I look like.

I think I&#039;m going to rant about grocery stores next.....]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So Grace, what do you think people then think about you? What&#039;s your place in another person&#039;s rant? Do they have cause to say that you don&#039;t know what to do in tough situations. That when you&#039;re given problems you panic instead of calmly solving them? Might your teacher see you as not listening to her?
Quite possibly people may see you as that annoying overzealous Christian know-it-all that can&#039;t keep her mouth shut.
Are you being perceived as  being an extreme pessimist? Do other people have cause to say that your life isn&#039;t quite as difficult as it could be? Is life so unjust that you don&#039;t deserve everything that comes? Is God really dishing out more then you can handle?
Are you being a bit too over conscious about your own body. Are you not already a beautiful creation of God&#039;s that is loved regardless of summer clothes by the Lord and Savior and the people closest to you?
You can only change yourself hopefully it will only be for the better. While it is important to vent, you need to balance things out to see that part of the reason life seems crappy is because you (or me or anybody at all) makes life for the whole world crappy. Maybe it&#039;s just my way of thinking, but I don&#039;t see things as beautiful or ugly (though things may be more or less aesthetically pleasing) but they appear according to your vision which is dependent on you. I used to see something like graffiti as ugly, but in its own way it can appear as wonderful as the Mona Lisa. When we die God is not going to see your or my belly fat but he&#039;ll see Jesus. So with that assurance we know that we have a happy ending but until then are we going to make things miserable for ourselves and others? Or can we use every muscle within us to praise God for each and every gift, challenge, and opportunity that he sends to build us up?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yay! Girls need to vent--- good job doing it on a blog and not (from what I know) in real life. :)

People with ridiculous crushes ANNOY ME SO MUCH! Their pathetic little parasitic relationships are soooo obnoxious cause you can see that they won&#039;t end well at all. Lack of self control is also terribly annoying.....  I think that&#039;s what ADD basically is: lack of self control, due PARTIALLY, minutely to the bodily condition.

&quot;some belly fat to house under those summer clothes. where are your eyes?!?!?!?! It’s completely obvious to me!!! have not you noticed the overhand whenever I try to put on shorts?&quot; Grace, never ever EVER EVER EVER tell guys to look at you. That only ever ends badly. If they don&#039;t notice you, that&#039;s their problem. You DO NOT want guys noticing things like that about you. Or you don&#039;t want LOTS of guys noticing it.]]></description>
