Where Are You?
The past few days I have thought quite a bit about people being comfortable in their own skin. Many of us say we are comfortable, we say we know who we are, we say we are confident but our actions speaks another language.
Our cultures wire us to believe we need to mirror someone. Magazines, television, online content all point to trends and popularity. All of these things are great and feed your inner self to feel more important but do they? The question ping pongs back to you in which we say… who are you?
How do you become more comfortable with your self? How do you become more comfortable around others? How can someone learn these attributes about them? The true root of the question must be triggered to selflessness. Meaning: If I can know and understand myself, then I will unlock the ability to help others.
Do you want to help another human being? ….Well the answer is “Yes.” In some way we yearn to embrace gratification in assisting another. We look back at what was accomplished and although the work was gritty and labor intensive, we grin because we know. We know that our actions were true and noble, we know we did the right thing. We must link these feelings back to the root of inspiration for us. This inspiration lies in “YOU”.
SUM: In order to know more about you, you must invest in people who will bring the inner you to the light. The true answer lies in your relationship with Jesus and your dedication to the Word of God. The pages in this book will answer many questions you may have. The remaining questions should be fielded by those who truly care about your future. Not your boyfriend or one of your mates/friends.
These questions can only be discussed with those who deliver concrete answers, those people are usually the ones you avoid most. Enjoy the journey.

Dear Anthony,
We have just noticed that someone has used your fathers name on Twitter and has made some really sinful comments. Look up Dr.Robb Thompson on Twitter,as this the name that the perpetrator is posting his comments under.
God bless you Anthony !!!!
