thicker skin still?

so yeah, if you read this then you probably know me. cause if you don't and you read it...you must be bored. But anywho...not the point.
My point was to say if you read this you know me. and if you know me you know that I am a pretty darn stinking sensitive person. And if you know me, you would also say that my skin sometimes needs to become a bit thicker as to not get hurt by every tom, dick and sally(I threw a girls name in to make it not so sexist).

Well here I stand at 31 in a conundrum(Sp?). You see...I am still just as sensitive as I ever was towards certain things. I still wear my heart on my sleeve and I still feel others pain. However...i have become pretty good at callousing up my skin in areas that were necessary. Due partly to the fact of my x and his family. They were the most sarcastic folk to each other. And also I have become more able to laugh at myself on a daily basis. This is, has been and always will be a struggle for me as I walk daily through this life. I feel I have a great sense of humor, even better than before, but I still find myself questioning why people can't just be nicer. and not only nicer, but loving towards one another. Show their real feelings instead of masking them with sarcasm. And then I remember something my dear friend Megan once said....
"Kristen, God gave you an extra amount of sensitivity for a reason."

Perhaps, the lessons I'm learning in life right now combined with this truth are revealing a new purpose.

More to come as it unfolds.
Until then, I will be working hard at school, posting pics as they come, and having a happy memorial day! I hope yours is great and restful!
