As usual, I love this. I agree with you that we were created in a perfect human state unfortunately some people go through a lot of hardships in life that change them. I believe that life is what you make it.

Yessss!! Finally someone else who gets it! I should have known it would be you :)

prelude2it-...One hardship the we do not need is try to change who we are for someone to love us, especially if it is for God to love them. God loves us just the way we are, agape love (true love)...loves unconditionally and for who someone naturally is. We have turned into a 'Phony Generation'....hiding behind masks so we can be accepted.
That mentality is not a Godly mentality...
It is self murder and spiritual hitman behavior when we judge someone for just being themselves.
The ten commandments in a nutshell is this:
Love God with all your heart and mind...
Love others as...
You love Yourselves....
Life is what you make of it.
Ultimately we become our own judges.
Peace and Love...

Boot Lady-..
Nice to see you!
I think we all get it now.
Never did ask you, why do you call yourself Boot Lady?
In Vegas, I did not even check out your shoes, that seems odd
to me, especially after your screen name.
Thanks for stopping by.
All Love..

The BootLady name story? Well, when I began blogging, I was in the business of selling industrial footwear (such a girly job!). My co-workers all called me The Boot Lady. I wish I could tell you it was more interesting than that! Now that I've quit my job, I guess I'm ExBootLady.

Hi sweetie!
Good to see you back!
Lovely post....you remind us who we are.
Embracing one's humanity...I'm working on it!
Thanks for this...
Love to you!
:)

You are an excellent writer and you are right. I believe that God loves us the way that we are and completely. He doesn't judge us, we are our own worst judges. Take Care.

I loved the last four lines the best. Your posts are so refreshing, so optimistic and full of hope. I wish everyone saw the beauty within themselves and accepted others as unique individuals. We hide behind facades because we are not accepted for who we are, we are afraid of being judged and concerned only about meeting expectations. Today, altruistic love is only seen in the love of a mother for her child. I wish there were more people like you who realised this. Excellent post.

Some may ask me, why have all of your dreams come true?

My answer, because I demanded it.

So many people miss this important fact in achievement. They expect their dreams to just fall into place. They are nothing more then actor's without direction. We only live our dreams when we demand it I agree 100 percent.

hi difficult...
i don't know if anyone is perfect... not to disagree with you. but that doesn't stop each one of us from searching in and, trying to improve, the best that we have to be better people to ourselves and those around us.
i think there is a good message here.
cheers!
:)

Stickman-..I would never ask you to agree, but I am
very particular in my own opinion. I rarely and commonly
change it.
Looking at it through a paradox:
We are all perfectly imperfect.
We all turned out just like we were supposed to.
All Love...

Yes, demanding life to fall in line absolutely
is necessary and a very effective method in
human nature.
We create our own destinies.
It is a God given mandate to dream.

Happiness comes from accepting one's self.
If we never come to terms with our own nature,
we will never understand another human being.
Once we understand ourselves, we can connect
to any human being we meet in life.
Thank you for the comments lately, they have
been a muse to me.
Peace&Love

prelude2it-..
Thank you for the kind words.
Yes, God does love us just the way we are.
Our next step toward inner peace is to
accept ourselves and our human nature, in that
and only in that, we will finally be comfortable in
our own skin.
We no longer have to wear masks around each other.
Masks that hides our innermost wishes and desires.
A mound of flesh that we have tried too long to kill.
Real holiness is not forced or even molded.
It is only refined and renewed.
Like the sun coming up every morning.
Just enough light and heat to dawn the day.

smilinirisheyes-..
It is good to see you.
Yes, just give yourself a big hug
and a pat on the back.
Welcome the era of 'Embracing Human Nature'

prelude2it-..I answered you twice. Imagine that.
I will just leave them both.
Peace...

BootLady-..Thanks for sharing that with me.
I need a boot shopping day.
I need some flat boots.
My favorite flat ones got permanently separated.
Peace...

nice post we are not to be judgemental of others this is right and yes God loves all of us equally as we are co creators of this world in which we live. The mask we all wear is only after all the outward appearnce for what ids within the ultimate persomality is what counts. I was qquite taken on your understanding of the ten commandments adjusted to us in our modern times of reality. thanks for your wiews.
