I think this is like the anti-coming of age moment. We spend high school and college becoming really big fish in small ponds. And then one day we realize we are such jokes. (I wish you could see me laughing at myself) <BR/>When I was like, four years old I was convinced that I could put my hair in a pony tail really well. And then when I was like six, I remember being frustrated because I couldn't make it work right. I asked my mom why I couldn't do it anymore, and she told me I had never been able to, only now I could tell the difference. <BR/>I swear, I find myself back at that moment almost every day. I really thought I could sing. . . until I listened to myself. I used to think I could be beautiful. . . until I realized all my efforts got me just far enough to dissapear in a crowd. I really thought I was a nice girl. . . until I thought about the things I said to people. Every stinking day I realize that where I thought I stood out, I was just this mediocre middle child hamming it up for the world's amusement. <BR/> But God loves me and my husband thinks I'm great, and my mom says I'm funny, so I'm deeply content and even thankful to be a hilarious screw up.

I battle these thoughts...Audra, I am here for you! I battle these thoughts daily. All I do it stay home and change poopy diapers. I am not good at rest of the day (cleaning, cooking, being organized). But I've learned over the past couple months, and am still learning our value, worth and excellence doesn't come from what we can DO, but from WHO created us. I look at you and think you are AMAZING- and I don't say that lightly! You have a voice that quiets a crowd- I wish I had that. You beauty lights up any room that you are in, your loving and friendly heart is beigger than most I know, and you love for you husband and God is something I strive for more and more. You are GREAT! you are great at what matters in this world! Don't sell yourself short! All the things you doubt about yourself are from Satan and NOWHERE else!<BR/>I strongly believe if you are doing what God wants you to do, and you are seeking him daily you are excelling just as you should! Don't get down and if you do, call me! We should hang out sometime soon, I miss you guys!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17238112.post-1146542771015140392006-05-01T21:06:00.000-07:002006-05-01T21:06:00.000-07:00Audra, one thing I think you excel at is singing. ...Audra, one thing I think you excel at is singing. Honestly your gift that you share with us at the Quarry is simply amazing. <BR/>As far as the whole producer thing, we all do things that we are not perfect in, or excel in to make ends meet. I think that TV is a tough business and humans are never ever going to be on their game all the time. <BR/>Now, saying that, I have been in a time of reflection myself. Sooner or later I am going to have to snap myself out of it and get down to work. I say this only to let you know your not alone in this.<BR/>The final thing is that in our small group we are going through a book called "Death by Suburb". One of the points of the book (and I am only a few chapters in) is that we hate being medocre and hate it about ourselves. Maybe that is who we are in that area of our life, and we have to accept it. <BR/>That being said...I am sure you will be able to kick yourself back into gear and make it happen. <BR/>I too feel I am good at a lot of things, just not excellent at anything. (hence some postings on good or Great...still trying to find out what I am great at).Chris Goodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05560814510791169266noreply@blogger.com
