" Ms Dunn, I've read your words and its plain that you beleive the things you do with your whole heart.You sound like a real nice lady, and you dont need to explain yourself to nobody. But if I could give you one gift, I would tatoo these words on your heart "I'm better than I've been taught to believe I am" You say that there's no way you can measure up and that everybody knows it and can see it, well gess what? I can't. I think you sound like a real fine person but someone somewhere in your life, whether it was your folks, your pastor or a mate told you you wasn't good enough and thats just plain wrong, Sandy. I think that person was just trying to make you feel as bad about yourself as they felt about themselves. I'd like to whomp that person with a knotted plow-line. or better yet have a real sitdown talk with them and figur out why they was so angry. I don't know if you ever been told this Sandy, but it's ok to leave all that unworthyness behind. just put it out with the trash on tusday morning and know that God aint so cruel that he aint gonna love you if you love yourself like he does. I just think your afraid because you been told not to be proud- it aint being proud Sandy, its just called self-worth and you got it Sandy, you just dont know it cuz you aint been told. Now I dont pay no mind to all that "time and space mumbo-jumbo(no offense) but I know that when my time comes I'm gonna find you in heavenand sit right down next to you and bring you a cup of my best coffee cuz I lived a good life, and thats all that really matters. reckon. I hope by then you see yourself the way that I do. You just need somebody to tell you this so I will. Your fine Sandy, You shine just the way you are. "
