Worth.
Today I really struggled with be alone as an extrovert. I confess, I'm a people person! But just because people don't want to hang out doesn't mean that I don't have friends or that everyone hates me as I like to convince myself. Today just happened to be one of those days when I was not busy and wanted to see everyone while many were busy with prior engagements. I asked God to explain my struggle this afternoon. I think He's just really pointing out this flaw that I've been trying to deny. This whole past year I have really been struggling with seeing people that I want to be like or am inspired by, and confiding in them. While this may not seem harmful at first the underlying problem is that I am trying to be like other people instead of trying to be like Christ. I am putting my trust in others and trying to get my worth from them when I should be finding my identity and worth in Christ and Christ alone. Because of this struggle I take certain things that relate to being alone or being ignored personally. In the same way I try to treat each person with worth no matter how I'm feeling. Anyway, I feel really pathetic for blogging about this because I'm usually not one to complain about my feelings on social media but you know, it's a hair flip. I know I have friends and best friends at that, but this is just something I struggle with. Everyone has their struggles.

St. Valentine's
I had a fabulous Valentine's Day---- even though I'm one of those single ladies. I started the day off wearing my favorite color, pink of course, with twisted hair and taped some cute valentines to my residents' doors. I put out some adorable vanilla cupcakes for them as well and went downstairs to put valentines in the boxes of my fellow RA's. One of my sisters in Christ was downstairs and she shared the word about God's true love for us--- for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son. She's so encouraging. I found a few valentines and a rose in my box. One of my brothers in Christ gave a rose to each woman on staff with a bible verse sticking out of the petals. It was super sweet. I then went to class and then work. It was a fab valentine's day indeed because Sprint sent me my pink iPhone 5c and I picked it up after.
Afterwards I received a box of fabulous cupcakes from one of my extremely talented friends! They were so lovely.
