Am I living my life in a garish way without following the kindly light?
There come moments in my life where people ask me about myself. More often than not I run through the route presentation of my traditional introduction.... My name in Kimberly Barnes, I am from Rigby Idaho and I have 9 sisters. Yes that means no brothers. I'm studying to become a FCS teacher and I love to travel.
Then there are the RARE moments when certain individuals really ask WHO ARE YOU?
they may phrase the question as
HOW DO YOU SEE YOURSELF RIGHT NOW?
HOW WOULD HEAVENLY FATHER SEE YOU?
DO YOU FEEL TREASURED?
WHAT IS ONE WORD THAT WOULD DESCRIBE YOU?
HOW DO YOU LIVE THE WAY YOU DO?
WHY IS IT THAT EVERYTHING YOU DO HAS MEANING?
what makes Kim, KIM?
these are very hard questions for me to answer, especially when I'm put on the spot. I am not one to think of myself often. In fact, I hardly do. Friends would say that I put others needs before my own. This is true.
lately I have really lost sight of who I am.
My dear roommate had me read a story she wrote in high school. In the story is talks about how a girl wants to know for herself who she is AND her quest in finding the answers... I am that girl!
Ill post the link here
my quest is not over... it will never be over..... there is always one more step that has helped define me! Its a life long journey of the heart...
Its not how you fall, its how you get back up.

I've been reading a book about raising confidence in your children. Through reading this I struggle with applying some of the objectives towards myself. I feel it's important to think positive about ourself. If we do so we will be more effective in helping our children because of the examples we set. We also talked about the conference talk about how incredible women are and can be. "women are incredible because of how they face trials and adversity" Im not sure if that is word for word but its uplifting to know that because of what we sacrifice and endure to over come...outside people see us as incredible, because of the effort we put forth.
