i'm a 20 year old emory college student currently taking the semester off. i'm a sociology major and a global health minor..haha sorry, i think i'd be going against my nature if i didnt include that information.
i was invited by tamara, and i know a couple other ladies on here as well. however, im thoroughly looking forward to getting to know you all in such a sweet and intimate way in this blessed community. <3
i guess in a way i'm learning more and more how God, Himself seeks us out personally and its a crazzyyy adventure honestly. its like i can mentally see myself running away from Him, or turning my back on Him, but for some reason that i still don't fully understand, He still wants me and ...wants to use this broken vessel of mine. i don't get it, and i struggle with it alot. i am finding, however that this struggle is leading and has lead to growth and a relationship that i would've never imagined a just short of a years ago. [sorries if alot of the stuff i say doesn't make sense im a "head-talker" too...haha...and if it isnt obvious already...i avoid the shift key and other grammatically correct..err..things.. :]] basically, thank God for grace..
im pretty conservative in most of my views of sex and sexuality. i probably get it mostly from my parents although we never had a "formal" talk, but their "tomi, once you lose it you'll never get it back" talks with me did quite the trick. personally im a little off and on about the issue, all within the context of marriage, of course. off in that its such a personal and intimate and barrier breaking process that im afraid to let someone else enter my life in such a personal way, regardless of the fact that the "someone" is my husband..and on, in that i hear its fun. haha..too much? either way, i'm single and in a place where in i want to learn to be joyful and purposeful in my single-hood...without an underlying theme of bitterness. i kinda struggle with this too...in that i tend to become attracted to guys and end up not knowing what to do with myself..haha im such a child..im sorry..
to be honest i can be a bit naive and guarded at times, which makes some topics a little uncomfortable for me, but im slowly but surely learning [ i like learning :D] that Godly community calls for some uncomfortable conversations...which leads to healing and prayer.
more big seestturrss?? SPLEE!
