Running to Corners

There's really no deep point to this post except to laugh at the way God makes us...

We always say that hard or busy times bring out who we really are--our true personalities. This Christmas hasn't really been so busy or hard, but it's funny to see each of us here working out of our own true characters... So, Cindy is running around trying to keep from snapping at people, I'm running around trying not to cry at people's pain, and Lindsey is running around trying to attend as many social events as possible. Oy...

As we've been saying frequently over the past few days, it kinda reminds us all just why we need a Savior. :)

There are deeper questions, like "How far into your corner is actually healthy--how much of your true personality is good to work out of?" and "How can you work healthily in your corner with others in their corners?" and "When you see the unhealthiness in your corner, how can you affirm your own personality and yet work on giving up the things that are not so good--the things where you need to come into the center?"...

Anyway, these questions probably don't make so much sense right now, but we're learning the answers, I think, through living the situations rather than studying any kind of psychology textbook. God is a pretty intense teacher. :)
