Greatest Fear

Sorry. No post about Ohana for you. But did you really think you'd get it? Do I ever follow through on my blog promises? No, not really... Anyway....

A few weeks ago my best friend in the whole world (yes, that would be my handsome missionary) asked me what my greatest fear was. It took me a while to come up with an answer, but I really think my greatest fear is not being a good wife for my future husband and a good mother for my future children. Sure I may be terrified of spiders, clowns, doctors, needles, and pills. I may shiver at the thought of rejection or confinement, but above all else I am so scared that I will let down those that need me and those I love.

What if I'm not supportive enough. Or selfless enough. Or even feminine enough (for some reason I struggle at times with this one... *blush*) Well... I guess only prayer can help me now.

    Whitney....I wish I could accurately express how much I relate to this post...a whole LOT, in case you were wondering.

    Not feminine? Hardly, Whitney. You are the best of both worlds!
    At least you can pinpoint your fear. I can't even guess at mine...

A lot on my mind...

"God fashioned me For feeding; And set me in A hungry land." -Carol Lynn Pearson In me, God has made someone who wants to help, someone who wants to serve. When I was younger, I never wanted to be a mom and I only wanted to marry a man that would follow me where my career took me as I tried to prove myself in a man's world. Well, since then my view has changed. All I want to do with my life is work for those that I love. That sounds so perfect. Now at the moment I have no husband and no children, but I love my friends so much and I strive to be the help they need. As Pearson stated, "God fashioned me for feeding and set me in a hungry land." These friends that I love so much are hungry. They come to me with all of their problems. It seems that an exceptional amount of people find me to be an excellent confidant. My friends tell me things they've only ever told their girl/boyfriends, bishops, or parents. Or even things they've never told anyone...

Things I've thought about blogging, but never really got around to making them into full blog posts: 1.

Don't insult her choice to wait and date, or wait, or whatever the details are. She already feels alone and what she wants is a friend. If you're her friend then you have a much better chance at winning her over. Insulting her missionary is no good either. This is someone she cares about enough to consider waiting two years for. He is her love. If you insult someone she cares about deeply, she won't like you. 2. Stop playing these stupid games! Games and drama just hurt people and cause unnecessary stress. If you like someone, then act like it. Don't try to distance yourself. Don't tell everyone except that person. Don't be ridiculous. Just act true to your f...
