I think I'm starting to realize that people have innate weaknesses to different things. Example... Some people have a propensity to cheat in their relationships. I, on the other hand, have no desire to cheat. When I see other women, no matter if I find them attractive or not, I see friendship, not sex. Even the attraction isn't high enough to make me want to pursue them. If I happen to have something to talk about I'll approach them, but never really to small talk or "cake." Similarly, some people I know have had problems with gambling, but the issue doesn't exist with me (at least where real, non-virtual, money is concerned). My issues lie elsewhere. I have problems of motivation. Other people don't have problems concerning motivation. They're easily and readily inspired to do things. I, however, am not. A lot of times I have to pull, force, or entice myself into action. My point is that everyone needs to both recognize and try to surmount our own shortcomings.
We must overcome our weaknesses.
Although I have influenced Tramaine into exercise and eating healthy by my own behavior, she has influenced me in other ways. Through her, I realized that I didn't really have problem with going to church. I had a problem with the church I was going to. I possibly needed a younger, more lively church. So, I decided to find a church that I can regularly attend here in Carbondale.
Looks like my life may be coming full circle.
