Lesson from "Dear Abby" ...do not think of yourself more...

Tweet

...highly than you ought to think... Taken from Romans 12. A 23 year old woman wrote to "Dear Abby" lamenting on the fact that even though she was confident and a real catch she couldn't find the right guy. She continues by saying that she was "beautiful inside and out, that she was raised in a great family with good morals and that she was kind to everyone. She has a killer personality, a great sense of humor, and inspiring attitude and that her glass was always half full. She says that she is sick of meeting creeps and that she wants someone in her league. She wants to know where were her male equivalents? "Dear Abby" didn't pull any punches. Here's what she said in response to the question of where were her male equivalents: I quote "they died of altitude sickness, trying to climb the pedestal you have placed yourself on. You have described your selling points, but what about the quality of your character? Are you nice to people who don't want anything from you? Are you giving? Sensitive? Can you compromise? Are you interested in other people? Perfection does not exist in anyone. And the sooner you become less preoccupied with your own perfection, the more likely it is that you'll meet your male 'equivalent.'" So what do you think folks? Was "Dear Abby" too hard on her? Did you want her to draw blood? What about the young lady, do you think if you dug deep enough that you would find some humility? Just thought I'd liven things up a bit. :-)
