GREETINGS EVERYONE,
I WOULD JUST LIKE TO MAKE A SMALL COMMENT. I HAVE A VERY DEAR FRIEND WHO HAS A SELF-ESTEEM PROBLEM. FROM EVERYTHING THAT SHE HAS TOLD ME, I THINK IT STEMS FROM HER FAMILY LIFE. ALL OF HER LIFE SHE WAS OVERWEIGHT AND HAD A DARKER SKIN TONE THAN HER BROTHERS AND SISTERS. THEY ALWAYS CALLED HER NAMES SUCH AS FAT AND BURNT BLACK. I HAVE TO FAULT THE PARENTS FOR THAT BECAUSE I KNOW MY MOTHER WOULD HAVE NEVER TOLERATED MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS TALKING BAD TO ONE ANOTHER. ANYWAY, SHE HAS NOW LOST 100 LBS. IN THE LAST 2 YEARS. SHE LOOKS GOOD AND NOW EVERYBODY WANTS TO GET AT HER. SHE FALLS FOR THE FIRST MAN THAT SAYS HELLO TO HER AND SHE IS CONSTANTLY GETTING HURT FROM THESE MEN. I THINK SHE IS LOOKING FOR THE LOVE SHE DID NOT RECEIVE AS A CHILD IN THE MEN THAT SHE DEALS WITH. I HAVE SUGGESTED THAT SHE SEEK COUNSELING BECAUSE IT IS A CONTINUOUS CYCLE AS WELL AS BUILD A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD.
