Three Traits I Need to Work On
May 24, 2013 § 3 Comments
Day 24 of Blog Every Day in May is here and it’s a looking-honestly-in-your-heart one. Your top 3 worst traits.
The above picture has nothing to do with this post whatsoever. I just can’t wait till it is warm enough to run around barefoot this summer!
With this post I enlisted James for a little help and a little insight into what he thought were three things that I need to work on. I asked him what my top three worst traits are and he got a smile on his face and easily told me two. He couldn’t think of a third (How sweet is that! Love is blind!), but later when I asked him again, he gave me a third one (and that one brought a smile to my face). James was so honest and sweet when I asked him about my flaws. I love that we can be completely honest with each other without upsetting one another.

Without further adieu, here are things that I need to work on:
1. I can become impatient with people. I know, terrible right? I move at a very fast pace in life and when I perceive that others are slowing me down, I can get irritated. But I’m learning that there are times when I need to slow down, take a breath, and enjoy being still.
2. I can have trouble asking for help. I sometimes like to do things on my own without the help of others. I tend to think that I can do things more efficiently on my own. And then when someone tries to help, my impatience can kick in. Oh my, I do need to work on this, huh?
3. Lastly, James said I love him too much. How sweet of him. I don’t know if I should fix this one! I should get better at doing this flaw more often. And I bet if I get better at this flaw of loving him too much, I’ll be more patient with him and be willing to ask for help with things.
This is so cute. 🙂
🙂 he is darling. and I understand loving someone “too much”. one of the hardest things I have struggled with is that I am always really extreme. i don’t know how to love a little, if that makes sense. and i’m always afraid that because i love so much that i have no power in the relationship. luckily, my husband doesn’t want to have power over me 🙂 great blog! it’s already warm here, but it won’t stop raining!
