Today was kind of a full day and good things happened but oddly I feel pretty empty in regards to the day. We had our first staff devos and Ashley did a wonderful job. Then we had our official tour of RH and bought up ALL kinds of their goods:) That was exciting. Then later we went to the RH Freedom Foundation and had measurements for skirts and some in the group got their hair done. I had a nice chat with the director there. Next we had community classes and I just ended up answering questions about myself instead of teaching English to this boy. Nice conversation though. We walked over to RH next and had a testimony from Alyssa and then played games outside. I mostly ended up playing in the mud puddles with three young girls probably around 7 or 8 years old on the swings. It was wonderful and a lot of good laughs and giggles. But here is what I think has been bothering me all day. Not one girl has singled me out. Well maybe for 5 minutes but then they're off to the next big thing. I think it's because I'm selfish, I feel this way. I'm selfish because I want them to love me and approach me and such. God please change my attitude. I guess I just wanted to feel special too. But I also know the enemy is feeding me lies about my self worth and they're not true.
