::Thinking Before You Speak::

Trying to think of something to write about I(Laney) went through my mind trying to pin point distinct problems that i struggle with, the biggest thing that came through my head is NOT thinking before i speak and just plopping something out there. It's an EXTREMELY bad problem i have, for one reason i never ever had good comebacks  and good comeback's is something I've always wanted to have probably because i always thought I'd make people respect us more or think higher of us. Unfortunately it did quite the opposite instead of making people think higher of us it sometimes made no sense to them and came off mean even when we didn't mean too! It's not that we were/are  insecure we just always wanted to be that person that gets "awww's." Growing up and getting more mature(and with a lot of help from parents and some awesome friends) we've discovered that trying to be someone your not or saying something that isn't what your supposed to say is not a good thing! Our mom's have always told us we like to speak our mind which is a good thing until you need to shut up ha ha we probably need to shut up more often but anyway personally we think its very hard not speaking your mind  when you know something is different then how it comes across! This morning I(Laney) was talking with my mom and i said something like you know its a lot saying what you mean on face book, a blog, the radio or t.v. then it is looking someone straight in the face and saying the truth. I think we was getting saying the truth and then just blabbing way confused, asking God to help us has proved to be a great help its giving us the needed confidence to say something that makes sense and is true before stinking our foot in our mouth! So as girl's who struggle with speaking out of turn please don't give up if you do the same thing it's a bad habit but can be overcome.. Pray pray pray, ask God for wisdom on what to say and when to say it! We're no way near to perfect but we want become closer each and everyday!!
