Cool Like That

Reason number 4, 573 (yes, I did just make that number up) why I love my boyfriend--because when I text him telling him that I'm googling window seats, he doesn't tell me I'm crazy or wonder why.

He just sends me a link to some flowers that would look wonderful planted outside to be gazed upon from said window seat.

Cause he's cool like that.

Sincerely,
 

Values

Tonight in class, my professor asked us what we considered to be our values. She said what we value dictates who we are. So we composed a list with all the cliche answers like honesty, integrity, kindness, caring, communication. You know, values. But it got me thinking. How many of those values that I can list so easily actually dictate who I am? How many of them are actually values? I say I value gentleness, but am I gentle? Would people know what I "value" by a random meeting with me? I pray that they would.

This, all typed out, seems rather dramatic. I don't mean it to be. I'm just thinking it through. Care to share your thoughts?


Sincerely,
