You Can Become So Manipulated And Controlled By What You Think Other People Expect You To Do That You Literally Live Under The Tyranny Of Other People's Expectations. And What I Call The Shoulds And The Oughts.

I Believe That A Lot Of People In Our Society Today, People Who Have Been Hurt And Even People Who Haven't Been Hurt, Get Their Worth And Value From What They Do, What They Look Like, What They Own, What Kind Of Job They Have, What Kind Of House They Live In, How Much Money They Have, What Social Circles They're In, What Level Of Education They Have, Especially Even How Other People Respond To Them.

Jesus Said When The Woman Poured The Alabaster Bottle Of Perfume On Him That Was Worth Almost A Year's Wages, And Judas, Who Was Very Money-minded, Said You Shouldn't Have Done That, Because You're Wasting That, We Could Have Sold That And Given It To The Poor. And Jesus Himself Said, You Will Always Have The Poor With You, But She Has Done This As An Honor To Me, And She Will Be Honored For It All Of Her Days. And So You Never Run Out Of Poor People. You Could Give Everything You Had, I Could Give Everything I Had, And The World Would Still Be Full Of Poor People.

When I Read The Bible, I See That We Should Have Victory In Our Life And Be Overcomers, And I Can't Even Control My Temper. I'm Impatient. I'm Hard To Get Along With. I'm Selfish And Self-centered, And I Don't Seem To Have Any Control Over It.
