it was brought to my attention when i was talking to my good friend (cousin) Jeny Monson the other day, that us Warner kids can get VERY defensive. She wanted to tell me this because when we were on our 'girls trip,' me, ashley, jillian, and danielle seemed to get a little sensative when it came to what others said about us. The thing about us girls is that we would hear something, comment defensively back, really think about what the person said, and THEN we would realize it might be true, forgive (if needed), and move on. We leave each situation like that learning more about ourselves in a positive way.
Jeny on the other hand is such a non-sensative person when it comes to what others think about her and her family. She is sensative when it comes to things that are important to her, but she is a very strong person!
So my point is, well I dont know if I have a point. Im not sure why us kids are like this, but its not just the girls, its all 7 of us. Speaking for myself, i have realized that I need to take in what people might say to me without getting so defensive. Im not perfect and when people to say things that I feel are negative, I need to know that they love me and they are not saying it to put me down or make me feel bad.
Hope we can all work on this.
Thanks Jeny!
