It's still so new that I can't anticipate how it will all turn out. <BR/><BR/>So yes, I understand the need for validation . . .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4211674678201251588.post-22820943457699656022008-05-07T18:55:00.000-07:002008-05-07T18:55:00.000-07:00Seriously...

I thought maybe it was because we 1st born think we know what is best for the rest of the kids. :)<BR/><BR/>I was going to agree with Cable Girl so I looked up the definition of vanity. This is what I found:<BR/><BR/>Excessive pride in one's appearance or accomplishments; conceit; Implying a state of spiritual emptiness, vanity inspired; Lack of usefulness, worth, or effect; worthlessness<BR/><BR/>So I can see how the need for validation may fit in here, but I also agree with Cable Girl that the fact that you look to others shows that you may not be vain. I believe that strength is found in recognizing our weaknesses and taking them head on. I am not sure that seeking a little validation is an issue but it sounds like if it is you are taking it head on!GetSmartGalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07193462839455819498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4211674678201251588.post-70704554120815073792008-05-06T17:12:00.001-07:002008-05-06T17:12:00.001-07:00I have to say I'm feeling a bit out of the loop be...I have to say I'm feeling a bit out of the loop because I seem to be the only gal who posted out of order. Hmph. Must be a middle child's knee jerk reaction to seperate herself from the pack or something like that.<BR/><BR/>Anyways...<BR/><BR/>Thanks for playing. I LOVE that vanity isn't a huge issue for you being that you live in LA.

I would tend to see it the other way. The vain woman is so self possessed that she doesn't need validation... she seeks it for pleasure, but doesn't need it.<BR/><BR/>I'm loving these "sin" posts. :)<BR/><BR/>@Kori - ah, be honest, the reason you don't want to participate is because you know you'd write a dissertation on wrath. *duck* ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4211674678201251588.post-49075389915037118022008-05-06T16:22:00.000-07:002008-05-06T16:22:00.000-07:00Jeff - close, but not what I recall.
