Have you ever made something? Like literally created something? Artwork, a design, strategic method, anything.

 I created this blog: QiBee & Tees. The name, the concept, the idea — I thought about it, prayed on it, and created it. It’s my baby. It may not be perfect and there can always be improvements made, but I created it and for that alone, I think it’s pretty dope.

I wondered what would it look like for my blog to begin to critic itself. What would it say?

 “I don’t have as many subscribers as other blogs, so I am less than.”

 “I sometimes contain typos, so I am not perfect.”

 “I am not fashion forward, so I am not enough.”

 “What was my creator thinking when she called me dope. I am absolutely not amazing.”

 For awhile, I have thoughts similar to these. I’ve been thinking over the things that I don’t like about myself or the things that are beginning to be annoying. 

I am a crier. I cry about everything. Happy or sad, scared or brave, I will cry.  Can I experience emotion without tears? Why am I this way? 

I can often be an idealistic thinker. I am a sucker for Romantic Comedies, so you get the picture. Anything that can get my head in the clouds, I’m in. So you can imagine how adulting has shifted my dreamy feelings. They are slowly becoming non-existent and the thought of me defaulting to idealism becomes more concerning. Why am I this way?

 I love sleeping. Like love it. I used to include it any questionnaire that asked for a list of hobbies. My siblings often ask me why I don’t remember things from childhood memories…it’s because I was somewhere sleep. On the way to school, on the way to church, at the birthday parties — sleep. Why am I this way?

 I prefer to be introverted to use that as an excuse.

 I am imperfect. What was my Creator thinking when He said I am fearfully and wonderfully made? Why would He elevate me to such grandeur?

I can relate to God in some sense. The way I view my blog is a small taste of how He views me. I’m His baby. My name, my makeup, my quirks and interests — He thought of intentionally and fashioned me this way.

 Like I mentioned with the example of my blog, of course there can be improvements. I definitely have a lot of areas to improve on. But to consistently and blatantly insult myself is to insult my Creator. I am encouraged to thank Him for the way that He made me. And He made me dope! 🙂

  1. Yes, you are dope. But more importantly, you ARE fearfully and wonderfully made by God. I love you just as you are because there is no one else like you. Thanks for helping me to grow through your blog.
