Shape Up Or Else!

Okay, today I'm thankful for real people who are willing to tell it like it is.  I read an article this morning written by a person who feels certain people are not living up to their God-given expectations.  There was no "if you feel like it" or "think about it".  It was straight up and straight to the heart.  I appreciate that.  I also appreciate certain princess' who nag when promises aren't being kept (if I knew how to put a heart right here I would - teach me, J!).  I think when it comes down to it, a true friend (or a person who really, truly, honestly has your best interest at heart) will tell you what you need to hear, even if sometimes it hurts or isn't what you want to hear.  As long it's done with sincerity and love from an honest heart, people need to hear the truth and I'm thankful for those people who have the guts and compassion to do that.  A.
