so, last nights sermon taught me a few things.. mainly on humility, and being transparent. i guess for me being transparent is still something i have to work on, but i really can't see it happeneing.. like a whole churchful of people being totally open and transparent to each other. If that were the case, then there wouldn't be any secrets, or anything left to gossip about since everyone is transparent. From the way i see it, there are always gonna be that small number of black sheep that always stuff things up, they're the ones that would end up judging you, or even badmouthing you to others, and then the whole system of transparency would just fail. I mean don't we all have secrets that we wished no one else would ever know about? To actually be totally transparent to somebody, like 100% open, no hiding any truths, or distorting facts, or bringing across in a way that doesn't make u look as bad, would require sooo much trust in that person and faith in the relationship that you have. Transparency that im talking about can be a really tough nut to crack, but is also one of the most basic steps in moving forward in your Christian walk. What's the worst that could happen? ..exposing the monster inside..
