On Beauty and Women

These are excerpts from a book I'm reading called "Captivating" written by John and Stasi Eldredge. It is absolutely changing my life and I felt that I had to share at least part of it with as many people as I can. I greatly encourage all women and even men for that matter to read this book. It has helped me so many of the questions I have about my life and being a woman, and has helped me come to terms with aspects of my eating disorder.

Here's a link to the book on amazon...

As a former U.S. Recon Marine and a Private Security Contractor, there is only one thing I've learned from my time in the world, is that everyone dies alone, and the only deaths I've seen is the human being in fear.

@missmcpirate shallow? surely that would be the last adjective most would think of here, as I sit condemning reality itself as being too shallow for my tastes.

A curious perspective and I would not mind if you elaborated.

@JustThink00 I think you have a very shallow and limited definition of beauty

Quotes from an amazing book. Captivating by John and Staci Elderedge.Boys & girls, this is some deep stuff. Soothes my weary soul.

could even a god rise above his own will? i seek freedom but if only so much of it is possible then i'll take that much untill i can find better. You point out that total free will is theoretically impossible because we never do anything without a reason. To that i can only say that i believe we have every freedom short of that, and perhaps if we can escape the chains of this world we may go beyond human comprehension and find more. In meditation i have glimpsed things that hint such

i absolutely see good in humanity and in children. As far back as i can remember into my childhood i wanted good for everyone and my only "selfish" desire was to understand the truth of myself and the universe so that i could accomplish true good. I believe that we all have a pure good soul somewhere but it is confused and suppressed by the desires of the flesh and maybe a false soul superimposed on it by god.
