Yes, I do so hate feeling defective somehow. I feel disposable. . Goodness, sometimes I wish I was still homeschooled, because I really don't want to be treated as undesirable or somehow inferior. I mean, I think I am, but I would really rather people not base that off of me just being a teenage boy.

I haven't had much experience with people thinking I was inferior because I was a teenage boy or whatever, but I think they'll do that no matter what. Homeschooling to hide from it won't prepare you for later on in life. Home school is something to consider anyway, with all the crap going on in schools, but people will always be basing things based off your looks. If you learn to be who you want to be, and to portray that, they'll realize they were wrong.

It's amazing how different experiences can be. I'm homeschooled, but my problem is with thinking I'm better than other people. Also, nobody really judges me based on my teenage boy status.

Quote

Matthew 6:

16 ¶ Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to ^afast. Verily I say unto you, They ^bhave their reward.

17 But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;

18 That thou appear not unto men to ^afast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall ^breward thee openly.

 

[The Wandering Wizard he/him]

Fasting is easier for me when I have a reason that I'm fasting for. So try keeping someone in need in your thoughts and fast for them when you do. I can promise that it will be easier to ignore the hunger pains. Also try preparing the day before by thinking about what you are going to fast for. That was a thought that came to me last night and I thought that I should share it.

Okay, true, maybe I was complaining a bit. But to be fair it was five minutes before dinner and the food smelled really delicious. 

I didn't mean to be a hypocrite and definitely don't regret my fast; it's one of the things I cherish most about my month.

You watch The Chosen too? Nice

[Edema Rue she/her]

We watched it as soon as it became available last night it was so good!!

I didn’t have to fast yesterday because we had stake conference. Except that it means I’ll be alone doing it next week.

I got to watch the Chosen for the first time last night!! I love it so much!!!

[Wittles he/him]

I think I need to watch the Chosen now

[Edema Rue she/her]

You really do. Some of the episodes have made me cry. 

(Although I tend to overthink things, so a lot of things make me cry).

[Lord Gregorio he/him]

I haven't seen the freaking Chosen finale yet. I really want to.

[Adolinalsium he/him]

Me and my family binged the chosen season 3 yesterday, it's amazing! I feel like the way the characters are portrayed is perfect.

[Immortal Platypus]

our family is now watching it every Sunday night for our family gospel study. But I don't want to wait a whole week. HELP!!!!

[Thaidakar the Ghostblood he/him]

I'm going to watch the finale for season three sometime soon.

Like, I could've been in their ward, but no... Then again, their cousins were already in the ward when I was there.
