I understand you. I see your worth.
Growing up in a large, Homeschooled, Christian family, there's something
l've realized...
Us homeschooled Kids understand each other.
We both know what it's like to go out in public and have all eyes on you.
We know the feeling of no one remembering your name because you don't stand out as an individual.
We know the cruel look that people give as they gape their mouth open, while silently finger counting how many kids are in the family.
We get the fact that people look down us, thinking we weren't properly educated, and that being "sheltered" means we’re mentally handicapped and dumb. When actually, it's quite the opposite!
Public schools are raising… well, not so smart people, y’all.
Just the truth! Not that there’s never a good individual who rarely makes it out of those toxic places, because I know of some. But, let’s face it, most are not coming out any better off.
We know what it’s like to have waited your whole life to be counted as an actual person, to finally be noticed as YOU, and not just lumped together as "the kids."
We can actually appreciate the rare others who were raised like us.
We see their worth, their importance, their individuality.
We want to find those kind of people because that's who we're attracted to! They're our "type" if you will.
Yes, there are those weird, freaky families that give the rest of us a bad name. (Everyone knows at least one of those… Sadly.)
But we understand the difference.
We can see how valuable a virgin who has stayed pure their whole life for their future spouse is, because that’s who we are; and that’s what is so rare these days.
(Although we tend to devalue ourselves because we’ve just never felt important.)
Public schools are not raising virgins, unless it’s an involuntary one.
Us homeschooled, large family, christians can literally look at each other in the face, and understand each other.
We know that look, that feeling, that emotion, that normal way of life.
We get it. We were made for each other.
It's just a fact.
I'm not interested in public schooled guys.
I don't care about flirty, sleezy, whoremongers.
I don't need someone who can't appreciate me, and who doesn't see my worth.
And furthermore, I don't need a bummy, city slick who can’t get their hands dirty. Seriously unattractive. Not cute.
I’m attracted to masculinity, spirituality, and maturity.
Everything else will fall into place after that.
I understand you... I See your worth. 💙
Nice post, Grace! I totally get it and agree!

True post, Grace! And you know, I agree with most of it, although I might not actually get to marry a homeschooled guy at my old age… ha (I’m 28 and desiring a guy anywhere from 28-38, and he probably won’t be homeschooled…).
ReplyDeleteOf course, I’m not giving up on that! But he might just be like Dad and Mom where they were protected throughout public school. Who knows… The Lord’s will will be done! 🩵🩵🩵😊
