What do you think? I have been told that I have a special flower that is all mine… the Narcissus because I’m narcissistic. hardee har har.
Do I post too many pics of myself? There used to be a time where I would not let anyone take any pics, therefore we don’t have many of me at all. Now I take pics like every week and there are some who think its too much! 
Well I figured out this cool new way to wear my hair and I really like it. I’ve been trying some new things with it. I did a pompadour, did some side braids, messy buns, straight down, and then I did this:
Plus I love leather barrettes!

hahaha I am told I take too many of myself too!
It is because I take photos of everyone all the time so I am not in many photos, so I take some of myself so I can have photos of me too!

No, I don’t think you are narcissistic. It is your blog–about you. This is how we get to know you–seeing your face. Sometimes words just don’t cut it. You know the expression–a picture is worth…
I used to wear my hair that way. I haven’t for a very long time. Might be time to try it again. Thank you for posting the pic showing it

Because you asked:
Narcissism
Excessive preoccupation with self and lack of empathy for others.
Narcissism is the personality trait that features an exaggerated sense of the person’s own importance and abilities. People with this trait believe themselves to be uniquely gifted and commonly engage in fantasies of fabulous success, power, or fame. Arrogant and egotistical, narcissists are often snobs, defining themselves by their ability to associate with (or purchase the services of) the “best” people. They expect special treatment and concessions from others. Paradoxically, these individuals are generally insecure and have low self-esteem. They require considerable admiration from others and find it difficult to cope with criticism. Adversity or criticism may cause the narcissistic person to either counterattack in anger or withdraw socially. Because narcissistic individuals cannot cope with setbacks or failure, they often avoid risks and situations in which defeat is a possibility.
Only you can answer the question whether you are narcissistic or not but the fact that you even ask the question probably indicates that you are not.
A narcissist basically loves talking about themselves and being admired by others and would really not usually ask what others had to say especially if it was a negative response. 
Besides your concern for the suffering Christians around the world shows that you care for others as much or more so than yourself.
That being said, I love what you did with your hair and you are a very beautiful young lady, but you really should not share so much personal information in cyber space for your own safety. You never know who may be lurking in the shadows of cyberspace.
God bless and thanks for sharing the new do

I like your hair that way. Like I told you IRL.
I think the whole picture-taking thing was about the photos you framed recently, not that you post too many photos of yourself.
And the thing about the Narcissus is ridiculous, like I told you before.[but that is just my opinion. Maybe having your friends tell you will make you believe it.:/ ]
Love you,

Lol, hey, this is your blog. If you want to post pictures of yourself go ahead! You’ll always get someone who won’t like what you post.
I personally like seeing pictures of you.
Just don’t stop doing something because ’somebody thinks’ or ’somebody says’. If you believe that you have a problem and God wants you to stop, than do so. But if you don’t, than don’t.

Wow! Your hair looks so pretty like that! I wouldn’t really know if you post to many pics of yourself or not, I only just started following. But, I am sure you aren’t posting them just because you want praise or something. Also, It gives us a little bit more knowledge about who you are. Your likes and dislikes. I don’t mind a lot of pics of you. Why shouldn’t you share pics of yourself? After all, God made you to be a beautiful girl inside and out. Each time you share a new photo, we are able to see God shining through you all over again. Keep up the great work!

You’re young, your happy, your full of energy, you just want to spread Sonshine all over the place and you can’t do it in person, so picutres are fine. I like your new style too, I remember when my mother wore her hair like that. As they say “You wear it well”!!!

Very pretty! I’ve been trying some new hair styles myself. I used to just put my hair up in a ponytail everyday, but that got very boring very fast!
The other day I got a piece of paper and wrote down all the different hair styles I knew. It was quite surprisingly a lot! I’m glad you and Kristin showed me how to do a pompadour. It’s added a lot of variety to what I do with my hair.

As with most things, the issue is far more your heart than your actions. Thus, you can’t become less narcissistic simply by cutting back on the number of pictures you post.
Granted, if you are narcissistic, posting less pictures of yourself may be a good spiritual discipline to help you move forward, but the pictures aren’t the problem.
So, are you narcissistic? Only you and God know. I’d be leery of anyone who claims to know your heart unless they can demonstrate through their experiences with you that your picture posting is based in pride.

No way do you post too many pics…I enjoy them! I see that it has also already been asked above, but would you also e-mail me a “how-to” for the hairstyle? I like wearing my hair down as well, so a little change that allows it to still be down would be nice.
Blessings to your day!

I came across your “Year in review” and found this one. Your cheerful disposition always brings such a smile to my face! I don’t know how anyone can NOT smile when they see your pics.
So, whether you are narcissistic or not,they are a blessing. God will be the judge of your heart’s motive!
Have a blessed New Year, Amanda!
