Amish people

are pretty damn smart

"Flowers grow in the least expected places. Those in the limelight are not necessarily more pleasant to be with than those in the dim corners"

"Who knows, you might be doing him a favor and help him see things in a different light. If you are meant for each other, God will work out the details if you let Him"

"Do you understand what makes this young man act the way he does? People who have a high opinion of themselves rarely boast. Usually the person who is boastful and seems proud does not really feel that way inside - instead, he is a person who feels inferior, with low self-esteem."

Andy,
I agree with you - these quotes are pretty insightful. Are they from your book that you are reading for your Amish class? I think that it would be interesting to learn about their culture and beliefs - especially since their day to day life is so different than ours (like when you posted about how they do not have mirrors). Thanks for sharing their insight and helping me learn something new!
Have a good night,
Em
