Goals

Hey R,

I have been thinking about you lately. I was doing some emails the other day and your name kept popping up. I tend to think about you a lot, and miss you even more.

I decided that winter is no fun anymore. I really don't like being cold and when it's cloudy and gray it makes it even worse. I can understand while people suffer from seasonal depression, who wouldn't be depressed in the winter when it's cold and cloudy. February is a really hard month for me, I am not quite sure why, but it is. It is the shortest month, but yet it seems the longest of the year. I have decided to try and do something that might make me feel better. This is the month of love, at least the first two weeks, so I am going to give out some of my love.

Sometimes it seems people tend to forget to share love, they are so caught up in their own lives. I want to share this year, and have been thinking of ways to share. My goal is to share something each month, to make someones day brighter. This can help me think of others instead of the long winter and also how hard it is sometimes.

So goal one: Each month do something that shares my love, with someone. I will do this in my family as well as those around me. We are always taught it is better to give than to receive, and I sometimes forget that. So many others in my life have given to me in times when I really needed it, and so I want to do the same.

Do you ever wonder why no one writes letters anymore? We send emails, texts, call those on cell phones, but not many people actually sit down and write a letter. It bothers me that I get bills in the mail, and not much else. I wanted to do something else fun this year. I love to write, I can sometimes write really well, and also want to write a book someday. So this year I decided I am also going to try and write to two people a month. I should have enough friends for that right? Hopefully I will get some responses, if not it will be fun writing any way.

Goal Two: I am going to write two people a month, a hand written letter and mail it. I am going to get some good stationary and write to some really great friends.

I am not going to try and loose weight, and I am not going to try and be healthy, I believe I am already doing that. I don't like New Years resolutions, and so I am going to go back to the YW days and set some goals. I am actually getting excited about setting these goals and actually really trying to achieve them.

Remember my friend to always know that Spring is around the corner, the trees will come alive again, the flowers will bloom, the weather will become warm, and spirits will be risen. I must take my own advice and remember that we are so blessed to live in this world. I miss you my friend, I hope our paths will cross again soon.

Until then,
Love you,
