Missives - Self Introspection

Dear Self-

You've been writing letters for almost a month to everyone else, now it's your turn. It has been a time of self-introspection. You have spent much of the last year looking inward. At times it has been hard, and at other times it has been eye opening. The most rewarding part was to look inside and see how much you've changed for the better. Your more bold, but more caring. You think more of others and less of yourself. Your faith is more centered.

What can you look for in the future? Just learn to live life one day at a time and enjoy all the moments. Life is really short and the little ones grow up so fast. Always remember how your son adores you. He always wants your hugs and to call you at work. He trusts you to take care of him. Even when he expresses his desire for independence, he always looks to your for approval. He copies what you say, so make sure you want your words coming out of his lips and your actions out of his hands.

Then there is your wonderful wife. She sees in you great potential, even more than you can see in yourself. She loves you more than anyone ever has. She gives everything to you, make sure you give everything to her. With her, you are never alone even when your are separate. Life is good and you have learned a great deal from both the hard times and the not so hard times.

Your Self,

Dave
