Hey Dear http://www.bit.ly/2FyctII

Dear Self

Don't ever let yourself get so busy that you miss those little but important extras in life - the beauty of a day, the smile of a friend, the serenity of a quite moment alone. For it is often, life's smallest pleasures and gentlest joys that make the biggest And most lasting difference...

Dear Self

Seriously, how did you let this happen again?! Somehow I seem to think I'm not going to gain weight because I exercise so much. Ummm, not so at all!! Guess what, if you eat more calories than you burn off you gain weight. Easy as that. Well no more. I'm tired of seeing the scales say a weigh I've said time and time again I'd never weigh again. But it's more than what the scales say... I'm tired of clothes that should fit not fitting. I'm tired of feeling bloated, sluggish and out of breath. I think I'm even getting a double chin!! I've tried to eat in moderation this year but it's just not working. Maybe it works for some people but not me. I have all these extra pounds to lose now. And on top of that I have a bridal luncheon tomorrow, a picnic and a wedding on Saturday. AHHHHHHHHHH!!! It's never ending. I seem to constantly be bombarded by unhealthy foods and trust me, my weight is reflecting that. It's hard saying no when people, even more so when it's a special occasion. But it looks like I'm going to have to start saying NO!! And I'm going to have to start counting calories. __________ Life begins each morning....

Dear Self

Why do you abuse your body with food? Why do you always say that "tomorrow" I will start eating healthy so today I'll just eat whatever I feel like. You know that tomorrow never seems to come. You are strong. You have will power. You have lost weight before. You CAN DO THIS!!!

Dear Self

I know you have dreams and desires. But you need to realize that no matter how much you may want some of them too, they are not going to come true today, next week, next month or maybe even next year. Sure you want to adopt a baby. And it almost seems like the opportunity to do that very thing has all but been dangled right in front of your face. But you can't make it happen. You can't change the situation or the circumstances and make them work in your favor. Just because you want to do something(like adopt a baby) NOW, doesn't mean that it's God's will for you to do it NOW. Remember that patience is a virtue. Everything will happen when the time is right!

Dear Self

You overslept. And you hate it when that happens. It throws your whole schedule off. And to be fair to your alarm, it did go off. It's a bit foggy but I'm pretty sure you just weren't ready to hear it yet, and shut it off. Not a good thing. Maybe you really should think about going to bed a wee bit earlier. Then the early morning alarm wouldn't be such a nightmare. Besides, sleep is good for you and you NEVER get enough!!

Dear Self

Right now there are so many things running through your head. Some of them negative, some of them positive. But since I don't want to start this note to you with negativity I am going to focus on the positives instead.

1) I have a great life. Sure not all my dreams have some true. But if they had what in the world would I have to look forward too??

2) I was blessed with an incredible set of parents that love me and are always looking out for me.

3) My job, though getting busier, is taking a turn for the better. I have less time to sit around being bored and to me that is a GOOD thing!

4) God loves me and will no matter what.

5) I have super fun things coming up with in the next couple months. LOVE looking forward to trips!!

Be happy for this moment,
This moment is your life...
