to whom it may concern,

Today I woke up and felt a new strength.  I decided I would fast and pray.  "Things are going to change, starting today," I told myself.

When I arrived to my first class, I found out it had been canceled, so I spent the morning reading my Bible, praying, and listening to worship music.  I walked down to the post office to drop off a letter, then to the BSM to chill out until my next class.  I didn't nearly think of her as much as I have been.  Things were starting to change.

I'm trying my best not to lose this strength.  There's a portion of my day that I'm intentionally leaving out.  Maybe I can forget about it.  It seems I mistook this new-felt strength for invincibility.  "The bigger the fool, the harder the fall," right?  I crashed and burned, and for the past hour I'm not even sure what I've been doing.

Things are going to change though.  I'm going to devote the rest of the day to making this a reality, not for you, not for anyone else, but for God and for myself.  I hate the way I've been, and no matter how much I want things to revert to how they were, I'd much rather become a better person through this.

Today, things are going to change.

From Jim Rohn:

"You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself. That is something you have charge of."

sincerely,
vm

  1. Maybe I should take after you and change my life. I think that maybe if I DID something out of the ordinary, I will get different results. Thanks for your letters, vm. ♥
