December 30 Future Self

December 30  write a letter to yourself to read on 12/30/12. Write about what you have accomplished. Write about who you are and who you have become. Write a wishlist.

Dear Beth,
Hope you have been well and doing all the things that you enjoy. I really hope that you have found a hobby that  you find fascinating and that involves both Edik and Brian.

I bet you are still loving being a grandmother. You certainly delighted in that the last time we talked. I remember all you could talk about was the last time you saw Malachi and Eli. You were so excited to know if your next grand baby was a boy or a girl. So what was it? Have you got to spend more time with your favorite little men?

I really have enjoyed watching you as you have been making your transition from women to middle age women. It has not been quite as horrible as so many of your friends have made it out to be has it? You are doing it with grace and keeping in style. You were lucky you found the light therapy and acid peals, I think that has really helped you.

How has your retirement went? Are you doing the travel and the ministry that you talked about doing last year? It was so cool that you were able to get back into doing the AWANA program again. I bet that has opened a lot of doors for ministry for you.

I remember when you helped the family that had been robbed, did they ever start coming to church, and AWANA, I wonder if any of them accepted the Lord. Please let me now if you have been able to help any other people.

I was wondering if you were able to make any friends, I know you were very lonely for the last few years. I am sure you have been having fun with your friends Doug and Carol you were telling me about. What was the last trip you went on with Bruce,Lori, Steve and Tracey?

Well take it easy on yourself, you are an amazing women. I love the way you share the Lord with people and how you are always looking for ways to help people. Keep your eyes on the Lord and He will make your path straight, I know you are a delight in your Fathers eyes, and I love you very much!

Love Beth
