I wrote this last year..Dec 31, 2007..and thought I would share it on here. As i reread it, I realized how much these things are still true. I am blessed with wonderful family, wonderful friends, and great opportunities!

As 2007 comes to an end, I have looked back and realized that I have learned many new things.

1. Perseverance pays off...

2. It doenst matter how long somethings takes, as long as you see it all the way through.

3. Someone wont change because you want them to. the best thing to
do is to set an example and stick to who you personally want to be, and
hope that it rubs off.

4. Pray about everything, even the little decisions.

5. It is okay to be single, it doesnt mean you are alone, just means that you are waiting for something better.

6. It is okay to take time for yourself, if not, you will run yourself ragged and then you will need a LOT of time for yourself.

7. Communication is the key... talk it out and figure out a
solution. Other wise, you may try to fix a problem that never existed.

8. Never stop telling the people important to you that they are.
For some might not ever realize the impact they have had on your life.

As I look at the key things that I learned this year, I realize what
an incredible stride forward I have made. I am thankful for that.
All in all, this has been a good year and I am looking forward to the
events and people that the Lord has set forth for me to experience and
meet in the coming year.

So, goodbye 2007...you have been good to me

and Hello 2008, I know it will be even better.
