As I sit here, writing this letter, summer close
to an end, 26 years of life slowly creeping up on me, I am reminded that this
day in history Gandhi began one of his famous hunger strikes to protest the
British Government because they separated India's electoral votes into a caste
system. Or that yesterday marked the 50th anniversary of the Birmingham Alabama
church bombing that killed four girls.
This time of year has always been one that causes me to reflect internally. Life, you may not have been without challenges but you have always been beautiful and for that I thank you. This week I vow to put in practice some of the life lessons you have taught me. I shall
→ Help a stranger in need
→ Choose to see the good in all
→ Make the weekend one to remember ( more to come. Praying it all works out)
→ Take advantage of every opportunity given to me
→ Take a moment to stop in marvel at your beauty.
So life, consider this not only my letter to you but my promises. "Here's to you kid."
