I want to be better. I need to be better.


Lord, I need you. Always.

Day 19 - Someone that pesters your mind—good or bad

Dear jgbvjhvj,
I worry for you, you pester my mind from time to time. Sometimes good, sometimes bad. As of right now you're headed down a path that will only lead to a broken heart. I wish you would listen to those good ones around you. But of course, we must learn the hard way. Stubborn young souls. Just know, when you do fall, I'll still be there to help you back up. Until then, I'll just keep praying for you.

Sincerely,
Lisa

Day 18 - The person that you wish you could be

Dear Person I wish I could be,
I don't know who you are, but I do know that you're probably a lot more smarter. A lot more disciplined. A lot more spiritual. Those are things I wish I had more of. To be smarter, have more will power, and to be more into my faith than I already am. I don't look at people and say and wish I were them.. cause I actually am happy I'm me. No one can be me. But I do wish from time to time that I could change certain things ABOUT me. And that's not wrong at all. We should always strive to be better. Better children. Better friends. Better lovers. Better siblings. Better Christians. Just better. I want to be better. I need to be better. Not for you, not for anyone. I need to be better for me. Better myself so that I may help better others. So with that being said.. To the person who I wish I could be, I will be you someday, but even better. Promise.

Sincerely,
Lisa

Day 17 - Someone from your childhood

Dear Joe,
I remember when we first met. I wanted to be your friend cause you and Joanne had candy during church. Haha. We eventually did become friends. Good friends. I loved when our sisters and us would battle each other in my living room. Wrestling was fun. Swimming was crazy. I saved your life countless times cause you didn't know how to swim and almost took me and joanne down with you. Your house was fun too! Computer boxes always make me smile due to all 4 of us getting in and rolling down the stairs and of the couch until we got in trouble cause it wasn't "safe" pfft! We had pillows inside we yelled. Haha. I remember when we had each others backs on the play ground. But we went our separate ways. One day as I was building a sick sand castle.. I saw you walking toward the park, and I thought.. "oh hey he's gonna help me!" but you didn't.. instead you fasten your pace and started running towards me towards my castle.. you jumped on it and other guys joined in. I was so upset. I told you "Joseph, you've gone bad! You shouldn't be like this." You replied with "Ya? Well you shouldn't hang out with _____ cause that's just as bad too!" I then just got up and left. We went our ways until one day when your buddy pushed me off the swings and you then punched him for doing so.. and his sister started pulling you so I pulled his sister off you. Haha. You gave me a look and I knew that we still had each others back.

Sadly we lost that friendship due to moving away from that church, ever since then things have changed. We're friends again, but of course its not the same. Were both adults now, but I know we still have each others backs. :} You're an awesome friend Joe.

Sincerely,
Lisa

Day 16 - Someone that’s not in your state/country

Dear Grandma,
I miss you so much! I love visiting you in Texas. You make me smile and laugh. Your words are so wise, your smile is heart touching. (even with that missing tooth.) I wish you lived closer, or even lived with us. I know I don't talk to you as much as I should on the phone, I know how much you want us grand kids to visit you and communicate with you. I sometimes wish I could just tell you all about my life, but something always stops me. I remember when I would write you letters all the time when I was younger, I honestly don't know why I stopped. I should probably start that again. I want to have a stronger relationship with you while you're still here. Hopefully I can visit you sometime next year. Thank you for all your gifts but especially your sweet prayers. I love you so much and so do butterflies.<3

Sincerely,
Your Grand Daughter.

You are my missing piece.

Tomorrow will is the 4th of July.. My 4th of Julys will always be bittersweet. I'll always have a missing piece to that day. Beva. The 4th is her day. The day she was born.. If she were still here.. Tomorrow I'd come home and open my door to my old room and she'd be there to greet me like no other pet has. We'd then snuggle up together and both shake to the sound of the fireworks.. Or watch it on tv. I would then let her eat all the food she wanted. And then we would go to sleep happy and snug. As little as she was, she sure could keep me warm. Boy do I miss her so so much.

Tonight I will go to sleep thinking of you. Wishing you'd be here when I wake. I love you, Beva.

I'm so ready!

Ready for this 4 day weekend! I hope it's magical!

Day 15 - The person you miss

Dear Person I miss,
I'll keep your name to myself just because. We used to be really close. But things recently changed. I was completely honest with you and in return you turned your back to me. I only wanted what was best for you. I've never done you wrong. But here I am, being treated as if I did. I know you know that all I said was true. I know you feel the same way too, but you're just too deep into what you want, and not about whats right. Even though what you think is right puts you down most of the time. It saddens me that we've grown closer and then take a bunch of steps back whenever it comes down to this. It's always this way.. I thought you'd have learned by now. But I have this feeling that it will stay this way this time. You've done things you can't take back. You're so blinded to this day. This year you've changed. For the better? No. So to the person I miss... it's not you who I miss, but who you USED to be. As of right now, were as good as strangers are. I get the drift. I just hope you'll consider all I've said to you out of pure good. You know I'm here for you whenever you do need me. You are an awesome friend when you want to be. I do sorta miss you, don't be gone for too long now.

Sincerely,
Lisa

Day 14 - Someone you’ve drifted away from

Dear Antonella,
First of I'd like to say, I love you dearly and miss you just as much. Sadly, we've drifted away. FAR FAR AWAY. We used to talk nonstop. Everyday. Now we talk a little here and there. I believe the last time we talked was at Joyce's party. I don't even think we said bye to each other. It makes me sad. I know even though we have drifted, it never feels that way once were together. At least we have that. I know you're busy and so am I. . I just hope we never drift so far to where we just don't care anymore. You know I'm always here for you. Especially when you want to tell me stories. I love those. I hope that we can start drifting closer again. Someday, someday soon.

Sincerely,
your partner in crime. :}
