Phew, i am done




This is it folks, it is official; I am done with the challenge and, after this post, have finished all 30. I apologize in advance if it gets too long.



Day 29 → Something you hope to change about yourself. And why.

Change? This is something that many people have difficulty with. Me, not so much, I like change. I would love to change my current cash flow. I would also like to change my waistline. The stretch marks on my middle section from carrying three HUGE babies and gaining very little weight during my pregnancies…definite CHANGE. Personality? Nope, I love me and wouldn’t change it.



Day 30 → A letter to yourself, tell yourself EVERYTHING you love about yourself

Dear MaeRae,

Are you aware of the fact that you are an inspiration to others? I know you hear it on a regular basis and have a hard time accepting it, but it is true. I love the way that you have raised your little boys into great men that will make a woman very happy. I love the way that even at the age of 14 and 17 they still climb on your lap to have their backs rubbed or the hair combed through with your fingers.

I love your love for your friends. It is a great thing to feel the love for a friend even if you had not seen one of them for a long time.

I love your words of inspiration and your genuine feeling of pride for people that you don’t even know.

I love the fact that your smile is a constant. I am very proud of you for the strength that you have to voice your dislike for something or someone but not keep it deep inside. You have this great strength to LET IT GO. I am even more proud of you for growing that even more over the course of the last year.

I love your new sense of completion. You persevered through these 30 days of Truth and completed it. Great job.

I love your sense of family and the love you have for all of them.

I love you and all you do! Keep up the great work.

Love always,

Me

First off - congrats on finishing the challenge - my hats off to you!

Second, I love the letter to yourself. In fact, at church this last week, I had my young women write a letter to themselves that is now sealed and will be given to them on their wedding days.

What a great thing - and I love yours!

That last letter is a good idea, too many people don't stop to think about what is really good about themselves.

Congrats on finishing!
