so i lost something that i have been looking for for a while now. In my quest to rack my brain as it to where it might be i decided to open up a box i hadnt seen for awhile. Over the years since i was a little girl i have kept this big ol box of stuff. stuff that to most people wouldnt be worth saving. As I dusted it off it opened to a world of memories. I found myself sobbing for a long time I found letters from old friends, new friends, principals, boyfriends, counselors, mentors and even old letters from my most famous of pen pals. It was amazing to revisit the past even for a few minutes.
here is the thing we spend so much time taking things for granted that we take ourselves for granted. We forget that for as many blessings as we have We are the blessing to so many. When I was reading these cards i had forgotten about all the nice stuff that I had done for people and how I had touched them (usually when i wasnt trying) This isnt a post about being conceited or humble. More like a reminder to take sometime every once in awhile and revisit your old box. Remember that you are a gift and its ok. We spend so much time wondering if we matter if we are loved if we will ever be worthy when the truth is we matter to more people than we even know. So my friends here is to you and all you have done to make this world better even for one person.
