Read this, Holly

I hope you're happy. I hope you're healthy. Right now you're so self-destructive; you need to stop drinking, stop the drugs and make yourself better. I hope you've let all these people help you. I hope you have more direction than you do right now. I have so many hopes for you that I can't even get them all written down. I hope you love yourself.

Sounds pretty simple, but the trick is being able to identify when you actions do not bring life to those you have relationships with. When your wife is angry or your son does something that ticks you off, it is really no big deal. It only becomes a big deal w...

Summertime

Dear FutureMe, Well, hello! I bet it's hot out, isn't it? That's truly unfortunate. I remember last summer (that's summer of 2005, you know. So close I could almost touch it!) it got so hot I just wanted to die. Days and days of scorching heat. Boy, that sucked. It's probably a lot like that now, isn't it? Well, I'm pretty comfortable here in my nice room on December 23, 2005. Yep. Got ...
