22

It's officially my birthday and I seem to be doing better. My outlook is brighter. I have recognized Satan and refuse to give him footholds in my life.

22 goals for 22:

1) Run a few races. 5K, Tulsa Run. Sign up.
2) Get freelance work just for fun.
3) More me time.
4) More writing time.
5) Life of constant prayer.
6) Be better with budgeting time and money.
7) Look for ways I can serve people, even if they don't ask for it.
8) More creative time for painting, sketching, making, creating.
9) Look for ways I can capitalize on little things and be excited about them.
10) Read 20 books.
11) Learn how to cook more.
12) Move.
13) Simplify my life and assets. Goodbye, old clothes!
14) Get published in a magazine.
15) Advance in my career. Work on being the best in my career.
16) Be a better friend, girlfriend, sister, and daughter.
17) Write more letters.
18) Talk to strangers.
19) Learn about new subjects like French language, stem cell research, and sheep-herding.
20) Lose all concept of self and therefore find myself in Christ.
21) Get back into singing, possibly in a worship band.
22) Be more organized.

...and one to grow on...

23) Forget "The Man" and live my life anyway. Defy him. Prove him WRONG!

What a great frame of mind to be in at 22! Don't feel bad if you don't master all that before you hit 30 though! LOL!

Is it true that you and my son have the same b-day? Yippee goodness! God made good people on that day...

Cheers!
