I'm always having coversations about life and love with my friends. This past week, while on a three way--we were discussing things we would like to improve about our lives. The list was LONG! whistle

After a much lengthy conversation; we decided on five things...only five...that we would work on for the next two years. If you did it in less time--great! The point was, not to go overboard; but just to improve our way of life. Not that everything was bad; but just to enhance ourlives. And by doing so, we realize we enhance the lives of those around us.

So, what five things do you want to improve in your life?

Okay, just to be fair, I'll name my five, then you can tell me yours!

1. My Health!!! (How many have that one?) crazy I definitely have to shed some pounds! I want to enjoy my family for a long time.
2. My Communication Skills. I want to improve my non-verbal skills. I'm really not that shy...really! blush
3. My Spiritual relationship. I always want to improve on my walk with God. This is something that I need; not just want.
4. Saving money. I want to be able to pay off all my student loans, and still have a healthy savings account. We never know what's going to happen in life. We really do need to save for rainy days!
5. Business skills. The world is constantly changing with new technologies and financial woes. I want my business to thrive. And, in order for me to do this, I must improve my skills on a daily basis--staying informed and abreast of all changes and advancements that affect my business.

Okay. I've told you mine...now tell me yours. Perhaps we can help one another out and start on a fresh journey together. Let's see who can make their lists a reality. All things are possible.

While you're thinking of five things: I have a challenge for you.
Who said the following: "To err is human; to forgive is divine".

Please. Try to think of it first, before going to google! wink

Blessings to you,
Ruthe

That's wonderful, Marie! I'm so excited about Obama! They have a campaign office right down the street from where I live! The PA primaries are on the 22nd! I get to work the polls! It's going to be quite interesting!

I wish I had room in my house...I would definitely house one of the volunteers!

Ruthe, your list of five is great. If I can at least get your #1 done, I'll be a real happy camper.
