My 30 Days of Truth challenge I will admit that I changed one question and changed a few curse words... other than that the challenge is intact.
Dear Self...
Wow! Where to start?...
We've been through so much... we've seen so much... sharing so much along the way.
I am so proud of you for hanging in there time after time, and for never looking the other way.
I am so proud of your inner strength, as I am proud of your weaknesses. I am proud of your constant desire to help others as well.
I am proud of how you've faced adversary, worked your way around obstacles and how you've fought through all the tribulations in your life... I am even proud of how you have picked yourself up after every negative situation that was thrown at you... and never being afraid of admitting your faults.
Most importantly I am so proud for your sincere desire to better yourself each day... your desire to be the person your children and husband would always be proud of... as well as your desire to always do the right thing.
Keep up the great work... never taking your eyes off the prize. {and} whatever you do... don't ever forget about the big picture.
With much love...
Your self.
With God's grace.
Whoever gets sense loves his own soul; he who keeps understanding will discover good. ~Proverbs 19-8

I think this particular exercise would be a very difficult one to do...
You made it look easy. Love it, love it, love it!
What a lovely letter to yourself. It was a sweet picture into your heart.
What a wonderful letter to yourself! You talk so nice to yourself. ;) Hope you have are having a great week.
Carla I love this post. I am going to have to use this idea for day 30. I wrote a poem once with the sentence "a woman just needs to take time to look in the mirror and love who she sees" (something like that), but I think a good idea is also a love letter to yourself. Thank you for the inspiration. I am proud of myself for so many things but I fail to recognize myself - you know what I mean?
Wow! In today's world it's amazing how quickly people can point out their own faults and how hard it is to appreciate themselves. I admire your posting this letter to self
This is a great exercise, and probably should be done every day!;)
