Dear me

Dear me,

Ok, I’m going to be real with you. You and I both know there was a time when we were extremely disciplined and determined to reach your goals. However in the past couple of years our lives have spiraled into disorder and chaos and even fear. Remember a couple years ago when we would caused chaos on the court for the other team. People saw the professional in us and told us we had it in us to go pro. Or when we stumbled into graphic design; it was like we’ve been doing it our whole lives. And writing; we have so much raw untainted talent with endless creativity. We were on our way to great heights but fear got into us. Not the fear to succeed but the fear of failing. That really crippled us. I mean not to long ago we wouldn’t do something so we wouldn’t fail at it. But when we were younger we would practice and work so hard that we wouldn’t fail. But it doesn’t matter how we got here, what matter is what we do today, and everyday.

Take a look back at 08’. We got dismissed from school; fired from our jobs, and lost the love of our lives. And a few years before that when Nana pasted, we turned from a pack rat to a hoarder. There are days when we hated our own rooms. For years we kept saying we have hit rock bottom and after every year we hit a new low. And I don’t know about you but I’m tried of saying that. Plus I don’t want to know how much lower we can get.
This nation has changed with the coming of our first black president, so it’s time for us to change as well. We know what we want to do and we know what it will take to get there, plus we are hungry for it. Let stop dreaming our dreams only in our heads and let’s go live it. Take 08 and learn from it to make a better 09. Yes, we have failed but we are still here and we can still come back from this. We got fired but we got a new job this year. We got kicked out of school but we are in community college. This year we are going to get associates that will help us get a job in graphic design. Get back in to college and get your bachelors. You lost you love but you did everything you could do. Don’t hold your head down. If we are meant to be, then all of will change and we will make it back in our lives.

With our room we are going to take February and go through everything and let go of some of our things. Remember you are not letting of the memories just the objects.

Basketball is going to involve the most pain but we are up to it. By the end of February we will have a trainer. And they’re going to help us with getting back in shape and dropping weight. But let’s take it a step father a go to the gym and play pick up with the guys to get your eye back.

With writing we need to get into the habit of writing everyday. So at the beginning of the week we are going to set a goal and reach it. If we do there will be a reward and if we don’t depending on what happen there will be a punishment. Al so make it a point to find out what it is we need to improve on and make the steps to improve. And find out as much as we can about the writing business because we plan on being in that as well
Now we need to take this year and hit the ground running. And if we fall…and we might, don’t worry just get up and keep running. Don’t worry about who walks in and out of your life, I will always be here with you running right beside you. And I'm not going anywhere. But we need this…it’s time we do this…so lets go!
