Abstract

l continue to “do my best,” but I want your word that I can look to you when I seek answers. I think that’s fair.We make deals not only with others but with ourselves as well. Within goals come self-affirmations. I’ve got my sights set on something, but I can’t be the only one to get myself there, right? You need help. Shoot, we all do.

No, I didn’t forget. I keep telling myself that anyway. It’s just jarring, that’s all. I’ve never been to a place like this before. It’s completely new and unexplored territory. I just really hope that as I chug along, you’ll grant me some insight while I go. Is that too much to ask? It’s like I’m asking for the gift and also the ability to contain it.
