As of recent, I have not felt the way that I should.
I am looking forward to making notable changes in my life and in others lives
as well. I took some time to reflect on some of the things I enjoy. Making this
list was therapeutic, in and of itself. I am guilty of overlooking many of
these things.There is so much good in the world. Here are some of
the things I love and need to do. You should do them too.
- Fall in love. ♥

- Everybody loves to look attractive. Putting on that pretty dress and heels will have you feeling better in no time.
- Take a few deep breaths. You are likely to feel some sense of relief.
- Compliment yourself. Don’t look at what is “wrong with you.” Look at what you’re doing that is RIGHT!

Kayli,
ReplyDeleteI love to read everything you post. Whether it be happy or sad, it's always wonderful. You have made such a difference in my life over this past year. You really are the most beautiful, compassionate, and loving person I know. There isn't a bad bone in your body. You are going to help so many people in your life. You understand pain. You understand heartache. You understand joy. Thank you for being you.
I agree with the comment above me. You really are amazing Kayli. You are a great catch. I think that anybody would be crazy not to marry you. Im surprised you are still available. I love you and your family. Stay positive.
