Dear 2007,
Yesterday I was at home wondering what you would be like. I didn't have an idea as to what you would look like or what you had to offer me. All I knew was that I hoped you were different and you would make me a better person. And after meeting you earlier today, I knew that was true.
I will not give you a list of things that I will do or change about myself for us to be happy together. Instead, I will just go through each day with you one step at a time. I will not ask you to make me grow as that is not what you're here for. All I can offer us both is hope. I know somewhere along the way we'll have our share of heartaches and disappointment about our lives, but I believe that we will get through it. We will survive.
Your stay with me will be short-lived and I know you will leave me with nothing but memories. And I sure do hope they will all be good ones. Life will not be fair to us, but we sure will live with it for it is so goddamn worth living.
Welcome to my world, welcome to my life.
Yours,
ageage
