Dear Shirley:

So there is Dave and Andrew and your special friend. You can’t change your special friend insecurity, only encourage him, as you have. As he has been encouraging you. And hope that over time he will feel more secure as he makes good choices for himself and as he seeks your comforting and chooses wisely who he does interact with and how. Wisely choosing the people in our lives is very important to our well being.

I see, squatting and lifting weights while your heels are on an incline, for crying out loud! It almost hurts to imagine it. I am glad you improved your strength, endurance, flexibility and balance. And that the coach encourages his students to get stronger, physically and mentally (the two do go together!)

You were very helpful to your parents with their re-certification. I hope they appreciate it and be easy on you because you have enough on your plate as is.

Glad driving went well. I thought about you today, thinking Tuesday was a big day for you! Glad you are in good spirits regarding your spirituality which is a great source of comfort and inspiration for you!

Take good care of you!
