"I" vs. "Him"

how many times do you think you say "I" in one day?

I was talking to my best friend earlier today and she has a teacher who is in the army and they e-mail eachother all the time. she was telling me that he has seemed really depressed lately. She didn't know how to respond to his last e-mail and so I had her read it to me a couple times and I realizthat not once in that e-mail did he say "I" or "me". I find that very impressive. He talked about them and we and us but never once I.

I can't help but think what courage that must take. To only ever think of others. How do you do that? How can you just forget yourself and only think about the people you love and the people who love you?

I love all of my friends and family and even just my acquaintances. but I can't think of one day that I only thought of them. He thinks of only these people. People he doesn't even know. He worries for them and fights for them. If only everyone in the world had that piece of mind.If only everyone cared. What would the world be like then? Peaceful? Safe? Scary? Unsafe? Happy?

How many times do you think you say "I" in one day?

I know that I say it a lot. I hope that doesn't make me selfish. I hope to be more like this man who can think of one else but the people he loves and some people he doesn't even know. I think we should all be more like him and remember to love everyone and care for them.

We have these amazing dresses that are super bright blue! They make you go "WOW! WHAT A COLOR!" It is supper Spectacular! I love it! We were all very beautiful not only in looks but in sound too. We blended and we did our four part harmony very well! I'm so enthusiastic about it if you couldn't all ready tell!

My New Goal

So my friends came over and stayed a lot later than was expected... actually 2 of them slept over! It was so much fun! I was glad to see my friends!
Now the topic of the day: Cooking
I have found that I love to cook, and bake. I find it very relaxing. My mom likes it a lot too, I think... because now that I cook, she doesn't have to!
Anyway, the other day I made chicken for dinner. IT WAS AMAZING!!! I am so proud of myself! Even my little brother who doesn't like anything, LOVED IT!!!! Isn't that cool! I thought it was!
My favorite part about cooking is that I can make things that I can eat, and that my family will love! I hope that sooner or later I will become one of the best chef's ever!
My New Goal:
To become better at cooking throughout the comming year!

I love my friends and I am so excited to see them! They should be here any minute and I am so giddy that I can't sit still! How pathetic is that! But I don't care if it's pathetic, I'm to siked to care!
I'll let you know how much fun we had after they leave!
