Sending a Postcard

Dearest Reader,

I bet you thought I forgot about you and the Happiness Challenge.  I did not.  You are always in the back of my mind!  But now I bring you to the front.  I have been toying with thoughts of getting a job because my main obstacle is financial.  They are just thoughts that don't turn into action.  I don't know.  I can barely handle someone coming over for dinner- I don't think I can handle a new job without a ton of support.

 

Any way, I FINALLY did number 26- send someone you miss a postcard.  I sent it to my roommate from college.  I have been putting this one off for ages now because of so many excuses- it is almost unbelievable.

I miss her so much it hurts.  I would get a job if I thought I could save enough money to go visit her.  But then I would be filled with guilt for not visiting my parents.  But then I would argue with myself that this is my life.  I can decide who I want to visit.  And then I would argue with myself that technically my life belongs to God and I can't do whatever I want.  But then I wouldn't go any where because God doesn't actually tell me where to go.  And this cycle of madness continues.

Do you ever feel like this or am I the only one?

Yours Truly,
L.L.
