There will be an agreement in whatever variety of actions, so they be each honest and natural in their hour. – Ralph Waldo Emerson

What would you say to the person you were five years ago? What will you say to the person you’ll be in five years?

(Author: Corbett Barr)

I would tell the person I was five years ago not to give up on myself. That God has a plan for me. And that I am stronger and capable of way more than I think I am. And that whatever gigantic mess I have gotten myself down into can be gotten out of. I have an amazing support system who believes in me and I will come out okay in the end. "There is nothing to fear but fear itself."

To the person I'll be in five years? I hope I'm not who I am today. I hope I have grown and matured and been molded even more by God into the woman I am meant to be. And into the wife and mother and teacher I am meant to be. And that I need to not forget the passion, ideals and love I have now as a newlywed and a new teacher and as someone who hasn't been in the world of adulthood very long. And I better be working out and look good after having a baby! ;)

What about you guys?
