I want to exhibit the patience I respect in others. I want 'to be” able to say less and listen more. I want 'to be” thankful and remind myself that being busy is not a negative because it means my life is full of opportunities. I want 'to be” more like my dogs.. in every aspect! I want 'to be” someone I AM proud of.
