Wow. Enough cannot be said about loving like a tiger. I wish more people were so resolved. The rest of the resolutions are just icing.

Diid you find this at the subway stop? I always find the best stuff there. Two days ago I found a notebook full of personal affirmations a little like your list here.

If you don't know it already listen to Lost and Found especially the last bit called 'I found your letter' read by the guy who works for Found Magazine. You'll love it. At some point he talks about how his brother who finds lots of great bits finds such great stuff. His brother says one in every 5 finds is a gem, so it just means being persistent and curious and keeping your eyes open.

Best thing that could ever happen to M.
I hope B's restraining order is not a hindrance.
Loving like a tiger is hell on the bedclothes, believe me, I know.
