I started my 30 Sundays of truth back on February 20, 2011. Here we are 11 months later, and I still haven’t finished them. Why? Partly because it takes advanced thinking to get these out. Partly because free time is virtually non-existent in my life anymore. But mostly because I have had a hard time thinking of what to write for the last 2 topics. But I figured I needed to get it wrapped up before the one year mark so here it goes.

Day 29 → Something you hope to change about yourself. And why.
There are so many things I’d like to change. How do I even begin to choose? And as much as I want to change certain things about myself, I also wish they could just be changed overnight. I mean, really, who wants to do all the hard work to really change a bad habit? If it were easy to change bad habits, none of us would have them, now would we? Having said that, this year I am making an effort to finish my to-do lists every single week. I am a big list maker. I love making lists for almost everything I do and then getting to cross things off of my lists. Sadly, I make list after list and usually spend more time making my lists than actually doing the things on my lists. So one thing I’d like to change about myself is that I want to start actually following through with the things I aspire to do. And I guess I also need to be more realistic about the things I put on my to-do lists. After all, it does me no good to put on my list that I’d like to mop all the floors on a Wednesday night, when I know I won’t get home until 6:00, have to throw something together for dinner, run to church for an activity with the youth, come home, spend time with my baby, and get to bed at a decent hour.
