I wrote this in December of 2006. This was my New Year's Resolution for the year of 2007. Did I ever truly reach my goal? I don't think so, because if I would have, I think I'd remember who it was. I think I'd remember changing someone's life. Either way, this is what I wanted that year. I might not have achieved it, but it was admirable enough that I do want to remember it.
I
thought about this for a really long time... each year I never follow
through with my New Year's resolution... usually because it's something
stupid like, "I want to have the hottest body ever!!!" lol. But this
year I really thought about it, and I want to do something nice. I want
to change someone's life...
My New Year's resolution is to make a new friend. Not just some random
person I meet, but someone sent to me, like an Angel. I want to be there
for them when they need someone, whether as a shoulder to cry on, or
just someone to talk to--someone to listen. I want to support them in
their decisions, whether or not I agree with them. I want to ask them
how their day is going, and really listen to what they have to say. I
want to be their "rock"... the one thing in their life that they know
will always be there for them. I want them to know they can trust me, I
want to keep their secrets. I want to be the person they can open up to
with everything, and know that they are safe with me. I want to form a
bond... not a quick made, easy broken "you were my friend while you were
here" bond, but a true, strong, unending bond of friendship and love. I
want to change someone's life... by being the best friend I can be. I
want to be someone's guardian Angel.
