so my brother's girlfriend has been in china on missions for a while now and apparently, her birthday is coming up soon. my brother gave me a card to sign and this is what i wrote with a giant smile on my face:
"happy birthday! and merry christmas in advance...we don't talk much...or at least, i don't talk much, but i hope to get to know you more. well, so far, i like your personality! haha, i don't know if david (my brother) tells you about me, but i feel as if i should explain my awkwardness. of course, i'm not going to do that...who writes about himself on someone else's birthday card? sigh...i knew i should have written a rough draft- i don't know how to end this well. i love you, sister! john"
yes. i am a dead man as soon as my brother proofreads. but, i've realized just how little i tell others of my love for them and just how little i've risked to stay comfortable. it's time to be a little more adventurous, don't you think?
