In January, I completed Gala Darling’s first Mega Babe
Mission. The mission was to “Write a note to ten friends telling them what you
love about them.”
This mission brought out a lot. While it just says 10 friends, I kept it strictly to girls this time around.
I excitedly got my notebook out and started jotting down the
names of women in my life that I admire, respect, look up to, call my best
friend, have known for years, to months, to only have only hung out with a time
or two, and a couple none at all, but still hold a special place in my heart.
Before I knew it, I had written over 30 names! So I decided
to put a limit on myself and narrow it down to 30. Around 10 of them received
handwritten cards and the other 20 were sent personal Facebook messages.
Once I started sending out the Facebook messages, the
responses came flowing in. The feedback was tremendous with a couple girls
saying it had made their day. That felt cool.
It didn’t take much for me to feel glad that I actually took
the time one night to sit down and do this. It was a neat experience reflecting
and thinking about these ladies and what I love about them. To sift through
memories and how they have impacted my life.
And to think that I was able to know and tell 30 girls what
I love about them astounds me. What’s even crazier is that I could have kept
going! I am honored and thankful to have so many great women in my life doing
amazing things and who are sweet, caring, and hilarious.
I recommend this activity to anyone. Sometimes we get so
wrapped up in life and what’s happening. We rarely take the time to really
think about what we love about others. What they mean to us. How they have
impacted us. And sometimes, we don’t hear it enough. Some of them also replied
back with their own thoughts about me, which warmed my heart. It’s feel good
all around.
Are you ready to write some notes?
Sparkle&Shine.
