dear anonymous -

i don't know who you are, but...

wait. of COURSE i don't know who you are. that's the POINT, right?

anyway.

i don't know who you are, but the comment you made on my blog yesterday was an inspiration. i have thought about it continually today.

"you can do it! enjoy the rewards" ...not sure why you left off the final punctuation. maybe you're a free spirit. punctuation:you::pants:hippies. am i right? tell me i'm right.

"you can do it! enjoy the rewards" ...HOW DO YOU KNOW? i said. i challenged it. how do YOU know. what if i cannot, what then. but soon, i grew inspired. of COURSE that's the sort of person i want to be - the sort of person who DOES things, takes ACTION, doesn't just lie inert in the stream of life while the waters of time wash over her.

"you can do it! enjoy the rewards" helped me get dressed and pack my workout bag. when i got to work and found i'd left a key accessory at home, "you can do it! enjoy the rewards" got me through the [admittedly ridiculous] panic at being improperly clothed for today's important meeting.

"you can do it! enjoy the rewards" got me off my duff at a quarter till eleven to head out for a run, then saw me through the entire workout, got me back to my desk on time, helped me compile meeting packets, and sailed me through the meeting.

"you can do it! enjoy the rewards" assisted me in selecting brown-sugar-cinnamon flavour poptarts from the vendo, as my reward, which i am enjoying now, with tea.

in conclusion, thanks, anonymous. you made a real and positive difference on my day.


yours most confidently -
