Awesome Things

My good friend Joshua went out on a family visit today. He is not serving a life sentence so he is eligible to receive them. His mom, little sister, and 16-month-old son are visiting him.

Joshua talks about them all the time, with me. We were co-workers for some months and that brought us close. I am so happy for him right now. He'll get to be with his little boy for 72 hours straight. That's awesome.

And when he comes back, he'll find out he got accepted into TUMI. That's awesome too!

We have to focus on the awesome things— the things that mark our progress, make us strong, and keep us motivated.
