*What are you pessimistic about?
*Make a list of five ways you've changed in the last five years. What changes do you wish to make in the next five years?
*When's the last time you made a new friend?

I have had the opportunity in the last few months to become great friends with someone who I have admired for a long time. I guess I can't say that she it totally a new friend because she once worked for me when I was the manager at Movie Gallery, but this is the first time we have really had the chance to hang out together. Elena is a great person and I always knew from the first time that I met her that I would love to be friends with her. When I was the manager at Movie Gallery I always tried to make sure that I treated all of my employees fairly. I didn't want any of them to feel that I was "playing favorites" or something like that. So, while I wanted to become better friends with Elena then, I just didn't do it.
When I was pregnant with Matthias I happened to mention to Elena that I was interested in walking every week day after he was born. She said that she was also wanting to walk more and thought that she would do it more if she had a friend to walk with. So, we set it up and started walking together at the park four weeks after Matthias arrived. We have only missed a few days when doctors appointments, weather, sick kids, or jury duty have gotten in the way. I am really loving it.
Normally I hate exercise and although I knew that I needed it, I would find excuses to not do it like I should. I now look forward to our daily walks. I can honestly say that I feel that we have become great friends. That makes me really happy. It is nice to have a great friend. Thanks Elena!
