who i want to be

so back in april i did a post about becoming a new me (check it out here.) i made a goal to stop criticizing other people. since then i have been working really hard to be better.  i'm not perfect but i do feel like i have gotten closer to my goal.  so why am i posting again about this? well besides my constant effort to become a better, stronger, happier, prettier, more in shape version of myself, my best friend Michael wrote home this week and talked about his mission president who made everyone feel better about themselves when they are around him (check out the full really great/clever/hilarious/super spiritual letter here.) 
this started me thinking.... do i do that for people? i don't think that i do.... soooo what kalli do you need to change (those were my thoughts btw)

i tried to think of people that make me feel like that, and the ones that kept coming to my mind were sister missionaries, and the ladies that i work with here at work.  Sister Barber and Sister Anderson were probably my two favorite missionaires to ever come through the MTC they always had something nice to say to me.  not only that they talked to me like i was their best friend! Sister Estiva was another sister missionary that just made me feel like a princess, this sounds small but every time i would page her over the intercom system sister estiva would yell back "HI KALLI!" and for some reason it just made me feel really liked. 

so that's my goal now! i want to make other's feel better about themselves when they are around me i'm going to be more sincear, be a better listiner/rememberer, use names whenever possible, and just more consiously try to help those around me.
