We are just trying to find joy and hope one day at a time.

What do you love most about this girl? I am brave, kind, thoughtful.

P.S. I feel so alone right now and I love getting Snail mail. It is one of my favorite hobbies to write penpals.

What’s going on? I am writing letters to encourage and remind myself that I am important. I have nominated others for letters in the past. I have helped in so many different ways others over the years that I do and don't know unwarrantedly neglecting myself in the process. I feel stagnant with the desire to move forward with personal goals like weight loss for health reasons as I'm obese with pre-diabetes, yet I don't even though I could. Like in Matthew 22: 37-39 (NIV) "Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself." The category is mental health as I need to renew my thoughts to focus + love on God & myself and take on the Child of God identity that my creator (God) has given me.

What do you love most about this girl? I love to travel internationally and domestically with others. I would like my own car one day to plan a road trip as I have my driver's license. I am culturally sensitive, very patient, compassionate, merciful, and meek. My close loved ones continually tell me over the years to describe me.

P.S. Biblical Scriptures are Welcomed in the letters as enjoy reading the word of God (Bible) :)

Write to Vicki.

Age: 40-something
Requested by: Husband 
Location: United Kingdom
Topic: Self-confidence 

What’s going on? Vicki is so hardworking in her career but has had to really work to get to where she is. She is successful in her role but that is because she works 16 hours to everyone else's 8. She does this because she doesn't see the 'amazingness' of what she does and it always self doubting. Another thing is that is repeatedly in the receiving end of low level bullying (and sometimes not low level). I think this can sometimes be because she will always go the extra mile and others don't like this. It's not done in a smarmy way, she genuinely wants to help others. I want Vicki to see the wonderful person she is which might allow her to have the confidence to slow down and know she is good enough. She also needs to know more generally that she is such a wonderful person. Vicki is generally very self critical.

What do you love most about this girl? Vicki is creative, caring, kind and compassionate. She's also a lot of fun. She's the best friend you could ever wish for!

P.S. Never sure what to add in these boxes!  Vicki is such a powerful force of good in the world and she deserves to believe it in herself

What’s going on? Hey my name is Keirsten. I’m a senior in highschool and I have literally no friends. I want to become a volunteer for this program, but i also thought I would apply because it would really help me.

What do you love most about this girl? I love animals so much! I have two geckos, three cats, snails, shrimp, and fish. I want to be an elementary school teacher and I love helping kids. My favorite thing is hiking and being outside. My second is probably the zoo.

P.S. I have just been feeling really stuck and behind. Everyone my age has friends and plans and stuff and I just kinda go to school and come home. No one really dislikes me but they just don’t talk to me. It would just be nice to connect!

What’s going on? She went through so much. After almost dying at the premature birth of her son in 2012, the father of the child started to abuse her. Luckily she managed to escape but had to face a new reality as an immigrant single mom of a child that needs special care. I don't know how she found the strength to build her own company(a cafe), but she gave up because her son had to spend months in the hospital, because of his chronic sickness. He lost a lot of school time and the authorities completely misjudged her case and took her son away from her into a children's home where she had to fight for five years to get him out. A year ago she finally won that battle and they were reunited. So when the battle was over and even got written proof that her boy was taken away unlawfully, she developed a complex PTSD and was left completely alone raising her now teenage son. 

What do you love most about this girl? While going through all of this, she still kept her humor, still helped others in need, and didn't lose hope. Her and her son have an incredible bond. She is and always was a very engaged mother, friend, daughter and sister. Even in the worst situations she seems to see smth positive without minimizing the pain and hardship. I love how she turned her closest friends to their support system, so her son has her best friend and godfather as constant positive male figures in his life.

P.S. I hate to see such a loving and creative woman struggling with poverty and a severe PTSD due to what has been done to her and her son. She doesn't have the strength at the moment to start a legal case against what happened to them. She lost her ability to work, her strength to stand up against the authorities, her social status and her mental health. All I wish for her is not to pressure herself and take the needed time to rebuild herself. I really believe she will make a difference to other women in the future once she heals from her past 14 years. I hope to find for her words of comfort from a global sisterhood to strengthen her in that dark fight against PTSD from systemic violence.

Age: Teenager (16-20)

Topic: Mental Health 

What’s going on? I turned 20 on June 13th, and I need help with finding self-confidence, to help me know I’m not alone, and to find ways I can make myself feel better especially on my birthday when usually all of my friends are gone over the summer- for some reason the more I get older, it’s not been the same as when I was younger obviously, but I want to know how I can maybe feel less sad. Even though I know I’m loved and not alone, seeing most of my friends find someone to love and be in a relationship makes me feel like for me it will always be near impossible, especially if even though I thought I found someone good, it turns into too many situationships to count. I have lots of life ahead but always have felt more mature for my age and an old soul who just wants something genuine and real, with not a lot of guys to relate to my age and it sucks. It just feels like a lost cause already, and I love seeing others happy but always wonder if I’ll ever find my own in love without getting too caught up and blinded by who I hope someone is like, versus what they actually are like and not settling for less.

What do you love most about this girl? Some qualities I try to let shine more within myself, my kindness, compassion, generosity, empathy, loyalty, my sparkling energy and personality, always someone people can talk to, appreciating the small things in life, being able to know what i want to do in my future at this age, knowing my standards, my confidence i feel when with my friends and family, etc.

P.S. I can never tell if I’m just picky or have too high of standards, or if there hasn’t been anyone I’ve met that has met what I’ve always been looking for, but I just don’t know why dating in this generation or if it’s just Arizona that has been so challenging. It makes me feel like I’m doing something wrong even though it’s never been my fault, I just get worried my life won’t be what I’ve dreamed of as a little girl and it’s scary. Dating advice is appreciated, book recommendations, honestly open to anything for how long I’ve been working on myself now. What I always tell my friends and myself is that fact that I know I don’t need anyone, it just would be nice to have someone to do life with and I think that sentence makes a huge difference.
