Oswald Perez shared a letter in the
Magical Moments group 1 years, 1 months ago In The Last Year
Oswald PerezDear Unsealers,
This note is something that I’ve done for the last two years. As my friend Chari Pere posted about the things that she had done in the last year. The following is this years list.
In the last year…
I’ve moved on from a job of eight years and found a new, albeit temporary job
The trip to Italy happened after a two year delay
I took in the view from the roof garden of The Met
The Roger Waters concert at MSG happened after a two year delay
I’ve taken to reading and posting my poems on Instagram, Youtube, Swell & Tiktok
I had a mini Made To Do This reunion in person, meeting Rachel Jackson, Kristina Tickler Welsome & Jayati Vora for dinner
I awoke the abundant me
I took in the beauty of “The Beautiful Blue Danube” and clapped along to “The Radetzky March” during the Salute To Vienna concert .
I’ve completed Amy Kay’s “Poem A Day” challenge during NaPoWriMo
I got to see the musical “Company” during it’s Broadway run
I got to meet Victoria Williams during her stay in NYC
I challenged myself by taking Megan Falley’s “Poems That Don’t Suck” course
I’m hosting an open mic for writers and poets with disablities on 3/30
I have my next trip booked for the end of September, to Greece; with one more on the cards before the year ends.
I’m taking steps to become a more independent adult
I know this list doesn’t cover everything that’s happened in the last year.
I’m trying to move my life into a more positive direction
It doesn’t feel like things are happening, though
I won’t stop trying to make forward progress with my life.
This is such a unique way of remembering how your year is going. So far sounds like you’ve accomplished a lot. I myself know what it feels like to do so much yet feel like I haven’t done anything. At the end of the day progress is progress and that’s that. Send you good vibes for the rest of the year.

OMG, you’ve done quite a bit in one year, it’s amazing and it’s truly a miracle. I only wish I can do more traveling. I’m sure if I decide to write down all that I’ve done in one year, the list would probably be just as long, but without the traveling. I’m working on more exciting things, that would include more traveling. I want to do more, because I came so close to losing my life more than once; had cancer twice, so now I just want to live and do more with my life than I ever thought possible. Most of all, I want to travel more. I’m so glad you got to do a lot of those things, and how you’re truly working on becoming a more responsible adult, which I’m sure you’re not far from. And even though it may not seem to be moving the way or as fast as you want it, patience, you’re almost there. I know you’ll do it. You’re already on the right path.
