Knowing when to let go

Today I was thinking what is life? Our mother gives us life when we are born. She carries us in her womb for 9 months keeping us warm and protected and sharing a bond with us like no one else. Then at the moment of birth we become a part of a bigger plan to be shared with the outside world. A world that we do not know and they do not know us. Life is a growing process from that time until we die. A baby learns to communicate their needs by crying when they are hungry or wet or ill. They are comforted by their mother and father and kept secured. Then right in front of our eyes they start walking and talking.

Then as parents we want what is best for them or do we? The one thing as a parent that I have found that makes being a parent the hardest is to know when to back off and let them be their selves. We as parents cuddle and catch them to keep them from falling. I know the hard part is let them fall and to know when to be there to pick them up.This to me has been the hardest part of life knowing when to let go.

I Know That I Am Getting Older

 I was talking with a friend of mine, we have been friends for at least 40 years. Somehow the conversation turned to we were getting old. I know I am getting older but I hate it when people remind me of that fact. I know my body has changed and I am developing the signs of getting older but I hate being remind of it. I have live my life by one of my blessed Mothers rules and that is your only as old as you want to think you are and the more you worry about getting old the faster it will happen to you. My body might have changed some and believe you I know it when I look into the mirror, but I am still that same young girl locked up into this old woman's body. I still enjoy life I just do things a little slower now. So when you see an older person show them respect and always be polite when they talk to you. After all they have the right to say what they think, because they have earn that right. They have live longer than you and learn about life. This to me is precious and is to be cherished because they are the greatest teachers of life.

Hangout - Sep 10, 2012 3:55:43 PM (playlist)

I have been a little depressed today the weather has changed and we went from 80 degrees to 60's . I do not understand how people can come into our country from another one and gain our freedoms that they did not have in their own. I do not understand it when they turn around and kill our American citizens for no good reason. I do not want to judge everyone that comes here because I know they are a lot of wonderful people that come to our country and America is the land of immigrants hell most of us came from one country or another. I am an American through and through how about you?

Hello today how are you doing? M y heart is sadden and breaking to think that they are young people in this world that are so evil and mean that they would hurt and kill small children and anyone else that would get in there way. The sad part about it is they have hurt their own selves more than they have the American people. One thing I can say in time of trouble or sorrow we as a country pull together.

I also want to extended my heart felt compassion for the people of West Texas. I really could not imagine what you have been through and are going through without your homes. Our state almost had a similar thing happen but it was a gas line and I am so thankful no one got hurt. I wish it had been the same for all of you. My heart felt love and prayers go out to all the victims and their families God Bless You all and God please Bless Our Beautiful Country the USA.
