Here I am....facing life as it comes at me, wether I like it or not. I'm currently going through some major changes in my life. One in particular, was not decided by me so this makes the blow even harder. I feel as if someone just ran over me and just in case I wasn't dead already, reversed their car to make sure I was. Here's the catch.... I need to be alive more than ever. I have to continue living so that I can model for my kids how to pick yourself up when you have every excuse to lay there and give up. My body and spirit want to let go with the current but I know better than that. I must keep smiling even if behind that smile lies a voice that wants to scream at the world how unfair it is. The life that we dreamt about and built together is over. As I pick up the pieces and run to put them back together, I realize that they will never fit together again.
Even through this time in my life, I haven't lost hope.
Hope, that I will find the peace that I have been searching for all my life. Hope, that someday, I will accomplish all the dreams I have for myself. I make a choice everyday... to live my life to the best of my abilities. I consider myself lucky... I live for today and only today. Tomorrow will be a new day and I will embrace it for whatever it gives me.
Hope abides; therefore I abide.
Countless frustrations have not cowed me.
I am still alive, vibrant with life.
The black cloud will disappear,
The morning sun will appear once again
In all its supernal glory.
This was really well-written.
ReplyDeleteI think this is probably the best blog you've written so far, but you're on a roll lately, that could change!
I just want you to know that through all these hard times, you've been a great role model. There was never a time where you just gave up. You never stopped going about life as usual. You kept going and I can say that I absolutely have done that already.
There's so many times in life where we could just give up, but WE DON'T. How many people can say the same thing?
I'm glad that you guys tried to make this as painless as possible for us. You guys could've easily been dramatic and insane and messed us children up for life, but you know what? We'll be fine. We're all going to be fine.
Thanks for writing this because although I knew all of these things, I think I needed to hear in this way. I needed to hear the reparations.
Thanks for EVERYTHING that you do. I appreciate it soooo much. I love you!
