My Life is my message. Mahatma Ghandi
As I
slip back into this world of blogging, I realized that I am a little
boring. I would love to have some great
exciting things happening to me daily, so I could “Wow” readers with my
exploits. However, I realized that being
exciting is costly. I looked into a trip
to skydive…I figured that would be very exciting and it is. It also cost a whole lot too. So does hot air ballooning and horseback
riding lessons, etc.
So I
guess until I hit the Mega-jackpot of something, then I will remain “boring” and
excite you with my wordsmith-ing or better yet my life. Although I am not jumping out of planes or
flying across the world to taste exotic foods, I am doing what all of us do
well. I am living my life.
Life is
not easy and in everything we do there should be a lesson. All of us learn something daily. From our experiences, we associate things
with encounter with lessons we have learned.
Some lessons are good, some not so.
I just love this quote, “Life’s challenges are not supposed to paralyze
you, they’re supposed to help you discover who you are.” Bernice Reagan Johnson Many of my challenges...lessons have helped me to be a better me.
Some
challenges, I like to call them lessons, make you pause for the cause…but I am
a survivor! What hasn’t killed me has
made me stronger! (Thanks Bey and Kelly Clarkston, oh yeah…&
Gloria Gaynor, she survived first.)
I do
believe life should be lived to the fullest but it is the small things that make
us who we are. We have people we love
and who love us; we have jobs, whether we love them or not, we get up and go
there daily to live; and we have an opportunity to improve our current
situations by becoming a better us. Our lives
are the messages we send.
If we
don’t like the message, we have the power to change it. We set the tone and can overcome any obstacle
because we believe we can. I am in
school because I want to change the course of my career. I attend church because I believe in a power
greater than me. I am a great mother. And so on and so on….
I have
so many facets to who I am. I realize something new about me every day. So this week, think about your life message…What
does it say and does it represent the true you.
Start creating your message and sending it out. It’s your life and you can say whatever you
want. Slip on your favorite shoes and Keep Walking...you have just started your journey.
MiVida! (My Life)

It's good to hear your 3 crumb-snatchers are motivating you...to pray and to have faith that everything and everyone will be OK. We've all got to go through something and I wish my grown children were ONLY as trying as yours!
