...Amen! Amen to that, Debra...I got goosebumps while reading your post. If that isn't one of the most profound lessons that one must learn, I don't know what is...
...I too found out the hard way, and ironically the same way that you did. It is a sad, heartbreaking wake-up call but it stops you in your tracks and makes you recategorize what is really important in life...
...Very well written Debra. This is a post everyone should read...
You are such a sweetheart. I am sorry that you understand, all too well, the lessons of this kind of wake-up-call, but I am very glad that it has not jaded you. You are absolutely right when you say that it makes you stop and rethink about what is really important in life.
Thank you so much for your very kind words. I so appreciate your visits!
I am the mother of four unique, enchanting daughters ages 19, 21, 23, and 25. I am the wife of my dearest friend for the past 28 years. We live in an area that is close to paradise in so many ways. Beach, mountains, sunshine, blue skies. We have quite a few furry and feathered family members: 1 dog, 6 cats, and 1 birds. I am mostly to blame for that because I have a huge heart when it comes to animals, although my daughters have been adding to the menagerie, lately.
I have been a stay-at-home mom for the past 25 years. I face new joys and new challenges with my daughters, as they continue to grow into young women. Parenting is a hard job and I will never take it for granted! My children are my life, and I continue to do my best for them, but I am in the process of learning more about myself. I would like to explore my love for writing, something that I buried long ago.
I have been living with a chronic pain illness that sometimes tries very hard to suck the life out of me. It has been labeled as Fibromyalgia, but there is much more to it. It will not win. I am still in charge here, but some days are very trying.

TJ,
You are such a sweetheart. I am sorry that you understand, all too well, the lessons of this kind of wake-up-call, but I am very glad that it has not jaded you. You are absolutely right when you say that it makes you stop and rethink about what is really important in life.
