I was just looking through some emails, which led me to some forums, which led me to a profile of a guy in an online group I belon, and saw this link http://www.happylifesuggestions.com I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Today is a day for me to really take a deep breath and know that it is true, your life can change in an instant!( mentioned on that link) One year ago today I said good-bye to one of my best friends……………my mom. As I kissed her good-bye with her last breath I knew my life would be different. It’s hard to believe that a whole year has gone by, I feel like I just saw her last week, and she is on one of her many vacations she took.

Life does change, and we all have to learn to change with it. People that are in my life know that one month after my mom left to go “dancing with God” ( as she loves to dance ) one of my sister’s was diagnosed with stage 4 cervical cancer. We didn’t have time, weren’t given, didn’t take the time to grieve my mom’s passing, and now thrown back into survival mode as a family. It has been tough, and it seems we may lose my sister to that terrible cancer. I guess why I’m writing today is to say, that although I’ve lost a best friend, and now living through a health crisis again so soon, that I am blessed. I can always look around and see others that don’t have what I have. I may not have all the material things I want, and notice I said “want”, but I have a great family that is close, loving, and I great friends in my life. Some may ask how do you do it, how do you keep going, well to me, there isn’t a choice. You have to keep going, keep living, keep loving.

When I was driving back from seeing my mom one time I was listening to Earl Nightengales’ cd and heard, that you have to learn to lean into diversity, and not try to fight it. If you lean into it, it will be easier, and you will learn to make the changes necessary to go forward, but if you don’t, you will not be all you can, and want to be in life.

Yesterday we welcomed in a new baby girl Brooklyn Rose to our family. Some like me were hoping she might have waited until today to come, but guess today is mom’s day! I love you mom, and still hear your voice letting me know when I need to do something, or hear your words of praise. Your presence is so strong sometimes I feel that I could reach out and touch you. Thank you for all you gave me while you were here, and all that you continue to give while you are dancing with God.
