I was reminded this weekend of how fragile our lives are. A very good friend of mines mother passed away. As I talked to her, I could feel her pain. I could only imagine what it must really feel like...just the thought of losing my mother brought about an uneasiness that I don't want to have to experience but i know there may come a day I may have to cross that same road.I know losing anyone that you love and care about is not easy and we don't want them to leave us but we must know their in such a better place. But it made me think a lot about my own family...especially by mother & father. I know I am truly blessed to still have them both in my life.
We all should Appreciate Our Family...while we still can because we never know what tomorrow holds...Life is so short. Every single one of us has a priceless gift – our family. “Family” can refer to many people … your mother, your father, your children, your brothers and sisters, your aunts and uncles, plus perhaps other members of your extended family. Appreciate them all – there is no substitute in life for any of them. I know some of us are struggling with relationships within our families...me included. My relationship with my father hasn't be the best but I do love him. There are times in my life when I wished he would of been my Daddy...instead of the man that fathered me. But nevertheless the love I have for him will always be there. This is one aspect of my life I know I have to deal with and make amends...at least for my sake. I'm praying to God for guidance in this area in my life because I do want my relationship with my father to be better than what it is right now. The bond that I have with my mother is strong, unbreakable, unconditionally...and the best part of me. My Mother...My Rock, My Best Friend...My Life.. I know there are times when I don't tell her enough how much she's appreciated..without Her alot of times I know I wouldnt have made it. Just her encouraging me along the way has made me a better and stronger person. She Believed in me even when it seem like no one else did. I Thank God for her each and every day. My family means the world to me...I know there are times when we fuss and fight but at the the end of the day WE are Family No Matter What!!! And I love them all. There's people in our lives that we take for granted, and always plan to make time for tomorrow. Sometimes tomorrow doesn't come. Appreciate them today. So as you go through your day...don't forget to tell your family, friends, or anyone that you care about that you love them and that you appreciate them being in your life. Because tomorrow is not promised...Love Them While U Can. Peace & Blessings, Mari
