Default Life

A thought for today

Life is like a newborn baby struggling to come out of its mother's womb,
life is a struggle true enough, but after all the struggling you have done,

and after all the hell you have been through, there is success.
Life is nothing but a big struggle, but just keep the faith and focus on your goals.

Don't let life beat you or you will be walking around like zombies.
Keep on pushing, keep on trying, life can be whatever you make it to be.

But life can also be a bowl of cherries with whip cream and apple pie.
I say this again; life is what you make of it.

You can achieve or conquer anything it throws at you,
you can't quit or give up, you have got to keep on working,

look higher some way, some how you are going to make it.

Pauline, you are so right! and so beautifully said! Today is the best day of my life (so far) because my 17-year old son had a serious car accident last night and walked away completely unhurt. The other wonderful things about this event: he was alone in the car; he did not hit anyone else; he hit a tree; and the tree was not in anyone's private property, it was in the right-of-way; and the tree was not seriously damaged.

So, a bad event has become the reason for me to appreciate and celebrate the things we take for granted most days.

Rejoice!

Diane

Thanks, Heather. I am sure you know what a relief it is and was to see he escaped unscathed.

p.s., I tried to send you an email, using your contact info, but it bounced. I am not sure how to send email to UK.

Hi Diane,

I'm so glad your son is okay after the car accident. What a fright it must have been for him and then for you when you found out.

You are right...treasure each moment...we all have to learn that.

Take care...have a great day and a restful sleep tonight. Please tell your son I am so happy that he walked away unscathed.

Love,
Margie

Diane, I can imagine how relieved you are. My children are my biggest joy and I don't know how I would cope if something happened to one of them. Gail
