Recently I went through a class dealing with the topic of Crisis, Coping and Grieving.
Khornesone and I have had a long talk about things and it got me thinking.
There is much in my life that I have gone through to get where I am today.
Many lessons that I have learned and will still learn every day.
Life will always be part of the unknown factor in every persons, well, life.
I wish to say this though, after much reflection and discussion, I am grateful for the life that I have.
I am thankful for the people I have been blessed with knowing, both good and bad.
Each person has enriched my life in a way that they will never know, mostly because I cannot find the words to tell them.
Each person has left their mark upon my soul and my being, an imprint of themselves if you wish.
For all the good and the bad things that happen in my life, I live through it and I learn from it.
I choose to take away certain things and I choose to leave certain things behind, I choose.
Some of my choices have not been the greatest or wisest of things or even the best ones to make, but they are mine.
I do not claim to have untold wisdom or knowledge that must be passed onto my children.
There are lessons that I will give them the benefit of my experiences to help them through, as they are needed.
What they do with that knowledge is their choice alone to make.
I have reflected much on this topic and as I said before I am grateful for many things.
Most of all I am grateful for my children, my wonderful loving husband and my blessed friends.
I benefit from the friendships that I have and from the experiences you all give to me.
Thank you, I would not trade any of you for anything.
I cherish you and all that you bring into my life.
As a result of my character and understanding of self, I have been asked to consider making this class part of the specific classes that I teach.
Tomorrow I will give them my response to this request.
I wish to, again, thank my friends and my family for all that you are to me.
I believe in myself more so today then I have in the past and I know that I will make it through the tough times ahead in my life, because of you and your friendships and love.
Tomorrow I will add the Crisis, Coping and Grieving class to my selection of dedicated lessons for the next year.
For those reading this that do not understand a single thing that I have said, that is ok.
That just means that for now these words do not touch you in the way that they do my friends.
That means that maybe someday perhaps they will and know that then I will be grateful to you as well for the blessings you leave upon my soul.
