Aware

Each year, I become more and more aware.

Aware of how quickly life passes by...

of how I don't want to waste time with trivial worries...

of how I don't want to forget a single memory with my girls...

of how God knew that the Hubs was the only one for me...

of how family and friends are so special.

When tragedy strikes, it is a sharp reminder of how EVERYTHING can change in an instant.

The guilt sets in.

What? You felt sorry for yourself today because the laundry was never-ending.

What? You felt sorry for yourself today because you had to clean up doggie messes three times.

What? You felt sorry for yourself today because you didn't speak to anyone over the age of 5.

Seriously?!?

I'm embarrassed.

I know and am very AWARE of the many blessings God has bestowed upon me and my family.

I just allow the world to take over sometimes.

Please join me in praying for those that are suffering as the result of a tragedy in their life.

I pray that God will carry them through,

and I know He will....

  1. Yes, He will, Jo, but I fail to adequately realize how blessed I am, too.

    I am so abundantly blessed, and you are a huge reason, my daughter!

    Love, Mom
