The holdiays came, and went. Me, oh, my it certainly is proving to be true........
"The older you get, the faster time flys"
I often wonder what we might do with the information passed down to us, if we actually believed it.
I love winter, because I especially love to see everything renewed, one doesn't have to wait for the New Year, but simply look outside when it snows at the branches holding onto the snow, as if it is embracing it, holding on to it.
Some of us are haunted by "holding on", some of us don't spend enough time,time in the past to fully appreciate the changes within ourselves.
Seasons are a reflection of time and change.
I believe that as we go through this life, we come in contact with people that are supposed to teach us, show us something about ourselves we might not ever have discovered if we hadn't met them. Some people help us to see things in a whole new light, others darken our space, and we have to find the strength from within to turn back on light. Others help us see things a little more clearer. Others cry with us, and laugh with us, they celebrate our joys, and feel our sorrows. For the most part we come to know who we are through other people.
To those I love I celebrated you this season, I celebrated wonderful friends that help me everyday to not forever harden my heart. I celebrate how far i've come. I celebrate that I recognize my blessings, and where they come from. I recognize and celebrate, a mind that allows me to learn and expand it's knowledge. I celebrate my untraditional family, and I celebrate that I kick butt as a single mom. I dont' dwell..... on what would life be like if.... I only have a hope and a promise of what someday will be like when we find that special someone that will add to our happiness and our home. I celebrate life and health and sight for which to see all that I love. I celebrate Me.
