I was thinking about how fast life can pass you by. It's like you wake up one day and you are grown and have children. Sometimes, I wonder where all that time went. I am thankful for still being alive and survived by all my siblings. I still wish I had've made better decisions in life. I somehow like thinking and actually understand that I have to take the good with the bad. I did not make it with my daughter's father. However, I can not be more grateful for the role he took, as a father. I also could not have asked for anyone better than the child that is composed of the two of us. She's silly, funny, smart and grateful. If I concentrate on what I could have done, I delete her. So I'm going to do my best to make her proud of me, while I can.

Dorthea,
ReplyDeleteI can relate to your post because I too have children with a man that I did not stay married to, and it is difficult sometimes to think about our relationship as a mistake, especially when we produced two beautiful children together. I do think that everything happens for a reason and what we think of as mistakes are life lessons. When I think about life choices, I like to tell myself that life is not over yet, and I still have so many good choices left to make. Thanks for sharing.
Dorthea and Leigh,
ReplyDeleteI definitely agree with the both of you. I am going through rough times right now myself. I look at my 7 month old daughter and she is my only motivation to continue with my studies. I always say at least I am alive and healthy, with a healthy baby. I too believe everything happens for a reason, even though sometimes we can not make sense of it.
