Every Day You Have A Choice


Every day we have a choice about how we are going to face life and all that it throws at us.

The last couple of days, I could have curled up into a ball and cried until there were no more tears to shed.

However, that's not who I am. And I know that's not how my wants me to live. He wants me to be strong and for his sister and I to continue to look out for each other.

Here's what I am choosing to do.

As a parent, my heart bleeds for you. I have endured much, but I can imagine nothing worse than what I fear you are going through now. I wish you strength.

all we know is that someone close to you made what you feel was a bad choice...so it is hard to know what to say to help....except...hand in there..it always gets better...in time..

Yours is not a REAL question. It's born of grief and angst and ANGER and a whole bunch of other stuff.

Call me later and we'll talk❗😎

If you feel like it. I'll be watching the women win gold. 😎❗❗❗

Choices I made today? 🤔

I put two sugars in my coffee ; normally I flip one and a half.

I went to the marina, but I sat on the bench under that huge willow tree. Usually, I'll lounge on the picnic table on the right. But the shade was crazy nice near that tree.

I usually head back home, and try and get some work done ; TODAY ... I gave least fucks.

Shall, should, might, could — oh, for fuck's sake.
I chose to live today as if
.. it might be my very, last, day.

And THAT'S why, I re-seasoned my cast iron skillet. (* at 460 for 45 minutes *). What a challenge, but it worked out fine.

Ya never know when y'all gotta go, but at least I'm leaving them with a piece of cast iron that fucking kicks ASS! 👍

What did I do today? 🤔
Fuck all

I lived.😎❗❗❗

My heart bleeds for you. As a parent you never stop worrying and you are in my prayers.
I cleaned out my kitchen cabinets today.

The Light is shinning and she is lonely and waiting in the darkness.

Everyday you wake up the most important thing to do in the morning is choose your attitude.

Choose a good one, it will make your day a little better for you and those around you.

Choose a bad one. Well then your day is probably not going to be good and you will probably ruin someone else's day too.

So which ever one you choose own it. There are many more good reasons to choose a good one than a bad one. Even when things aren't going well or seem dark and gloomy be that ray of sunshine for not only yourself but everyone you encounter.

I am not comfortable revealing the specifics, not even to my closest friend The situation will never get better. I will draw on my inner strength. Thank you for your kind thoughts.

You are mistaken. I am finding ways to cope and get through each day. I was interested in how others do so. Watching the Women's World Hockey Championships and Canada winning the gold medal was a welcomed distraction.

Thank you for your support. Life is full of choices. Some days, the choices are easier than others. Sounds like you kept yourself busy!

I am keeping my chin up and not focusing on all the “what if’s”. I don’t feel I can discuss the specifics with anyone, so it’s my daughter and I facing it together. A hug would be very therapeutic 😊. I appreciate the virtual one! Yes

It’s not easy for many to allow themselves to be so vulnerable. It was very difficult to hold it together when my son broke down on the phone. I hadn’t heard him cry 😢 since he was a little boy.
