| 20/20 Hindsight
by nenebubbles at 4/16/2009 9:24:02 AM
As I look back at the events in my life that I thought were traumatic and horrible at the time, I now see the gifts attached or that followed.
Deaths of dear friends and family members that tore my heart, divorce, job loss, betrayal, and rejection caused many tears and sleepless nights. I could not see or hear much at the time. But now I realize that many good events followed after I learned more about myself, the value of life, and my respect to those values.
When I thought my life was ending over 20 years ago, I had no idea that I was to find memories sweet regarding my friends and family who died, old friends' loyalties, better job with opportunity to travel the world, my part in correcting my actions and attitudes. I also got the gift of myself whom I could accept with all my traits (good and bad) and learn how to work to improve my character.
So I am using that same vision today to look at today and be grateful.
A really great gift was discovering many of you over a year ago. Thanks for your discussions, teasing, laughter, and inspirations.
