Gratitude revisited.

This writing will be short and of a completely different tone. I have decided that it is up to me to change the way I think and work. I will be spending  some time working on my mother's photo blog, at the same time I will be thinking of her and her charitable heart. I'm not saying that I will be able to snap out of this depression like flipping a switch, but I will be moving forward in the fog. Hopefully encountering fewer and fewer of the obstacles or if I do managing them better. I am determined that I will be a happy, secure , loving person.

My nightmares are still there, so are all the good things in my life, I have tons of loving family, not least of which is my mother. I am so blessed to still have her, it is time to enjoy that rather than bitching about what I don't have. I know many people that have lost their husband ,wife, mother and father. My own husband for one lost both his parents and a brother in a very short time. You would think I would have more appreciation.

I have not only beautiful grandkids, but intelligent and giving as well, I still have my sister and her husband, my niece and her children. All participate in my life on almost a daily basis, then of course there are my own children and their spouses. Really what is wrong with me.....

I am not forgetting you all, I have a good group of friends on here, that I can talk to and cry to, if a judgement is made I never hear it.

I appreciate each and every one of you, I am glad to have met you.<3

I am putting in a link to the blog I made of my mother's photos. Give it a look and pass it around if you like. http://ruthjonesvanderhoof.blogspot.com/


These are all the things I am grateful for.
