Lately many of my friends are becoming parents for the first time, this theme has been in my life for the last few years and before joining this exclusive club I was always wondering when I was going to be one of them. I didn't want to be just the godmother, I wanted to be the god.
I guess when you want something so much your body aches when you don't get it, and I know how much it hurts, from the inside out, you carry your own pain and your wanting, wondering IF you will succeed. Yes you doubt yourself and everything around you. If I think about it longer enough it does consume you. I was there.
So it is during this time to be grateful of what is currently in your life, what do you give thanks for?
Create a list of those things and people in your life today and feel the feelings of how they make you feel. Get in touch with your emotions and express them. Only today I cried and cried, combined emotions of seeing my little girl laugh with me, seeing the MJ Memorial on TV, and feeling for his family and what he gave the world. MJ gave so much to so many and we are all touched in some way or another. I was not immune, I too have my MJ story, the music lives on, as does his nature and his gift. His legacy.
Makes me think about how I want to be remembered, what will be my legacy.
Gratitude Time

Yeah, I totally agree with you! The MJ memorial was really moving and touching, especially the when they concluded the event with his daughter speaking out.
I feel that many people take things for granted too often. To me, I really see the world as such an amazing and beautiful place! If people just took away a few things from their lives, they'll totally think different. For example, if you drive your car everyday, try walking to the store and getting your necessities for just one day. You will totally appreciate the privilege to drive. Another good example is, people always complain about residing in our country, but those are not the ones that have stepped out of the country lately. Many people live their lives in a bubble.
Last night, my friend's neighbor was talking to us about how horrible the drivers are when you cross the border to go to Mexico. He was saying how people complain about the drivers here in the US, you should see the drivers over there!
I just feel that over time, at least where I'm brought up, people just have this veil covering their eyes and it grows gradually. Once they remove that veil, they'll see how beautiful and amazing life is and the PRESENT will be given back to them! (=
