Being Thankful!!

I am thankful for so many things! Words cannot express my gratitude towards God for the things in life he has blessed me with. I am thankful for having five wonderful children who love me dearly. I would do anything for them.

I use to sit around and think about the what ifs with my family and trying to find out what is wrong with me to where my family does not want to spend time with me. I have realized that there is nothing wrong with me or my kids, but something is seriously wrong with them and I am not missing out but they are!!!! Children are a blessing no matter how you look at it!

I am determined to spend the rest of my life not complaining, not crying, not worrying about other people or the wrongs in my life but to be THANKFUL for everything, every person, every opportunity, every word, every situation, every right, every wrong, every day!!!!!!! What does not kill me will make me stronger and I am a STRONG woman who is endeavoring every day to make it with CHRIST for my children and myself! If others don't like it then I feel sorry for them!!!

I hope and pray that everyone has a very blessed Thanksgiving being thankful and grateful for everthing and everyone in your life because you don't know when it will disappear!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!!!

Moving Forward!

Moving Forward seems to be my theme for today. Sometimes I sit back and think about the things I use to do when I was younger with less kids, lol! I was kind of wild and partied all the time. I must say that now my kids keep me grounded. They keep me in a place that I need to be and not where I don't want to be. Thinking back to my past I would always say, " Man if I would have only done that differently, maybe things would have turned out better." I started to have regrets about things that I could not change. While I was looking behind me I was missing what was in front of me and what was lying ahead towards my future.

I don't want my life to be full of regrets! Yes, we all make mistake, but we learn from them and move on. Nothing that I should regret doing because everything that I have done or gone through has made me a better person today because of it. I am so thankful for everything and everyone who has played a part in my life. What ever doesn't kill me, makes me stronger! So now I look before me to see where I am headed, to make decisions that will better my future and keep me from looking back and thinking I made a mistake that I can't change! Children are truly a blessing and keep a person grounded if they let them. I am thankful for my kids and glad that they are in my life. Though challenges may come, they help me to get the strength I need to get through them because when I look forward, I see them, I see my future!

So to all who is reading this post: Live life with no regrets, learn from your mistakes, and continue to look forward to the path of journies that life will take you and that God will help you through!
