Christmas and WINter Blues

This blog will jump all over this page ...we need to remember that not everybody is like we are and that it would be a boring world if we were all alike. Also, we are here on earth to be tried and tested and not everyone is going to like the outcome. But we need to remember when we weave the webs of lies and deceit it is continuous and ugly...NEVER ENDING....think about that never ending and remember it has started somewhere. The beginning of our month started out better than our month ended. we were in Kentucky for THanksgiving and I had to learn a lesson from my daughter that I need to appreciate my family because I wasn't with them and that I also need to realize that Danny does a lot for my family so I can give A VERY LITTLE FOR HIS.....hahahahaha
Then we were lucky to go to Stephen and Jennifer's wedding...absolutely beautiful and so well orcestrated. AWESOME is all I can really say about that and the weather was even awesomely bitter.
I am having a hard time with patience lately just ask my father...I don't want to get old and start not doing things that I have always been able to do. I also have been thinking alot about what we expect of others isn't always what we get and there is nothing we can do to MAKE someone do things OUR WAY. It is hard being a parent and wanting children to do what you want them to and then they don't and whose fault is that---their own because we come to earth to gain a body an gain our free agency and hopefully we make good decisions and choices.
I had good time helping my parents get ready for CHristmas eve...we use to spend the whole month of November cooking and getting ready and this year as in the past several we waited an prepared late...needless to say Father thought I was on my Mother and then he said that he would be looking down from Heaven on me later in my life so I better really think about things...Anyway then Kathryn and Madison came over to help and we talked about old times....old times sure seem better than the present. It is those dang growing pains again. Dad had surgery on his back the 14th of December so things were already going to be different. I hope that his works but he hasn't been doing what \he was suppose to already like driving my Mother to Indy because they won't ask anyone ahead of time to help them and then Mom said he took trash out the other day but the driving and sitting in a car worries me...He was dopey Christmas eve and supposedly took the wrong medicine.
I have thought alot lately about that I have a lot of things that I hope God is still going to give me time to work on things because I sure better be working to make things better...and try to get along better with others. I HOPE THAT DO NOT KEEP WANTING THINGS MY WAY BECAUSE RIGHT NOW I AM VERY SHORT ON PATIENCE.
I sure miss old times. The good old days I guess won't be back around because life changes so much. I just need to learn to make new memories that will last like the old ones.

Thoughts for the end of October by Kelly Kintner-Zehring

I don't know where to start because I have had so much on my mind and I thought I was going to explode this week...I just think that we should really take time to think in our lives. We need to take time to think about some of the couselling we have been given all of our lives and that is we reep what we sow...I had someone tell me that I had been lucky to make the decision about what I wanted to do about my life early on and then I was lucky that it fit me so well...but I was thinking about others around me and how I feel that they try to live through others or through their children and it isn't going to happen. What decisions we make is what we are going to had to reep and what we should want for ourselves or others (Especially our own children) is to make better for ourselves. I really think we live in a world or such self-pity that I can hardly breathe around some of these people. I don't know what they are thinking when they think that can't make better for themselves or they cannot pick their "OWN" chins up off the floor and move forward positively. We are all given equsl choices it is just what we choose to do with them that make us different people. My life hasn't always been easy and there are definitely spots that didn't measure up to what I thought they should have in my life. But I have had to pick myself UP and that has meant that I have had to really pick myfself up from places that I thought I wouldn't find myself.
I have truly been blessed this fall with a lot of things to happen in my life that have opened my eyes at the tender age of 44...and because of those things I will go on my way throught the rest of my life differently. Life is work and it isn't always fun. It isn't always fun to look for the good in each day but that is whtat we need to do. I was able to hear a talk by a man of God the beginning of the month and he said that we need to take time to write down the things each day where we saw God's hand working in our lives. Children need to know the trials we endure as well as where the Lord has carried us.
I know that some of my loved ones around me are in pain and I am learning to deal with that. I guess you never want to realize that you are going to grow older or that your family members will but I have to learn patiance. I have to learn that I will make the best of each day and I will hopefully be good to them. I love to help but by the same token I have learned in the last couple of years...NOT TO BE AN ENABLER. Some need to do some things for themselves so they don't become dispodant.
We are all in charge of own destiny and we are all able to make wrong and right choices that will guide us...choose wisely. Remember, those that have loved us and raised us have wanted only the best for us and now it is time for us to pull our heads out and make good choices; our lives are not over when the future doesn't look the way we want it and our lives cannot end just because we don't feel good for a day or week...get up and do something to make life worth living.
