#5 Gratefulness
Aug. 29th, 2024 08:56 amAnother post about what I find in my life to be grateful about: I'm grateful to still have my parents in my life. I know quite a few who have lost a parent or both parents and it seems to leave a parament hole in ones heart. They have had both difficult lives in their own ways, but are very strong for that fact. Being born to older parents (they were in their early 40's) when they had me I had several moments in life that scared me, knowing I could lose them - I think this caused me to appreciate them more. They have had a number of health related issues, still do and it's a miracle they are able to do all they can still. I have learned a-lot from them and still continue to. They have had their ups and downs between each other and all their kids, grandkids, siblings, their own parents and other distant relatives. Life is a never ending roller coaster and I'm glad I still have them in my corner. I call them almost daily.
