Just thinking about my Life.. So BLESSED!!
Sure there are a couple things that I wished didn't happen or that may of happened differently - but OVER All, I would not CHANGE A THING!! I am so very BLESSED and LOVE the life I have and the Life I am going to Continue to have!!! So BLESSED!!
My Mom and Dad always provided for me - I always had a nice home to live in and Food on the table. Surrounded by LOVE and SUPPORT - When the Dog Died I was blessed with a Brother (Longtime family Joke) - He is a Fantastic Brother, Husband and Father - I am so very PROUD of him. My SIL Kathy is AWESOME and Trey well what can I Say there!! Except that guy is my HEART! LOL So BLESSED!!
I grew up with my Aunts and Uncles - and ALL My cousins - and now being taken care of by my Cousins Kids. I have friends that have never even met some of their families - but we are so involved and always surrounded by LOVE.. SO BLESSED!!
I have been Blessed with AWESOME Jobs thru the years - things that I truly LOVE and some of my Very Best Friends even today are because of those jobs.. We have share so much thru these 25 plus years!!! So BLESSED!!
My Photography - WOW I can capture memories FOREVER (some of my Family Gripe) but when it counts those photographs are our TREASURES!!! BUT, I have to say that Photography has given me something much more Valuable - it has given me some of the BESTEST Friends in the WORLD. We are in contact Daily - have been lucky enough to share ups and downs with many - Experienced the Miracle of BIRTH.. WE have gone on many trips - just being ourselves... And even sometimes they haven taken GOOD care of me.. LOL You all are in my HEART and I Love you all hope you know how much!! So BLESSED!!
I sit in my HOME - that as a single working woman - purchased Furnished and continues to pay for. Granted times haven't always been easy Money wise - and I have used CREDIT when I shouldn't of used it - continued to keep an excellent credit score. At least I have something and THINGS to show for what I have spent.. Not many can say that!! A lot of people these days are struggling with Finances - they cant pay bills and they may have NOTHING to show for that DEBT. I cant say that ... So BLESSED!!!!
I was never blessed with Children of my own - but I can not say that I don't know what it is like to be a Mother - my Friends have allowed me into the lives of their Children - I have been loved with all their hearts. I love being Miss Margie, Aunt Margie, MiMi, Auntie M - or anything else they choose to call me. I have been in the lives of so many children that are now Young Adults and I am so very PROUD of them.. So BLESSED!!
I have my Faith - my Love for GOD and his love for me - how can I ever go WRONG!!! So BLESSED!!
I will close with one of my Favorite Bible Verses:
PSALM 23
The Lord is my Shepherd...
THAT'S RELATIONSHIP!
I shall not want...
THAT'S SUPPLY!
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures...
THAT'S REST!
He leadeth me beside still waters...
THAT'S REFRESHMENT!
He restoreth my soul...
THAT'S HEALING!
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness...
THAT'S GUIDANCE!
For His name sake...
THAT'S PURPOSE!
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death...
THAT'S CHALLENGE!
I will fear no evil...
THAT'S ASSURANCE!
For thou art with me...
THAT'S FAITHFULNESS!
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me...
THAT'S SHELTER!
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies...
THAT'S HOPE!
Thou anointest my head with oil...
THAT'S CONSECRATION!
My cup runneth over...
THAT'S ABUNDANCE!
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life...
THAT'S BLESSING!
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord...
THAT'S SECURITY!
Forever...
THAT'S ETERNITY!
Thank you to my FRIENDS & FAMILY for LOVING Me for who I am - I will continue to LIVE with my HEART and be the VERY BEST FRIEND Possible... It is just WHO I AM!!
Lots of LOVE and HUGS, M
