Straight From My Heart

MAY OUR FRIENDSHIP NEVER COME APART, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S STRAIGHT FROM MY HEART!

As I've aged, I've become kinder to myself, and less critical of myself. I've become my own BEST friend.

I have  asked GOD to give me a more 

COMPASSIONATE HEART 

A TONGUE TO SPEAK POSITIVE ABOUT OTHERS

I have the desire to STOP 
COMPLAINING
GOSSIPING
HAVING NEGATIVE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT OTHERS  

I have seen too many dear relatives and friends leave this world, too soon; before they understood the great freedom that comes with aging.

I know I am not PERFECT and I am sometimes forgetful. But there again, some of life is just as well forgotten. I eventually remember the important things. Sure, over the years, my heart has been broken. How can MY heart not break, when I have lose a loved one, or when my children suffers, or even when life is so full of Negative Energy. But, MY BROKEN HEART has given me STRENGTH, UNDERSTANDING, and  most of all

FAITH!!

I am so blessed to have lived long enough to have my hair turning gray, and to have my youthful laughs be forever etched into deep grooves on my face. So many have never laughed, and so many have died before their hair could turn silver.

As I have gotten older, it is easier for me to keep a POSITIVE ATTITUDE and to CARE LESS about what other people think of ME. I don't question myself anymore. I've even earned the right to be wrong. I like being older. It has set me free. I like the person I have become. I am not going to live forever, but while I am still here, I will not waste time lamenting what could have been, or worrying about what will be. My point is, I can not undo the past all I can do is live each day as it come and not worry about tomorrow.

MAY OUR FRIENDSHIP NEVER COME APART, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S STRAIGHT FROM MY HEART!
