Good Morning - a bit early, and I have been a bit "under the weather" the last few days. OK, I'm sick. Nothing serious. However, not bounding around full of energy, rather lethargic, somewhat grumpy, and finally not defiant. In other words, I'm allowing whatever is happening to happen, yet taking steps to move past it.
PATIENCE!!!! Yikes, that is a challenging word for me. Within the relationship of one, two or more, such as families or groups patience is number one, I believe. A lot roles into that one word. The concept of "Just Be," for example.
I have heard your questions, comments and needs more clearly for some, and with others the statements have been or questions are broad and large. Yet, keeping in "A Tidbit" form, I write what seems to happen or appear in front of me.
When healing from or accepting loss of any kind, from illness, from or within whatever place I find myself -- patience.
Advantages: It provides time to see more clearly, time to understand and take corrective action, time to nap, some days.
If on vacation in England for instance - I"m so flattered you are reading my blog, yet, as a suggestion -- patience. Move away from the computer and other electronic devices and have a TRUE vacation. What a wonderful experience you are having. One to share with another, once another is found.
"Fire Proof" - Patience. When giving a gift, expectations can derail the true meaning. And, there is nothing wrong with pink. Think of the process as a gift. Give it and let it go. Patience
Loss - Patience. Each person will process loss differently. Perhaps, look at the prior right and wrong blog posts. Also, take time to notice emotions from feelings. When you can, dive in to determine what truly is going on. What is the emotion, and then determine the feeling. There is a post somewhere about this. Patience, with yourself and the process of healing. Pain cannot be put on a blackboard and wiped away in one swipe. It will fade, which can take patience.
Patience - a gift to others and yourself. It does not mean that nothing is being accomplished. Patience can mean that you are taking time to observe the accomplishment.
OK - I'm off to the Dr. this morning, and patiently my day is beginning.
Squeeze joy --

Hi Susan---Nathan here from FL---Thank you for the reminder about patience as it's only my 5 yr old daughter and I now as my wife die about 6 months ago from cancer.
I am not use to being mommy and daddy all the time and sometimes it gets the best of me. However, I step back and realize that I must have been a brat to my mother from time to time and test her patience as well. When I think back to that I laugh knowing with God's guidance everything will be fine.
Love your photographers picture.
Also I'm interested hearing your perspective on relationships.
Keep up the outstanding writings

I loved him with all my heart. Ten yrs is a long time of being boy friend and girl friend.
Hope to hear something as to what is my next step.
I have been in tears
Thanks
