Family Is What Truly Matters....
Sunset in my town...Another weekend blows by as quick as the wind. I had thought about all kinds of subjects and issues to blather about this weekend. Most of the time when I do write it's something I am pissed about or something I am passionate about. Today I am not in the mood for politics and current events. I've found myself in recent days be re-awakened to something much more important. That is family. With all of the grind of work and the fast paced and ever changing society in which we live. Family is a refuge and a daily oasis in our trek through the desert.
I have to stop and do a mind check now and then and realize what I am going through this thing called life for....It's for my family. It's so easy to get caught up in appointments, and schedule, and numbers, and acheiving goals. Then it hits you... It's all for the family. We spend more time with our co-workers daily than we do with our family. Realizing that we should make the best of every minute wherever we are. It only benefits us all to know why we do what we do. It's simple really.
I am not quite sure why, but I am going through some sort of life change.... You might say maybe I am just "growing up"? But I have essentially been on my own since I was seventeen. I've never not worked. It's something different now. It's something I can't explain.... Now? For some reason at 38, I am becoming more in tune and much more emotional and sentimental about my life and with those who have impacted it. Being cool or acting cool is not so important anymore. I am able to open up a bit more. It's weird, yet I am comfortable with it. It's great. I probably am not making any sense... but you know, I'm okay with that too...
I beleive it's my family, my "little indians" that have mellowed me and shown me a whole new perspective on life.. and man do they make it all worth it. With just a laugh or little sentence or a question? They can wipe away any troubles I have on my mind. They can with the slightest grin or action make me realize how sometimes I take things too seriously. They make me remember and know that life is so so good. How incredible that these two little people in my life, know more about life than I do right now, and they have no idea of the beauty of how they see life through their little eyes....
Little Americans Matter.....
