A Special Person

I’ve always struggled with self confidence.
Growing up under the influence of an overbearing father
left me struggling to appreciate my uniqueness
and my talents.
There are very few people in my life that have helped me
to see past the verbal abuse as lovingly as my
maternal grandfather.
My grandfather died decades ago
but his kind words and
warm thoughts are helping me even today.
Is there a special someone in your life?
If that person is still among the living,
then let them know how you feel.
The act of sharing those thoughts will
warm your heart and theirs.

Next Time

Every now and then
the reality
of
my
age
hits me.
It reminds me
of
all
the
next times
I
will
never
experience.
The next times
are
the
events
or
opportunities
I
passed
over
thinking
that
I
would
do
them
sometime
in
the
future.
This
moment
of
soul
searching
energizes my spirit
and
provides the encouragement
I
need
to make
each
day
count.
Don’t wait for next time,
DO
IT
NOW!
