If only I could reach out to each one of you and give you a heartfelt hug. However, I look forward to the day our paths will really cross and I can save that hug for that day.Vannessa@Luxuriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13004543876391503184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688374863488035047.post-6749842573069754482011-05-16T17:50:28.269-07:002011-05-16T17:50:28.269-07:00Hi sweetie!

I wonder if I forgot to put in the letters to prevent spam or something? hmmm... I don't remember exactly what I said last week, but I do know that your post touched me very much. Such a touching story and a lesson hard learned. So sorry you had to lose your mom at such a young age, darling. Just want to reach out and hug you. xoxoSandy at Ooh La Frou Frouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00264245559729663977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688374863488035047.post-62388512016264072822011-05-12T07:14:03.902-07:002011-05-12T07:14:03.902-07:00Wow, Vanessa ... very powerful.

Perhaps we should visually imagine opening a present each morning, tearing off the paper of our day and looking inside the box ... what will our gift of a day look like?Sandy at Ooh La Frou Frouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00264245559729663977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688374863488035047.post-89742782829468440442011-05-11T15:58:50.857-07:002011-05-11T15:58:50.857-07:00Wow powerful yet simple words to live by!

Each verse struck a chord within me.<br /><br />I have learned that carrying a grudge is like drinking the poison expecting the other person to keel over. The only one your hurting is yourself.

I was horribly let down by the one person I thought would protect me for ever but a year later, I still love that person and am so grateful to walk through life with them.

Also, because you will lose someone who raised you, you need to learn to appreciate them as people and not as a parent: forgive the mistakes they made, but stand up for your right to be treated as an adult, too. We're all adults in the end.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688374863488035047.post-47804372189958810482011-05-09T10:57:32.347-07:002011-05-09T10:57:32.347-07:00Thanks Adrienne and Kori.Thanks Adrienne and Kori.Vannessa@Luxuriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13004543876391503184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688374863488035047.post-15265161649154439262011-05-09T08:58:49.993-07:002011-05-09T08:58:49.993-07:00What a great poem.
