I finally finished watching the very last Oprah show, she is my role model. She said something that I live my life by, "You are responsible for YOUR life." There are way too many people that blame everyone else for their problems, they therefore get bitter and expect others to fix their problems. It is so much easier to blame others, but it is weak and generates no growth. I have built a lot of strength from this knowing, knowing that I am responsible for my life and the creator of my destiny. I spend every moment with my boys teaching the same thing because I don't want them wasting time pointing fingers, but rather take a look at themselves and see how they can change their own lives.
With that said, turns out I have created a lot of love around me, it is what I have been consciously choosing to allow into my life. Now that everything has calmed down since all the birthdays and all the other things I was dealing with I am able to focus on the love and comfort I have everyday. The neighbors kids are out of town and it has been so peaceful in my home and I have been able to spend a lot of quiet time with the boys and John. Everyday I get to cook a fabulous dinner (they will accept no less *spoilt*) while listening to Josh Groban or Taylor Swift with all the candles lit. I listen to the boys play and giggle together in the living room next to me and it keeps a smile on my face. John works until dinner, we eat together and talk. He does the dishes while I enjoy a hot bath, from the tub I hear him and the boys playing and laughing.
We end our evenings watching a movie in bed together (my favorite is How to Train Your Dragon). This is what life is to me. Live, Laugh, Love. Anyone can have a house, I am grateful to have a home.
Love lives here.
