Three scoops of ENCOURAGEMENT
Smothered in THANKFULNESS
Sprinkled with SADNESS
With a TEAR on top
I had a birthday! You could not have known because it was in April and I did not create this blog until June, but I wanted to share this with you. K came to see me on this day.
I saw them, again - the tears. For days I clung to the memory of the anguish on her face, the tears streaming down her cheeks, her lips quivering, but mainly the confessions from her heart.
“I am miserable. I hate everything about my life. I am trapped and do not know how to get out.”
ENCOURAGED - Conviction is good. Contentment in her case is not!
THANKFUL - She desires to get out of the pit of addiction she is in.
SAD - She does not know how!
TEARS - My heart aches for her.
She brought me a beautiful card. It read: Kind and Reassuring, Steady, and Enduring, Deep and Wise and Knowing, Warm and Easygoing, Generous and Sharing, A Mother’s Way of Caring, Wishing a Wonderful Mother A Wonderful Birthday!
She also brought me a scented candle, BUT
I DO NOT THINK SHE INTENDED ON GIVING ME SO MUCH MORE!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME.
