"Getting back to your life....."

An innocent comment made by a friend...."it's nice to see you getting back to your life....", a response to my share of what I was doing today…..taking a Ukulele class….a class that I began early last year, and while in the class received a text that my Mom had been rushed to St Jude’s Hospital….that day, my life was forever changed…..from the music and the text….. I watched my response today to the comment…..and then stopped my friend, for I had realized what I was in the midst of the past few days/weeks…..You see there is ….no going back….I’m not that person anymore….nor do I want to be…..and I realized how grateful I am, for whom I’ve become…. My struggle, is that age old question “who am I….”…..in this moment……not who was I…..”Who am I”…..what do I believe; whom do I associate; I’m in that wonderful place of illumination….creation….and knowing I am Loved…. Love you Mom…. Love you Dad… Thank you for the gifts of a lifetime…..for your love, for your forgiveness….for saying yes to being my Mom and Dad…. I am Blessed!!!
