Not many people in this world know what it means to be content, to appreciate what is theirs, and love what truly belongs to them...I am not one of those. My life has had meaning because I understand what has been given to me and what has not.I love what is mine. And somehow, in my finite existence, I feel and understand the power of the Universe.I know, first hand that love is the only thing we keep and the only thing we leave behind...nothing else matters.My children are what fuel me. They are my heros. I want to be like them when I grow up, when I grow old...lol! I am the richer because I know the secret of giving love and though I may not have ever known the genuine love of a good man. I am wealthy because I did not take, I gave.What matters most to me is not what this world has to offer...it's quickly fading and is dead to me. What I see is something more splendid and beautiful and that is...that I've been given each day, each breath as a gift...each moment is my reward. I don't want to waste one moment, one breath or one day.I love what I have been given... To want what you can never have is sheer torment indeed... And to love what does not love you back is haunting misery.... So I will carry this torch and my anthem I will sing, that I have known what love does matter, it's the love I know I bring!Shalom
