I am thankful that in fifty two years of marriage, running errands, bill paying, car repairs, dirty dishes, and running the parent taxi service, my parents created a model of lifelong commitment for my sister and I.

Mis,

Hello world heres a some that Im singing, but no less happy that my parents didn;t give me all that, they made up for it in other ways ... I just had to look deeper, so very much deeper for the blessings in their upbringing...albeit it a short 15 years of actually pretending to care...

As I said, no bad feelings, come on get happy, Im over it and think everyone with a gripe should be too, at least by 30. It never surprises me how many of my clients are 60 and still moaning about what their parents did or didn;t do... hey get over it...find the blessings you did get and LET IT GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

Easier said than done for many huh?

Lilla ...

Glad to be back : here and there anyway, too many technical difficulties, internet drop outs and worm destroyers to mention, but slowly getting there and relinking... *sigh* its been a loooonnng month.

It is so good to see you amid your technical difficulties. I am always amazed at folks that hang on to grudges and hurt. You are so right about this:

Easier said than done for many huh?

I admire your pluckiness and your ability to make lemonade out of lemons.

This is beautiful. I haven't caught up on posts here yet, it's my first time back in... well, a while... but it's good to see the gratitude you feel for your parents. I'm sure they feel equally blessed.
