My nieces are both runners. They get a strong sense of accomplishment and resolve from this form of exercising. I notice runners are a somewhat different breed - like they have run out of this realm of existence and into a space beyond where they were. It serves to energize them and recalculate their ambitions. I commend them for their determination and healthy outlook! Run Forest Run!
Get Faith
Psalm 46 - "Be still and know that I am God." Self control - be still. I find it hard to do this, if I stop I sleep. There is a great song - "God is in Control" We believe God gives us free will - I chose to give my free will to God and trust in Him.
On this day
1993 - my husband and I were having marital problems and it was evident it was over. My beloved family gathered around us, even the in-laws. It was important to keep the kids in the family circle. Mom, my mother in law Pat, Andy and Alice and Lindsey all came over and spent the day BBQing and hanging out. Aaron's Mom Cathy brought him home to us too.
1804 - The United States' first secretary of the treasury, Alexander Hamilton, was killed by Vice President Aaron Burr in a duel. Now that's what I call term control.
Parenting
Divorce has much longer outreach then just the people that have given up on their marriage. The children and extended family are equally effected by the loss. Children, especially feel the guilt, grief and loss and very often act out on it. If you know someone going through this situation - reach out to them and their children for a day of normalacy.
Come Get These Memories - of the Sixties this book is at the editors desk right now.
One
day my teacher, Mr. Hanna, called me out to the hallway, grabbed me by the arms
and threw me into the lockers. He told
me to change my attitude or he would help change it for me. I knew he had done that with some of the
guys, but I think I got the honor of being the first girl to get that
treatment. Considering this was right
after my father died, maybe he thought he was doing me a favor, straightening
me out, I’ve never forgotten it, and I still don’t know if it hurt or
helped. I only remember being very mad
and expected my mother to do something about it. The principle Mrs. Raynor just looked down
her nose at me.
At home Mom said, “Well I think it is nice
he has taken an interest in your well-being after you lost your father. Maybe you should pay more attention in his
class.”
I
had to talk fast that night in bed to make sure my Joey didn’t have the guy
offed.
