Wish I knew HIS plan

So God has a plan for us, it may not be our plan, it may not be what we are hoping for, looking for or even dreaming of, but wouldn't it be nice if we knew what the plan was? Don't get me wrong, if God has a plan for me I sure intend to follow it, I just wish I knew where to start and what to follow, I'd stop chasing the things I think I want to do or need to be and jump right on board with what I am suppose to be doing. I think I pray for the right thing to come along, for some sign that I am heading in the right direction and sometimes it seems I still come up empty handed. Well, I guess I will keep praying, searching and looking for the right thing until it is the right thing. I will look for the smart choices in the stillness of my day, I will learn to be happy with what is before me each day. To have an Attitude of Gratitude as some say. To be grateful each morning for the 24 hours before me to do what it is that is needed of me, to go through each step of every day as if it is a blessing a stepping stone for what my talents are calling me to do, I will accept that I am who I am in this moment in time and be happy about my life and my health. I will continue to strive to better myself and hopefully good will happen along the way.

MOMS

I just want to start out by saying that I am learning how to be a mom because I had the best example that I could have had. She is the greatest match for me. Her contribution to my life and my success and helped shape me to be the adult that I have grown to be. She has taught me compassion, love, forgiveness and so much more. I am blessed with a Mother who is there for me no matter what, no matter how rude or mean I can be sometimes, no matter my mood; she continues to give me her constant unfailing and unconditional love. She will never stray nor walk away from me. She is my biggest fan. I am who I am because of her amazing contributions to my life.
I want to be that for my child. I want to be his biggest fan. I want to make decisions to raise him to not only be a great kid, but to be a loving, kind and respectful adult who can contribute to society and make his mark upon the world. I want to be the best role model, the greatest example and I want to challenge myself to put my best foot forward every day to accomplish this. I need to give 100% of myself EVERY DAY and show him that he is truly loved, that no matter what I am there for him and I will guide him through. As his greatest example, I hope that he becomes the best person he can by watching me love and support him.
For all you Mothers out there. I challenge you to be the best MOM you can be EVERY DAY, but know that even when we don't know the answers, make the right decisions and sometimes we screw up, just as we are our child's BIGGEST FAN, they in turn our OURS.
