Something 2 Think About

The French writer Montaigne said, "The most uncouth of our afflictions is to despise our being." Sometimes we let it slip by us to not allow our high standards to defeat us! For what spurs you to great heights can also paralyze you if you're not careful. For I myself have forgotten this and have become a victim of myself...an all too common thing that's done by the masses. Even when you know that whatever the situation, its not in your control. That it wasn't caused or created by you. With me, its the fact that I was born with an illness controlled by genetics. As a matter of fact, its not even my parents fault, even though no matter what is explained to them by all the doctors and what my words to them are...Parents Rule #3 states that as a parent they'll still take it upon themselves that it's THEIR FAULT when something like this affects a child. And something like that stays with you like a benign tumor. I know exactly how that feels eve though I'm a "Childless Mother" (that will be another post later on).
