Mothers are amazing. They give more than they have, and then some.
I believe God created a learning opportunity when he gave women the ability to be mothers. He not only allowed us the opportunity to give love unconditionally, he enabled us to have a part in creating a person that has unlimited potential.
For those of you who do not have a biological mother that stood next to you, I am sure life gave you many opportunities to have others fill that space.
I had a wonderful role model for my mother, and I can only hope that I have done as well with my children. Life gives you a chance to be good to people every day.
Don’t limit your expression of love and caring to once a year. Be present. Be hopeful. Do whatever you can to help your children be all they can be. “Now, let’s get going!” xo Sally
We are busy, that is for sure. But, what are we doing during an average day?
Give yourself a little test at the end of today. See if you can remember what you did during the day. Then see if you can remember the people you spoke to, and what experiences you are able to remember the fastest.
Most times you will remember those experiences that made an impression on you. It may have been a “bad” impression or a “good” impression. Either way, because we are so “busy,” the main things that stand out at the day’s end are those experiences that made us sit up and take notice.
Make some “on purpose” moments happen today. When you ask someone how they are, take a few moments and actually find out what is going on with them. Give words of encouragement. Share some positive thoughts. Listen to what others are saying. Appreciate the time you have and what a blessing you can be to someone else. I guarantee you will remember those moments!
