I had a rather unusual experience today a close friend was helping me with something important most people won't find it unusual for me it was, i have spent most of my life being completely self-sufficient, I didn't know what it's like to have someone help me like this it was quite foreign to me, so I started thinking about what I have and don't have, and how many people take for granted all the wonderful things they have, complaining that they don't have enough, I spent several years of my life with barely enough money to pay my bills I walked around in the winter with gigantic holes in my shoes because I couldn't afford to buy new shoes I was scared to ask for help so I felt completely alone, this one year was one of the roughest years of my life I lost my job, my parents moved away, and shortly after that my mom passed away, that event of losing my mother was a life-changing experience for me, I didn't really have very many close friends so losing my mother was very difficult with no one to act as a support group i struggled so much, i did however learn to appreciate every human life deeply, i regret not being able to share with my mother the intense gratitude that I have for all the loving things that she did for me my whole life, and 47 years I've had numerous friends numerous relationships, I've made some really good friends but only recently I found one person that cares enough and loves enough to equal the love that I felt from my mother, and I kind of feel like I've been given a second chance, to return the love that is given to me much like my mother did but Back then i was too young to understand how to give love back then, I only wish to thank God and the universe for bringing this wonderful person into my life I see things so differently now the sun shines brighter the trees look greener, smilin child's faces seem to be so much more, thank you for all the wonderful mothers in this incredible universe thank you for the mother's love for the child, thank you for taking a moment of your life to be here with me, thank you for letting me know I'm not alone. Thank you Peace
