birds chripping!

As I sit here in my back yard and listen to the birds chrip! I'm reminded of the simple pleasures in life! The freedom we all have the friends we have made along this journey! This leads up to something that I just realized today! Today was the last day I got to work in the same place as my friend! She means the world to me I love her dearly! I know its not the last time ill get to see her but its the last time in forever I get the time to spend with her at walgreens a place that formed our friendship 5 or 6 yrs ago! It has put us both thru a lot of stress a lot of heartache and a lot of back breaking pain! She will be retiring on next thursday! I'm on vacation that wk and not gonna be there for the final goodbyes! But she understands and knows that I'm thinking of her! It amazing what a little friendship can do to a person! I call her momma cause she was just like my mom telling me I needed to do this and that! But time goes by so fast that we better enjoy every minute we can with who we can! Thanks to her I have learned a lot of things I might not of learned! She's one of a kind but never to be replaced in my heart or mind! The birds and the sound and smells of summer make me want to quit my job and do what I truly love to do! Sit in a boat in the middle of a lake somewhere! But I have a house to keep and a duty to my country to do! So, as I sit here and pounder lifes treasures I want to thank you all for taking the time out to read! Sometimes I feel like I just need to tell the world how I feel! This world we live in today isn't anything like the world that I grew up in! The hate crimes where low, the abuse to children wasn't as bad! No computer, no cell phone, none of the finer things in life we enjoy so well! Well, the sun is setting so I need to get off here and maybe enjoy some iced southern sweet tea! So to everyone reading this let's get out and smell and hear the sounds of summer fresh cut grass,birds chriping, wind blowing! Good night all and good day to you too!

Something to think about..

Sometimes things happen for a reason. Like when your born its for a reason, God wanted you here on this earth to serve a purpose. No one knows what their purpose is until we see the message from God above. I wanted to take the time out right now and post a blog of things that have been traveling thru this brain of mine. I know your thinking oh my what might Christy say now. But anyway, Here it goes. Sometimes we get caught up in the little things in life and never stop to thank the ones that have made this life alittle better. We just seem to keep on going thru this world like no one else is standing there. Sunday is Mother's Day, a day to thank the women in your life that has made a difference. My mother means the world to me, she might not know it but she does.. Back in April of 2001 she lost her only best friend, her mother. She went on to heaven to be with GOD.. She is in a much better place now, but that doesn't mean we don't miss her more and more each day. So, on mothers day she has no one to thank for the time to still be here and for her up bringing.. She doesn't get that chance to say Mom, I love you! But, the ones like me that still have our mothers get to do that. Just sometimes life makes up go thru it so fast that we forget to say it when we need to say it. So someone created a day for everyone to say I love you.. Now if we did this everyday, do you think we would have to have a day like mothers day? No, but that is when you need to take the time out of your busy schedule and pick up the phone and say Hey, Mom you know what, I love you more and more each day. Thanks for being my friend and raising me right. With out you I don't know where i would be today. Maybe in jail or prison or even dead. But, your the one that keep me out of all that. thanks for being there for me. Now with all that said, i'm going to move on to another thought that has really being waying me down. This life we live in we come in counter with several different people. Some we call our friends some we just don't call them anything. I feel like that we need to stop from time to time and say thanks to the friends that we have had over these years and tell them how much we appreciate them.. Some of them might of forgotten you or never thought about you since High school or your first job. But that person did make a difference in you or you wouldn't even know there name right now. I know your all saying what is she talking about. We all know someone that we might of met that has made a difference in our life. Whether it be a coach, just someone on the street. Someone you have come in contact with has done something to make you proud or to make you wake up and smell the coffee.. Either way, we need to take a minute each week and thank them for making a difference. Just think of the times you might of made a difference in someones life and never knew it.. Ok, off to the last but not least thought.. If you dont do nuthing this weekend please do one thing for me. Smile, say thank you to someone one that has made a difference in your life, and Tell your mother you love her. Whether she be here or in heaven. Take a few mins to say Mom, I know your not here with me or if she is here pick up the phone and call her and say. Mom, just wanted to tell you that your the best mom in the world and you mean the world to me. I love you! Not everyone has the chance to do this. There are people out there that might not know their mother. But some woman in their life has made a difference. They need to tell her thanks. I have a stepmom that yea sometimes we don't see eye to eye but she has taught me alot of the years. If you have a stepmom tell her you love her to.. cause i know she has made a difference in your life too. She might of been a B doing it but look at you now...... So, I'm done talking. my fingers are about to bleed, not really but good night all and HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL THE MOTHERS READING THIS!!!!!!
