~Korea was an eye opening experiance both in my personal life, but my spiritual life, and all things in between. I saw people's lives, that they work so hard to be poor at best to those that drove around in a BMW! I saw hardworking farmers who work to live. Then I of course saw the shopping districts as my previous blogs showed. I helped their economy just a touch! Hehe! It showed me there was no loud pounding music as I walked by a car, or spinning rims, just people living their lives as God intended. No status to keep up with I guess was the one thing that stuck with me the most! So I came home appreciating a clean airport restroom or a friendly "Morning" like I got this morning. The daycare staff missed my kids greatly and me, that gave me joy that we make a difference, at least I like to think! I want to leave this world better than when I entered it and intend on focusing on the few dear friends who I have (You know who you are and I love you!) and my family. My kids and I are prepping for Spring eventhough we cannot plant a thing until May at best but something to look forward to! I plan on dedicating more time to God who has shown me a lot, and all but thrown it in my face so now it is time to listen wouldn't you say? I tend not to get all preachy but God has been there through the thick, thin and even when I did not want him so now I need to raise my children to appreciate everything around them, be devoted to God, and to once again like I just said APPRECIATIVE! See a theme here? The Korea trip had me come home appreciating everything and everyone. This morning my dad had already left when the kids got up and they just looked at me and smiled and said "Mama?" "Mama?" touched my cheeks and kissed me...PRICELESS. Then they proceeded to ask for "Pop's and Grammy" My folks who so LOVINGLY changed their life for 2 weeks for me, how blessed I am. So folks as I close....Remember to treasure every minute, even my 8 dollar Safeway flowers I got myself to brighten my tired and jet lagged day...I intend on doing a lot more enjoying and A LOT less complaining and griping. I will once again go through some health stuff soon but nothing I cannot handle with my dear friends, family and my God by my side...
Many blessings to you all and I bid you a sweet good night!
