These aren't the BEST pictures, but I think they get the point across!
Way back when I was 20something, this is what I used to look like, --
WOW!
I may of been thin and kinda cute,
but most people could of won an argument with me !
Let's just say I thought, if you are nice to people,
they will be nice back...
I guess I still believe that, but I also know that~ God is in control
-- and that really calms my racing heart!
So, Maybe at this point you are asking yourself why..
.why is she showing us funky pictures of the past?
Well, I thought that I could honor Memorial Day in some way
-- that would have meaning and emotion for me
-- and so that is why I took these pictures of old snapshots of me--
I miss looking like I used to, but I am thankful for the fullness of my life now--
I am very happy that I am less flighty and annoying --than I used to be--
I think back about what was important,
way back then and all I can think of is the music we listened to =
Depeche Mode, The Cure,Def Leppard, Queen,Van Halen,
Duran,Duran,Richard Marx,Randy Travis,
The Nylons, Prince,Elvis, The Kingston Trio,---
I could go on--but I hope you get the drift!
Anyway, the past is the past--
but what I love is the current,
I am more confident, willing to be a listener as apposed to a talker{well, sometimes...}
I like that even though I have had broken hearts and hurt feelings,
all of that has just helped to mold me into who I am now.
Mother,wife,sister,daughter,friend -- Good things with AGE!
Anyway, I just wanted to take a moment
and remember the past-- and appreciate the Present!
I hope that you enjoy a Happy Memorial Day ---
May God bless all those who have passed in Service to our Country!
