A Place where I can truly be me |
I am told there are 3 specific types: I am Type B, which is more relaxed and non-competitive. I'm a very patient person. It takes a lot to get me stressed out or angry. I think this comes from having to wait on other people to help me in one way or the other; most of my life. For many years I was independent. My body was very strong and I never let anything stop me from doing from doing what I needed or wanted to do. But, eventually, I had to admit I needed more help doing stuff that I cared to admit. That wasn't easy for me. I will not soon forget the day My oldest son, Andrew, was watching me walk. I guess it looked like I was struggling because he came up behind me; picked me up carried me the rest of the way to the chair I was walking to, as tears fell down my face. He said, I didn't want you to hurt any more. I don't drive so I have to wait on other people to take me where I need or want to go. I'm not able to get around as easy as I used to now that I'm older My walking become much slower and I need to have someone with me near me to make sure I don't fall. When I was younger I used to run around on my canes without even thinking twice about it. I guess as I've gotten older my body is catching up the fact that I've had a lot surgery and it's trying to tell me to slow down. I miss being able to do things for myself. I can't imagine not being anything, but patient when your caretakers have to do almost everything for you. Thankfully, I've never been the competitive type either. I'm so thankful to be loved by my amazing children who are my caregivers as they live their own lives as well I dedicate this song to my children with all my love always~Your Mother You're Gonna Be Sung By: Reba McEntire [Embed For Use By Upgraded+] |
