Lessons from Mom!

My Mom died a few years ago. She was 92 years old but still full of life.  She had been unable to stand or walk for a number of years, however she managed to get around in her motorized wheelchair and with very little help.  The things that truly brightened her days were her family, something funny and little animals.  She truly loved her children and grandchildren, unconditionally.  She got great pleasure from watching and laughing uncontrollably at episodes of Funniest Home Videos, Golden Girls or Red Skelton.  There was nothing better than to watch her pleasure from spending time with her "grandpups" or just watching a squirrel play on her balcony.

I learned so much from my Mom over my life, but I especially learned unconditional love, adapting to cirmustances with grace and the importance of looking for ways to be happy.

I encourage you to look for lessons in your life.  Expect to Win!
