STOP………..SMELL THE ROSES

Good evening. Saturday night blog. I don’t think it’s a big secret to anyone, how you feel when you lose someone. You wish you had said more, did more. If you think of something, do it. Don’t put it off. Time passes so quickly. Denny left us good memories. But, I am greedy, I wanted so much more. While you are wondering how many times should I smell that rose? The petals are falling. My dad was placed in a home as a baby. His real father walked away from a dying wife and 4 babies. His adopted family was older than him. So, I have a cousin down the street in her 90’s. The family asked if I would clean for her. I said yes. She lost her husband 4 years ago, a disease that took him quickly. She misses him so much. We had good conversation. I did the cleaning, I was also the one who walked away blessed. I got to talk with my 2nd cousin, her son and his wife. I found I was quite hungry for some conversation. She talked about her husband and I talked about Denny, no surprise there. She asked me questions about my walking , cleaning, throw in losing a husband, COVID last Fall and emergency surgery. The big question how on earth do you do it? The grace of God, it is sufficient. She agreed, yes, with God. Every 2 weeks, I see us having good conversations about family and life, as it comes. God and God alone is my source for keeping sane in an insane world. Every morning I put my hand in His. He walks and He talks with me and tells me, I am His. I am secure, no matter what I face. I can rise early everyday, I know He has me in the palm of His hand. You cannot be anymore secure than that. Everything that’s in and not in my life God has it, so I do not have to worry. He is the key to my future. Good night. God bless!❤️🤗🙏🏻🤗❤️

I will never grow tired of telling our story. God had a plan for us. The ending will be when I meet him in heaven. I miss you Denny Reed!💔❤️‍🩹Love you forever!❤️❤️
