I...Oh, Ruth, you just made my morning wonderful. I'm off to see my mom, was feeling some dread, now because of you, I'm back to my better pair of glasses. Thank you for listening to me. I felt the same way about reading your blog. God bless your new day.Enchanted Oakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14815997287116818456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7574822672391090343.post-41688025534702119812009-09-08T06:15:46.513-07:002009-09-08T06:15:46.513-07:00Hi Chris,
You left me a lovely comment on my blog...Hi Chris,<br /><br />You left me a lovely comment on my blog, so I felt the desire to read through yours... and oh myy... I do believe I've found a kindred soul in you! I am humbled by your serenity, your outlook on life... the transformation you've undergone through recovery. It shows! <br /><br />My heart ached as I read of your mother. As my own mother was dying, earlier this year, and her mind was going - I had such similar feelings. That awful sense of... if only I'd know our last lucid conversation was going to be our last... how I would have treasured it, how much more I would have said to you. Even writing this, those feelings return. Ouch. Beautiful poem about your mom... absolutely beautiful...<br /><br />I also read through several other messages of yours, and I could just sense "who" you are as I read your words, Chris - funny how it comes through! How wonderful that you have been reunited with your daughter - what a blessing. She is a beauty, isn't she? And then to read of your dad... your marriage... it's been a joy just getting to know you through your writings.<br /><br />You have also managed to inspire me to write more. I haven't been inclined lately, as it has been a difficult year - but then again, as you've shown me, it often does help to write it out. <br /><br />So glad you came by my blog and left your name - I'll keep coming back, to see what you're writing.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />RuthARTIST658https://www.blogger.com/profile/07234304155365395001noreply@blogger.com
