Today is a day of pure reflection. Many days I have been consumed with more than I would have like to be. My plate is so full that I often don’t have room for dessert, which is okay because I need to cut back on some of life’s indulgence and decadent behavior.
Today I picked up my daughter’s cap and gown up as her graduation from high school is merely a few weeks away. Seriously, I am not prepared for any of this and I am praying that I have prepared her for this world. I have been trying to open her eyes more than my eyes were opened at her age. I am asking God for even more patience at this time in my life. I am reflecting on the time when she was so little and I held her hand everywhere we went, especially on that first day of kindergarten. That was about 13 years ago. So now, my message to her is to understand what fear is but to never operate from a place of fear. My message is to never allow distractions to manipulate your path in life. My message is to create a plan for your life, set your goals and dream all the biggest dreams your heart can imagine. The world is truly yours. To all the parents out there with kids graduating high school this year, may God Bless you and yours.
Peace
