I did not follow the footsteps of my two older siblings or my
ambitious and talented little brother. I say this from the heart
as I do believe that my life took a most wonderful turn in the
road at an early age.  To marriage and becoming a wife, and
a mother. We will celebrate Fifty Golden Years this July.

If I were asked, would I do the same thing again, without
hesitation my answer would be-ABSOLUTELY.

You see, we are not the only ones with plans for our lives. God
is the master of our destination. Some of our endeavors which
we incur (for whatever reason that we do) are one's own
accomplishments and in some cases Fringe benefits and
mistakes. As we all make mistakes they are life's lessons.

Schooling, learning, teaching, taking risks. Some folks have
a need to continue learning (through taking courses) to prove
their ability to themselves and maybe the world, maybe just
self-satisfaction. We will never know what is in the minds of
others.

I admire ambition and perserverance, providing it is both
constructive and good. Learning is something one never
ceases to do in every day of life, every living moment. We
are learning continually. I am proud to say that we have four
lovely daughters. Sometimes I do wonder what it have been
like to have a couple of sons as well? But our two wonderful
grandsons are equally as precious as well as our lovely
granddaughters. Everyone different in their own way but all
loved equally.

So courses, learning, laughing, loving. Life goes on. Appreciate
all that God has given you, as you never know when the road
will end.
