Its quite amazing really....i wish i had your gift. For me the tradgedies and pain of life has been an eye opening experience not only how i see myself but how i see others.<br /><br />Now when people say...."you know when this or that happened - like a shock - i was cast into another dimention within a day, its crazy how you life can be altered within a day...." And i can say "flip ....i know what you are talking about!" whereas before i would have had no clue whatsoever.<br /><br />People have life altering tragedies hit them daily eg. loosing someone they love, loosing a business, a divorce, loosing a job and their whole world shifts in a day. Like the shock of the unexpected.<br /><br />I never knew that before now.<br /><br />I havent lost a child and I cannot imagine how horrible that must feel but i know the horror (or some of it) of having something shockingly unexpected happen.<br /><br />its like you plan you life for the next few years and then wham.....it all changes in a second and then you get those people who say: " So what is your five year plan?" and I say " Dude, more like im just surviving today ok....give me a break....ok i mean its not like that so much anymore....but i learn to LIVE FOR TODAY....cos thats what i can contain and handle if you know what i mean....and to find the joy in today. Cos today might be all i have.<br /><br />Im also not so afraid of death anymore...its like suffering has lost its sting for me...i was so afraid of it before....of suffering that is<br /><br />i cant say i welcome it now but I do not fear it so intensely or avoid it like the plaque....ive realised it cannot kill my spirit cos that is in Christ and it lives forever....so there!!!!mad.island.girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04915282913085802609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29991554.post-30061191623686784062010-02-03T14:10:45.935+02:002010-02-03T14:10:45.935+02:00it hit me again today what happened. i still can&#...it hit me again today what happened. i still can't believe it. and yet i also can't believe i didn't expect what happened.<br /><br />i'm not the same person i was before either. i can't even see where the differences are. i just know nothing is the same these days. <br /><br />i'm glad things are going well for you.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12523875341438470968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29991554.post-63832738278194671222010-02-03T12:25:06.190+02:002010-02-03T12:25:06.190+02:00(((Hugs)))(((Hugs)))Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29991554.post-70129141919070279902010-02-03T11:27:13.573+02:002010-02-03T11:27:13.573+02:00I so get the before/after distinction.

And I also can't remember the time when I was naive about pregnancy. I had a friend around the other day and we were talking about stillbirths and I mentioned that you have a natural delivery. She asked about that (assuming that you'd have c-section) and I explained. I remember the first time I read this, I was shocked. Now it's just normal and it seems odd to me that other people don't know these things. That they don't know a good scan is no guarantee, that passing 12 weeks is no guarantee, and a whole of other things that are just 'normal' to me now. <br /><br />Great work on the tight jeans. <br /><br />Maddie xMaddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15665878580598197034noreply@blogger.com
