Trying to mould someone to suit your own intentions will eventually wear you right out.
Don’t be so set in your ways that you’re just as obstinate and pig-headed as the other guy. Compromise can set you free.

My Thoughts ... in a Blog
My world, surrounded by children.
I am a fifty something wife,mother, sister, grandmother and friend. I started blogging as a coping mechanism during my beautiful daughter's final journey. Vic was desperately ill for 10 years after a botched back operation. Dying is a lonely journey. Not only for the sick person but also for the family. As hard as we may try to avoid death, the truth is that we do a lousy job of it. Science and medicine will certainly postpone it, even staying healthy might seem to delay it, but the harsh reality is that death does not wait for you, it does not ask you, and it does not listen to you. Death ignores your feelings and wants; you do not matter to death…Death is the only certainty in life! We need to remember that our existence here is fragile, and we never have as much time with people as we think we do. If there is someone or someones out there that you love, don’t neglect that and don’t put off engaging with them because waits for no-one... Vic's Journey ended on 18 January 2013 at 10:35. She was the most courageous person in the world and has inspired thousands of people all over the world. Vic's two boys are monuments of her existence. She was an amazing mother, daughter, sister and friend. I will miss you today, tomorrow and forever my Angle Child.

Embracing my dorkiness, embarrassing my kid and blogging for the hell of it.
I'm a woman in my 40's and finally feeling that I know who I am and why I am, I would like to share the shadows from my life. Having got here fairly intact and along the way found the ability to take a step back and see things more clearly it is my hope that perhaps by blogging I may help others through their own dark places.
I might not be always right, but it's my point of view about stuff.

That’s certainly my favourite kind of compromise.

ERASE this after you read it: I think you meant to write “you” and not “your”…You wrote:”your right out” and didn’t you mean “you right out” ? Just trying to help…
