YOU HAVE COME A LONG WAY
Thinking back over my life when I was a child and growing up I had a good life and a good family.When at the age of 12 I lost my father to cancer, and It seemed as some years past the family was not as secure and seem to have drifted away to our own destinations.
I fell into a life that was not brought up to be but had no father figure to be there for me and guide me as we was as youngsters.
after felled marriages and letting my family down and myself it came to the day I grew up, and starting to get back the life I should have been living,,yes it took a lot of years and I am not sure if I have arrived yet but I can say to myself YOU HAVE COME A LONG WAY.
Was talking to someone today that was telling me there life story and made me reflecting back on my on.
Life is great, and just think of the time we lost.

I don't think I lost those times...I've learned and grew every moment...experienced many things that I never planned when I was young...I have a wonderful son and family, good friends in real life and virtual life...Life changes each day for me, I have no complaints...life is great!
Yes life can be full of ups and downs. I was very fortunate to have a good mother and father to raise me. They taught me many values. I have learned many things and am still learning. I believe life is a continous learning experience.
God bless you!
Yes it would make a big difference You have many good things in life too, just need to appreciate them and be happy
It's good to remember our past, what would the present and future be without the past?
You say It Like it Is..............

In the UK many black teens are off the rails because their dads take no responsibility, their are whites like that but it seems to run in black blood in the UK. Although my dad died in 95, there was no love between us but I had the discipline from him, and the unconditional love from my mum, that made me and my brothers who we are. Not perfect but , not bad either.
I am coming from a happy family, where I gain full of love and discipline (like Ian said) from entire family member as I am a youngest.
My dad passed away just 4 years ago while my mum now is getting better everyday from her illness after surgery.
I always get a big support from family when I was down and in bad situation.. they really make me strong and become an independent woman like today.
I have come a long way myself and I didn't like all the road I had to take in the past, but I'm loving the stretch I'm currently on.
Yes you are right we never know what life is going to throw at us,but yet I do wonder,,,,
I guess you can always look around and find someone worst off,but by GODS grace I can say you have come a long way.
Thank you
Hope your mother gets well soon,,thank you for your comment
Thank you

Time irrevocably runs,
As the engine quickly rushes,
Pedals of a brake aren't present, -
"You mature!" - Shout to you in a trace!
To return back nothing,
And ahead long way
Also it is necessary to choose correctly
Way without snow and a hail,
Without rains and frosts,
and without thoughts intolerable!!!
It is necessary not to be mistaken,
To become friends with a long journey,
Then not to be sorry,
For the way not to redden!!!
That was then simply,
Without doubts, questions -
As long as someone isn't trying to mess with me, all is fine.
