greatfull

luckyone by luckyone Talking(June 2007) (rank 124th)

I am greatfull for ny life and what i have done it and what i have now.As a kid growing up i didn't have much but did have love of a family .We travel around alot as dad was in the serves , so every two  to three years we

pack up and move .Its was hard making new friends as i got older but still enjoyed moving and seeing new places .So i am greatfull for been able to see most of aussie , as many kids never got to see out of there home town unless they went on holidays .

I have four years over sea with my parsents ,as dad was over there and i fell sick and dad got me over there so they could take care of me .In that time i had  been to few places  (sinapore hongkong , thailand ,) which was great ,I work while over sea beeing a bus essort for  the kids of austrlian children going to school each day .I meet my husband there and got marriaged when we got back here .

I had   my daugther and three step children i was  happy  then i had my two boys  when my daugther was turnig12, Yes a big gap but over the moon to be bless with sons .Since then life hasn't been all that good to me  , my dad pasted and then my husband got sick and  my family move to melbourne .Now mum  had storke and has a brain tumor ,and i have parter from my husband of 22 years .

Yet you know what  ,I am greatfull for my life to have travel and to have my children a roof over my head  and food on the table  for my kids . i might be able to give the world but i can give them love and a happy home.So iam great full for what i have in my life .

What i trying to say spare a thought for the kids that might not have a family that care or the kids that go with out food as theres not enough money  to buy alot for for that week .

Re: greatfull
What a wonderful interesting life you have led... It is great how you have embraced all that it had to offer, instead of dwelling on the harder parts - making new friendships, and starting fresh etc.  I am sure that it has made you a more resilient, and empathetic person.

It is so refreshing to read positive advice, that we can all take on board.  Thanks for sharing this : )
