Better Understanding

When facing challenges in my life, I push through.

I am not very good at admitting I need support.

When I was a teenager, I shared my problems with my dad. He listened, and his advice helped me through a traumatic time. He would remind me not to worry about things I couldn’t control. To believe in myself and not take all the blame.

I would like to say, as I have aged, it has been easier.

Probably not, but I have a better understanding of why. All I know is, whatever problems I face, I will trust in friendship and family.

I am a fifty something mother of two grown up children, and one beautiful grandchild. I have been married for nearly thirty-four years. My first book was published ten years ago. I wrote my book Sticks and Stones because of my experience of being bullied at school.

  4. It’s important to cultivate good friendships and relationships with family. They provide good nets for when we need the help that we later turn around and give back. Lovely response. 👏🏽
