I am quite confident you were a very good man. You had to be...look at your mother, a truly wonderfully giving, loving human being who loved you with all her heart. I would have considered it privilege to have known you.

Acceptance
And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find SOME fact of my life UNACCEPTABLE to me,and I can find no serenity until I accept that situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment.. Nothing, absolutely nothing happens in God's world by mistake.
Thank you Rusty for my BEST mistakes!
I see you every time I look into your Children eyes...
Don't Forget to watch over us...
Love Always & Forever
