Christmas and Life

And so this is Christmas
In San Salvador - the fireworks
Are flying like never
Before

Here we are my husband
And I - as life has plans for us that
We do not see - for he almost left me
Caught between two worlds
As ill as he was - he always wanted
To spend Christmas out
Of the country so I said you
Got your wish - As Christmas has
Meaning -  whether we believe
Or not and
Life has plans for us
Whether we Love
Or not  - so let us Love this Christmas
Where ever Christmas
Finds us - in the mist of our plan
Or life's plan

As Christmas and Life
have plans for us and tonight I believe  in
San Salvador there will
Be fireworks

My husband went into kidney failure while on business. He was in the hospital for a week. Thank God for his good doctors. We will be flying back to the US tomorrow... bkm

  2. What's important is that he's there, and you're there, together - whether in San Salvador or anywhere else - knowing and holding on to what's important in life... love.

  14. First off Ι want to sаy tеггific blog!

    I had a quick question in which I'd like to ask if you don't
    mіnd. I wаs curiouѕ to fіnd out how you center yоurself and clear your mind prior to
    ωriting. I've had a difficult time clearing my mind in getting my thoughts out there. I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or hints? Thank you!
