Everyone has to stand for something. I have a list of priorities, and obviously I am willing to share.
1. My children.
You start your life living for yourself, but then things change. You grow perfect people inside your own body, and one day they emerge. Then, though their journey of living for themselves begin, your journey of living for yourself ends. I have seen my children through everything, good time, and horrifying times. Once, I saved one of my children from death. I watch them grow, some from helpless lives that needed help to so much as breathe. There is no part of myself that I would choose over them. I would sacrifice my last breath so they they could have just one more. I don't just love these children, it's far beyond that.
2. My family.
At the end of every day, they are the people I can turn to. When I laugh, they laugh. When I cry, they cry. When I say jump, they say "Brooke get off the trampoline!" I don't really know what I would do if I didn't have my family. We go through everything as a team. Through thick and thin, we are together, even if we aren't in the same place. I'm a single parent, but without them I would parent alone. They make my sun shine, and my world far more enjoyable. I'm not saying my family is better than yours, I'm saying my family is the best!
3. Myself.
I do also have my own life. I will defend myself, and never again allow myself to be neglected. There was a time, when I didn't know anything about ME. I didn't have an hobbies or activities, I didn't know the kind of things I enjoyed. My entire self had been crumpled and thrown away, all on the vow of pleasing the unpleasable. My past was SO HARD, but I survived it, I left it behind, I found myself, and I will never become no one again.
Those are my priorities, as long as those 3 things are good, I know I'm doing well.
Mine are all about PEOPLE .. not everyone has those kinds of priorities. I, however, and a family girl. I love the people that love me.
I saw a meme, it said somethings along the lines of "I don't care about who doesn't like me, I'm too busy loving the people that love me." Generally, that is me pinned down and opened up. I love endlessly the people in this word that love me. When garbage happens, I try to focus more on them.
I hope everyone has a great day! May god shower you with his blessings.
