It all started after I got home from work.
As usual, I would sit down beside my husband and watch the 6 o'clock news before cooking dinner. As we were watching the news, the Wednesday Child of the day was a 15 year old girl. Wednesday Child is a program formed to help foster children or orphans available for adoption.
There was silence in the room as the news focused more on the poor child only to be awaken to reality by my husband's voice....."so sad to know that you're not wanted anywhere," whispered my husband.
A deep sentimental conversation arose from this subject like.... what will happen to our precious daughter if an unfortunate incident happens to us (mom and dad). I was tearing up as my beloved husband discussed the options she will have if neither one of us is around to take care of her.
First, I do not have any close family here and so is my husband, or let's just say...there's no one that she can call if such thing occurs. The only people that will come for her rescue are people like Wednesday's Child. Not that I ever want such to ever happen but it is a possibility. (tearing more...)
The more I ponder on this, the heavier my heart grows. I cannot imagine life without either my little sweetheart or my darling husband.
Anyways, in the moment I began to realize how much I or any person can lose if I had become a self-centered woman. As of late, I have been busy with how I look and do things I've never done before like waxing.
Right there and then, I learned that to become idle and lost in a selfish moment can be a real obstruction to the relationship you or I have with my loved ones.
I went back to being myself, the person that cares about others more than myself. The person that loves to give more than to receive. This is who I am as a person.
And one thing I know for sure that if anyone ever really loves me other than my Jesus, it is my loving husband. He adores me no matter what......I just have to be me and be authentic.
