They taught us also that by believing and keeping (at the very least) a mustard seed worth of faith we could come out of the fires, and folks would not even smell the smoke on us.
My parents had such loving and giving hearts, I thank them for passing those genes on to me. However, later in life, just short of turning fifty, I realized that an always loving and giving heart can sometimes be the thing that destroys it, both physically and mentally.
So to my readers, please know (in my opinion) that one of the hardest jobs in the world, is "Guarding Your Heart" and ONLY YOU will be the BEST person to fill that job with your highest level of satisfaction. It is, after all, your responsibility.
Single parents, It is also my opinion that you have the other hardest job.view less
