Need Reminding......

Tonight I talked to a friend who is having a very difficult time in her life. It made me so sad I wanted to cry for her. If nothing else to give her a hug. The average divorce rate in the US is about 50%. When you have a family with a child with a special need the percentage jump to as high as 80-90%.

Marriage is hard to begin with. Adding a child with some type of health condition makes it that much harder. Having lived this road for a while it is no joke. Some times it requires taking a step back and remembering the simple things.

10 Ways to Love

1. LISTEN - Without interruption
2. SPEAK - Without accusing
3. GIVE - Without sparing
4. PRAY - Without ceasing
5. ANSWER - Without arguing
6. SHARE - Without pretending
7. ENJOY - Without complaint
8. TRUST - Without wavering
9. FORGIVE - Without punishing
10. PROMISE - Without Forgetting

I am far from perfect and need reminding every once in while of these ten words so I thought I would share them. Hoping my friend sees them and finds peace in her difficult time.

TTFN~
