For Crying Out Loud

  FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!!!!“There’s got  to be more to life”, she cries in anguish.With her head in her hands she finally lets go… Tears plummet down her cheeks like streams of molten rock..“WHAT have I done SO bad in life to deserve this”?And so begins the eternal path to self discovery.                   My maternal instinct seemed to kick in at an early age..I remember when I was younger, I looked at the stars..It seemed like they were surrounding you,If you stared that hard and for long enough..You could almost touch one! The reminiscence of childhood crowds my mind..It’s like re-playing a movie of your life,The way it happens in movies…You close your eyes and flash back through the years.then pause where you see your heart get broken. Children get older, things get tougher..But you know what they say.When the going gets tough..You do what you have to do, as a mother..I have sacrificed, put my kids before ANYTHING…Verbally, I have stood my ground.. I DESERVE SOME RECOGNITION, don’t you think? Now I must clarify my train of thought here..For I am the last to complain that I sit at home,All day, everyday and do nothing..I don’t work (apparently)Government income pays the bills..But who keeps it going? Who holds it together?Who protects them from destructive behaviour?.Who is there to comfort with words of wisdom(Handed down through the generations)And who hides her tears at night when she cries?I do…. And no one is there to comfort me…. She lifts her head from her hands,Wipes her face, then takes a deep breath.“There IS more to life DAMN it!”Stop crying, build that bridge and GET OVER IT!So she did, until that time of the month came around again.
