Woman in the Mirror

Yesterday I was slammed in the face with my past and was not ready for it...

I went with the Boys to Elijah James' party at McDonald's and another Mother that was there was a woman I had worked with before and not had such a great time with....and when I approached her with smiles and kind words she acted cold and icy and quite mean, and stuck her nose in the air as if I was non existent....now normally this would bug the hell out of me, throw me off and make the event non enjoyable, but although caught off guard at first by it all, I maintained normalcy and threw myself into the fun and found myself amongst beautiful children taking pictures....

A man she had been with at the time I knew her caused alot of issues for me and a best friend I had at the time, the best friend was a guy, Jayson's best man at our Wedding actually, and I had never done anything to her, but I guess someone else's lies when believed can have the affect the enemy is looking for and cause rifts like the one she had for me yesterday...

It is never nice to be lied about, or to be treated as if you have some disease either but I was not there for her, and what I noticed about myself, if that I have had growth in the sense that I was able to push it aside instead it becoming another 'why is she so mean and hurtful to me?' obsession....It was rather refreshing!

To me that is huge, I mean ya I am talking about it here, but it is not like I am in this oh my goodness I have to make her like me and ugh kind of thing, I was able to let it go and just be...

When I came home I uploaded about 180 pictures into my facebook albums LOL...

And then I saw Aphra's status....Myron's Mother had passed away yesterday, him and James are there right now for their visit, my heart goes out to them all big time, and I realized as Aphra were playing Wall Tag LOL....that life is so incredibly short, and I am thankful that I am no longer obsessing about small things, because that is just a waste of precious time, and a distraction of moments that are priceless...
