I Choose to Cherish My Father's Spirit

Today is one of those love hate holidays for many people. I personal am saddened when this day arrives as I have all my life missed my Father. He passed away when I was three and then my life has been a living hell ever since. Yet, knowing I hold onto his Spirit allows me to stand firm and defeat that which has been thrown my direction .... abuse, rape, rejection, neglect, false accusations, no fatherly love. Through it all I always cherished Him and desired to follow His footsteps. On his behalf I served eight years active duty in the US Army, I chose to give birth to my Daughter and raise her in the best way that I could muster from becoming pregnant due to a gang rape by four masked men at gun point. Hard decisions they were. I vowed on His spirit that I would always strive to succeed and to love others. As I walk through each day I chose to cherish and hold onto my Father's Spirit. I have no memories of Him just a portrait of Him. His Spirit offers me Hope, Love, Joy, Peace, Understanding, a Heart for others. I love connecting with y Father through Spirit and Faith. Its well worth the devoted time and energy. Helps make my life journey that much easier to continue through. I live for him.

Happy Father's Day

Be Blessed
Always

Greetings ....

Hello Out There ... This evening I thought I would try something new. So here I am.

I am a single Mom living in WA State with my 15 year (Deaf) Old Daughter. Our family consist of just the two of us. Long story about the reasoning for this. I am delighted I have found this site so that I can start sharing with Hope that I will hear from you out there. The title of my Blog is what my intention is in being here. Not that I do not know myself ... Yet I have a Belief that there is much more that we can discover about our own being. I have lots to share and a heart to listen. I enjoy corresponding with others. So this is the perfect place. In time I will share more about Myself and my Daughter as there are many aspects to share. For this Friday evening I am not superstitious as today is Friday the 13th. We have a beautiful day here on the West coast. Earlier this week it felt like January as we could not get out of the lower 50's with the temperature. I need to scoot for now. Be Blessed as today comes to a close and awake with a smile and a joyful heart and soul and spirit

Always,
TenderSpirit
