PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I turn 52 today. 13 years ago I got one of the best birthday presents. My premie daughter came home from the hospital after 56 days. This morning she wanted to watch Despicale Me 4 while it is thundering and storming outside because she couldn't sleep. 

Today I realize how blessed i am to wake up. My older sister is gone. My mom is gone. My dad is gone. I am the only one left out of the four that was in our family growing up.

I nearly died a week after my sister's funeral due to blood clots on my lungs, but God took care of me and got me to the hospital and emergency surgery.

Today I am supposed to go to lunch with a friend who i am praying doesn't pull the all about me thing again where I was stuck doing things he wanted to do and i cried for two days because I was triggered because it was like I was forced to go where he wanted to go and be where he wanted because he drove and I had no choice. I don't like being controlled like that. It is why normally I would rather be with my best friends who know my issues and don't try to control me. 

praying today will be a good day and he won't pull his self centered mess again. 

Today I turn 52 years old. I love, am in love. Love God. This year was a lot of loss. I had planned to be married by today, however hurricanes, health issues, finances. lifes goes on. Some things are worth the wait. Today will be a good day, In Jesus Name. Amen.
