My parents 50th anniversary is coming up and I am filled with awe and with a sense of sadness. I love them like they will be here forever, and yet there is those moments when the reality hits so hard, they won't and I don't know how I will deal with it!
My mother has an aneurism on her brain and needs to be careful, she is like a walking time bomb. I am becoming the expert in that topic also. I feel it is better to know everything about your enemy then to allow it to sneak up on you. She is in good spirits but she is also scared as she looks through a different viewpoint now, of what living and loving entails. I wonder how they look at each other and not cry, knowing that any day could be the last? I am in awe of the love that they share and that they feel for each other. I know a day will come when one of them is not here and on that day, I will lose another parent as well. I do not know if they could live without the other, or even maybe if they would want to. That speaks volumes as a testament to their love!
We are planning a party for our family for their anniversary. All the food that we enjoy, there will be excellent food, fantastic wine, good music and a whole hell of a lot of laughter and talking, it is what we do! I cannot wait to be there celebrating the moment when we all became family, those many years ago. I will video the whole evening and start a TV station so we can see it! I will post the link when it is done, ok?
Anyway, this has me thinking about my life and the things that I want in it and the people who I want in it! I don't want to settle for anything less than the love that my parents have. I can wait, I know it is out there, looking for me!
