My mother, my role model. What an example she set ( actually both parents set for me). Residing with us were her parents ( my grandmother who suffered from a stroke and was bedridden) and her sister, a widow. My mother went to work every day, came home and prepared dinner, cleaned the kitchen after the meal, washed bed clothes daily for my grandmother and found time for family. We would go for a ride, shopping, or vacations. My mother loved to watch movies at night. This sometimes made it difficult for her to get up for work in the morning. But she did it and always with a smile. God bless you mom. You are in my thoughts and prayers daily. Please take care of Beaujaleigh as you did me.
REFLECTION FROM PSALM 23:
“The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.”

"But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
They will run and not grow weary,
They will walk and not be faint."
Isaiah 40:31.
"The Lord bless thee, and keep thee:
The Lord make His face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
The Lord lift up His countenance upon thee, and give thee peace."
Numbers 6:24-26.
“I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me. Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord when was it that we did these things for you?' And the king will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.’”
Matthew 25: 35-45.
She is not gone,
Who leaves us this great heritage of remembering joy.
She still lives in our hearts,
In the happiness we knew, in the dreams we shared.
She still breathes,
In the lingering fragrance, windblown, from her favourite flowers.
She still smiles in the moonlight’s silver,
And laughs in the sunlight’s sparking gold.
She still speaks in the echoes of the words we’ve heard again and again.
She still moves,
In the rhythm of waving grasses, in the dance of the sun.
She is not gone,
Her memory is warm in our hearts, comfort in our sorrow.
She is not apart from us, but part of us,
For love is eternal,
And those we love shall be with us throughout all eternity.
"It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect. He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; He enables me to stand on the heights."
Psalm 18:32-33.
‘Bring us, O Lord God, at our last awakening,
into the House and gate of Heaven,
to enter into that gate, and dwell in that House where there shall be
no darkness nor dazzling, but one equal light;
no noise nor silence, but one equal music;
no fears nor hopes, but one equal possession;
no ends nor beginnings, but one equal eternity;
in the habitation of thy glory and dominion,
world without end.
Amen.’
John Donne.
