Hey mom and dad. I had a wonderful Easter. I am glad that you attended services too. And enjoyed them.
Mom I need you to know that when I speak I often think of you and your challenges that you have faced in your life and draw strength from that.
The other day I heard from my other mom and the news was, well, news. I got to work the next day and Toni told about Pam and my heart sank a bit. So many things ran through this mind and I did not hesitate to call my sponsor or bring it up in a meeting.
I never had much use for God when I was growing up. Mom went to church but dad didn't. I never could see how He works in our lives. By talking to someone that used to work with dad I came to understand some on his beliefs and in fact meet people all the time that feel that way. There I sat in a meeting and was talking about my two mom's and what they face on a daily basis. Tears flowing not because of sorrow or guilt but because through you and mom my own faith gains strength. I am an alcoholic. Some may not believe that but they do not have to. I believe it and God knows it and for whatever reason I have this disease it certainly isn't because God gave it to me. My two mom's have to treat their diseases every day and face the challenges that disease places in front of them. God didn't give them these things but He did give them, like He gave me, the strength and courage to carry on. And so we do what we do and have faith regardless of what comes.
I believe my father is one of the most awesome men in the world and regardless of what he believes about God I know that God never abandoned anyone. People do that, not God. God put an angel in his life. Someone with a heart of gold that loves regardless of fault. Dad didn't do that God did.
I remebered one day when Debbie and I were together that I stood outside your kitchen window and watched you and dad at the kitchen sink and smiled. I thought at that time I had found it, I was wrong. Now I think to myself, that if I ever were to have someone to love like that how blessed I would be. I do not know today if I ever will have that kind of love and it really doesn't matter any more. What does matter is that the people I love with all my heart have been that blessed.
In the end it matters little what we kept, but more so what we gave away.
Love you both
Namaste Your son.... Glenn |
