I sighed and stared at a distraction --
the ceiling, while one
brought me tea, I confessed
to thoughts that ran
the gamut "and time
is limited." The girls gently
cooed, and tattooed
Alaska
with respect and an app-
reciation for the most valu-
able tears of pride.
The message was pithy and concise
just like me
a few months prior, before
a God-given resource that grew
together, into
heavy-duty materialism
provided for the family. God gives us
time to choose how
to waste it. He doesn't like
to seem so much more enlightened
than the rest of us but
He talked about respect
for nature, and was adamant about using
every part of any children with special needs.
As my mom had warned me years before,
I wasn't listening. I remembered the
Old Testament story of
"There's nothing alive in there."
