6 Impossible things before Breakfast
“Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”
Thanks AJ…my beautiful ray of sunshine, and a true inspiration!
I have been inspired by people in my life. I’ve been disappointed in myself and others. Life is one finicky and seemingly impossible thing. Through prayer, faith, experiences, friends & family, lovers & heartbreak, I have lived a life, so far, book worthy! Since I have no desire to write a book…a blog will do!
In no real particular order…I would not be who I am today…without these 6 impossibley inspiring people surrounding me and fluttering in my heart and buzzing in my mind…a day to day.
- Momma Bear - Obviously with her…I would not be :) More importantly, when I didn’t want to go to school, when I didn’t think I could do something, she pushed me and pushed me to my limits. I have the most respect for her. She’s picked me up when I was down and has held my hand through life. There is not another human being on this Earth that will ever hold a candle to the person she is! She’ll never truly understand the impossible love I have for her. Love you Mom!!
- Erin - my sister, best friend, sometimes worst enemy, but ALWAYS the one that I know I can count on. She’s my little sister, but she’s a BIG girl! Amazing mother to my AMAZING nephew. How she does what she does, is impossible for me to understand. She has, without knowing, taught me unconditional love, patience & understanding. With the flip of a switch, she became my little sister, to a woman with a son…right before my eyes. She’s my hero! I love you Erin!!
- Fredrik - Oh where are the words to begin to describe how you have inspired my life, my world, and my heart. You are my soul mate. The reason my heart beats happy. Why butterflies still flutter after 2 years. Why I get shaky when I think about how we met and all the anniversaries we have! It’s from the little way you kiss my forehead, to the BIG WAY you hold me up. It’s the impossible feeling of over whelming love and affection you show me! You have shown me what TRUE LOVE really is and that it’s real…and that it lives in between the cuddles, the hugs, the laughs, the cries, and the EVERYTHING we are. I love you Honey Bunny!
- Paul - You are the definition of “Angels on Earth”! So many times when I was down and out and out again…you were there to hug and hold me and tell me it was going to be ok. There were times I thought I would not be able to get up off the ground…and you pushed me and “don’t be a girl” me! I have an impossible crazy amount of memories! Through the trials you endured…you still found the time and energy to teach me how to play pool….and ultimately kick my butt! With a smile on your face, fish sticks and mac n cheese, popcorn and South Park…you with out a question the most beautiful person I’ve ever met! I love you Paul!
- Stephen - A metaphorical Brother! It’s kind of a world wind of how we even became to know each other. I say “It’s a weird story” “You’d have to be there” kinda story. I believe with all my heart…that we were meant to be friends. To be there to understand instantly…when perhaps no one else would. To be the smart ass / random thoughts that we needed. You have been through more then one person should! To have lost both parents without notice or mention. To have surgery after surgery…to have love & lost without understanding or reasoning. You still see the impossible ability to keep going, moving, and taking each day at a time. You are a true inspiration for what keeping you head high, faith, belief, and strength. Love ya Brother Bear!
- Last…but NOT least…GOD. I have had at times, lack of faith. I didn’t understand how you could see me struggle, and be on my knees in defeat and still not answer me. I am blessed. You have blessed me. You may not answer my prayers directly. But you have blessed me with the most amazing people. All special in their own way. Impossible to replace. Without them, I would not be who I am. Thank you. Thank you for reminding me that when I felt I was alone, and you were not with me…It was really the Angels you sent to me. I love you GOD!
