Years have taken their toll, she thought to herself, as she took in a deep breath ..
Wasn't it only yesterday when she met her soulmate, her memory suddenly became fresh..
Glimpses and images
flash through her mind..
Not one left her wandering, challenged, or saddened..
Each thought and memory were one of a kind..
Oh sure, some days were dark with lessons she had learned the hard way..
Always, the lesson was needed and they carved a difficult road, a bridge, that lead to a bright new day..
Her children taught her
that she must rise to each daily challenges..
They taught her discipline, selflessness
and courage ..all of which she did not think
could hold securely on her scale of life and remain balanced..
Looking back and visualizing memories, and or encounters, she realized now, that each were meant as a learning stepping stones ..
Each one gave her insight of her life, now lived, that has truly shaken her inner core, and her now fragile aged bones..
