SO WHY AM I DOING THIS?

I set out thinking that there would be many who would be interested in what I had to say in my blog. Little did I know that out in this big wonderful universe, either people don't give a hoot, or I have not been found yet. No matter, as it appears I am writing for myself at the present time.

Tonight, as I was helping my daughter with her homework, it made me realize even more how much stress is being placed on our teenagers. The core subjects, example - Math, I cannot even assist her, nor even understand it. Will she ever use it in her daily existence, probably not!

Let's move on to Thanksgiving ~ as we sat down for our evening meal, my son who is 19 stated he was pleased we had this tradition of giving thanks. Each of us had to share what we were thankful or grateful for. It was interesting to listen to my two teenagers share how they were grateful for one another~ I guess I did something right as a mom.

For me, being thankful that I am here at this time on planet earth, and to be aware of the many things that are happening at this time. If my awareness was not enhanced, I do not think I would want to keep my spot here on planet earth; however, by 'catching the light', I know how important my mission here is.

Until later, wishing you a joyous Thanksgiving!

Hello Carolyn

I have been following your blog since you started writing. I find it unique and different. As you wrote that no one gives a hoot may be that's because people are NOT ready to hear what you are saying or maybe all of this is above their level or understanding. Whatever is the case, I find your blog inspiring.

Keep up the good work.
