If I were to die today, here is one of the thoughts I would like my family to know about me.
1.
I
do not regret putting my entire life on hold to raise my 7 children. They have brought me so much joy. I revel in delight when I hear that they are
getting together to have fun and love spending time with each other. It pains me when I hear about little
squabbles between them. I hope they
always share a bond of brotherhood/sisterhood throughout eternity.
I keep a list of my thoughts in case I die. One day, I was feeling like it would be ok to die, but then realized that there are some of my "thoughts" that I wouldn't mind sharing. So I will just share this one today. Maybe on other days I will share others.
So this particular item is very dear to me. It is deeper than the few sentences I shared here. I kind of feel like I am in my children. I am part of them and their decisions. When they are having fun, I am having fun, even if I am not with them. If they are suffering, I am suffering, even if I am not with them. I think it must be the sealing power that does this. I imagine that Tammy feels the same way. While it is too hard to explain, I think other parents can understand.
