ENOUGH:
Recently, I overheard a mother and daughter in their last moments together at the airport. They had announced the departure. Standing near the security gate, they hugged, and the mother said, ‘I love you, and I pray you  enough.’

The daughter replied, ‘Mom, our life together has been more than enough. Your love is all I ever needed. I pray you enough, too, Mom.’

They kissed, and the daughter left. The mother walked over to the window where I was seated. Standing there, I could see she wanted and needed to cry. I tried not to intrude on her privacy, but she welcomed me in by asking, ‘Did you ever say good-bye to someone knowing it would be forever?’

Yes, I have,’ I replied. ‘Forgive me for asking, but why is this a forever good-bye?’

‘Well…I’m not as young as I once was, she lives so far away & has her own busy life.  I have some challenges ahead, and the reality is - her next trip back will be for my funeral,’ she said.

‘When you were saying good-bye, I heard you say, ‘I pray you enough.’ May I ask what that means?’

She began to smile. ‘That’s a prayer that has been handed down from other generations. My parents used to say it to everyone.’ She paused a moment and looked up as if trying to remember it in detail, and she smiled even more.. ‘When we said, ‘I pray you enough,’ we wanted the other person to have a life filled with just enough good things to sustain them.’  

Then, turning toward me, she shared the following as if she were reciting it from memory.

I pray you enough sun to keep your attitude bright no matter how gray the day may appear.

I pray you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more.

I pray you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting.

I pray you enough pain so that even the smallest of joys in life may appear bigger.

I pray you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.

I pray you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.

I pray you enough hellos to get you through the final good-bye.

Then, she began to cry, and walked away.

They say, it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but an entire life to forget them.

* Only if you pray, send this to the people you will never forget,  If you don’t send it to anyone, it may mean that you are in such a hurry that you have forgotten your friends.

TAKE TIME TO LIVE…..

To all my friends and loved ones,
I PRAY YOU ENOUGH…….

I have just released my newest kit, Family Pets into the store at Deco-Pages.

I had so much fun creating this kit. One of the things I try to do when I create a kit is include papers and elements that can be used for more than the theme I have chosen for the kit. There are several paper flowers and tied strings that you can use to create so many pages, included in this kit.

This is a scrapbook page example created with the Family Pets Digital Scrapbook kit. This is my cat Gus, who is waiting for me at the Rainbow Bridge. I sure do miss the little guy! If you have not read the Rainbow Bridge, do a Google Search, it really is a wonderful story.

As I mentioned before, I try to include elements and papers that will work for more than the theme of a kit that I design. This page was created with a cartoon that one of my friends sent to me in an email. I thought it was so funny that I just had to scrapbook it, and share it with all my friends… how many of us have been doing this wrong! LOL …. get it right ladies!
