And however dramatic a life may not be, there always is something to add, something to learn and something to be taken away.
The freedom of sight, the freedom of movement, the freedom of speech or the freedom of memories are all key elements in the makeup of an individual, but sometimes, a lot of times, it is personality that wins out!
Personality is character, and if nothing else, character is quite often times what makes the person who they are...when the the above attributes are taken away or weren't there to begin with..
Personality verses character; are they not the same thing....yes and no!!!
Personality, is the person and their ideals, where as character is what separates; unique qualities that no one else can posses in the same way!
Personality and character or quality traits; the gentleness of caring and sharing are first what comes to mind, as this is what I was taught from an early age. Caring for those who have taken something out of their lives to care for you...
Time, is something we can never get back, but the memories. oh the memories, the stories are what is passed down in hopes that they will live on and inspire future generations; for success and change!
Influence, who had make an impact....God, parents, family and the friends we keep....are all good places to start, because without those four elements where would we be?
NOWHERE!!!
If there was or there is no belief in the God of the heavens...
PARENTS, where would we be without our parent; biological or otherwise; when everything is falling apart, who do we turn to for help? They have given us guidance from an early age, have been our influence that would have a growing impact on our lives.
Our parent, whether here or passed, have and will continue to make an impact on our lives.....as the impact they have ingrained into our being says who we are because without them we wouldn't be!
FAMILY, however the makeup of our families, we couldn't do without....does it really matter if they aren't the most intelligent or pretty.....
What is the make up of my family; coming from grass roots living on a farm to the big city what was made; a nurse who married a salesman, but after 18 years of marriage and three children, the salesman passes away from throat cancer.....
Their son has a brain tumor at an early age which in his youth takes his sight, but for which would eventually take his life..
Their eldest daughter; born with scoliosis, develops an abscess in her ear which significantly reduces her ability to hear.
She marries a blind fellow and they move back to the country; their marriage lasts all of ten years and two children.
Their son, born with severe epilepsy, behavioral issues and intellectual disabilities
Their daughter, while born a healthy child is met with hit and run complications as a young child leaving her to learn the basics all over again.
FRIENDS; those friends we keep or keep us, say a lot of who we become or maybe not...
