foundations

This evening my mom called.
I had a nice chat with her, and with my dad.

I love them both, and I miss them.
I'm reminded on a daily basis how blessed I am to have them.

They're good people.
They truly are.
Very good people.

They've taught me quiet, patient love.
Caring and helpfulness.
Generosity.
Selflessness.

All the things I need to do what God has called me to do.

I fail. Alllllll the time.
But I have a good foundation to fall back on.

Thank you, Lord, for giving me that foundation.
