By this point in my life, I have come to an understanding that life runs like sand through an hourglass. The older a person gets, the faster time seems to fly… slipping through our fingers like water, rushing from the mountains to the seas.
Looking back over a good many years of my lifetime, it seems only yesterday that I held my babies for the first time. Time has a funny way of working… sometimes it moves slow and sometimes it flies, as they say. The days of my own childhood seem almost as if they were a dream, or belong to someone else I might know.
Looking at my here and now, circumstances have required that I live only for the day I reside in currently. Self-preservation dictates that I focus on getting through the here and now, because we all know that tomorrow is no guarantee.
Looking forward always sends my hopes and dreams heavenward, where all my stuff is. But for you WordPress, I will rise to the occasion to answer your prompt…
If I were to describe my ideal week, I would envision my children finally calling or visiting to see if I am still well… it has been a year since I have seen my youngest, three since I spoke to my oldest, and my middle daughter avoids me with excuses. Having a relationship with any of my grandchildren is not available. Ideally, I wish to have some love from my children, and then I can call it good! I imagine seeing Jesus returning on the clouds this week, but it is only wishful thinking. He will return when and only when He has planned, and no amount of praying will change that time.
There, that’s all I got! I find it best to just plan for the here and now… tomorrow will get here when it gets here and I have things to do in the Today part. One of which is making your cupcakes and tea…
Here…
Have a spectacular Monday!

I’m sorry to read about your situation with your children. I understand being estranged from family and how much it hurts.🙏🏼

Its strange, I spent the last couple years in a sort of grieving place, finally realizing I was grieving over my own disappearance from their lives. God is so good, and is healing my heart… if it aint good, then it aint over yet! I think that is from a song

God is so good… I know He holds them in His hands and they remain under my umbrella of prayer and protection… I stand in the Gap!

I understand what you are undergoing through. We haven’t seen our daughter for more than a year. She travels all over the world, goes for holiday breaks. The moments of hope she brings through her video call once a day. But that doesn’t compensate for her absence… God bless her.
