Give – Make a Life

I always believe life is more than just I, me, & myself. It is also more than just my family, my job, & my friends. Life is bigger than itself. When you love life, you’ll give. And when you give, you find that the world is bigger than itself.

You make a living by what you get, but you make a life by what you give. You don’t have to have a lot to give. Sometimes, those who have less, give more. Give. Pay it forward for someone today.

Chanced upon this blog while battling with my insomnia, and made me want to hug her now.

May my trio’s (hubby and my 2 girls) little things be my big things in life, always.

You see, my daughter Abby was recently diagnosed with a rare, genetic disease that is terminal. There is no cure or treatment. No cure. 100% terminal. Every child diagnosed with this disease will die. I have never felt so helpless. As mothers, it is our job to nurse our child’s boo-boos, dry their tears, teach them how to deal with sorrow and upsets, and give them hope…
