MY VACATIONS

••In Memories of Life

And just think, when was the last time Sharon (or you) took a vacation?

Well, I never took the vacation. Some things in life never seems right! I still hold a pair of air plane tickets from 1996, when my mother became ill. I was going to the Florida KEYS...  I never made it! Since, I passed up on Janice vacation and it seems there are reasons! Past Summer, I planned on carrying my son Dustin to Florida, "Disney World," but my niece Amber came down with cancer. The past, I visited a sister Debbie and her family twice in Virginia. I never made it to my brother David new house in North Carolina, but my wife and I visited him and his family twice in Washington D.C. I got to see a little history! One brother lives in prison and rest of the family lives around Charleston, South Carolina. Today, my brother and sister incomes have caused them to live outside our home town. Our mother lived with a wish and she never fulfilled it. She wanted to visit "Hawaii." During mom's last days, Terri told her, "Too bad you never took that, vacation!" Mom replied, where I'm going, "Hawaii" beauty will never touch it!

My Vacation: I visit a park around children. Sad Part: Since my mother died, I feel the pain in people (adult & child) hearts! I've helped, coach baseball with young (3-7yrs old) children. I feel the happiness or pain in children hearts! Yesterday, the head coach never showed up and the children come to play. Carter played on playground before practice, when she fell hitting her head. I held her until, the pain went away! Carter said, Joshua will not be coming to practice because the family problems at home. Justice came with his older sister who plays with the older boy's. Justice is in my sons (1st grade) class and he smiles at me "almost" everyday! Hanna is a pretty girl not sure if she belongs in the game. Kimberly will be adopted (6yrs old) after living at 8 foster homes from being a child, up to three years old. Brandon is full of life but he don't want to share. Brian is a special boy! His smile tells me all, about his heart from the love. There are more children stories I feel and much hurt. Truth: I have no control over their lives. I stay out people business! I try giving quality time for the children hearts. I feel their hearts calling and I lived as a child. One day, I will encounter a vacation because, my purpose will be all through!
