It's amazing to me just how many friends I do have today. I have always been the one to say, Hey I've got your back. Never realizing just how many people have my back. Sometimes we are so focused on what we don't have that we loose sight of what we do have.
There are many of my friends going through rough times right now. Breakups, Mental stress, Physical pain and Family issues just to name a few. Living life on lives terms is not an easy place to be sometimes. As many of you know I have been going through a really hard time with my Mom. We have been estranged now for 5 years, her choice not mine. Recently I got word that she is slipping mentally and with us being estranged it makes it even harder for me to comprehend that I can't spend time with her or I should say that she doesn't want me in her life.
The friends that I have are very supportive. My wife Kathy and My aunt Shirley are two of my biggest supporters. In fact, without them "having my back" and supporting me through this there is no telling where I would be right now especially after finding out about my mother's condition. Life is full of twist and turns. One day everything is A Okay and the next minute things are chaotic. The one thing for all of us to remember is that things can change on a dime so be prepared to reach out and let people in. Sometimes that's all we have to survive Life on Lives Terms. Let someone Have Your Back and you Have Someone elses back. That's how we survive!
