I was one semester away from graduating college with my masters degree and people were trying to convince me to drop out of school, that it would be better for me to stay at home. My mother, the most amazing woman I know, didn't need to say a word. She simply gave me this framed poem and I knew that I had to set a better example for my child. Since then, I have had a second child, was told by my husband that I was no longer loved or wanted(so I'm in the process of a divorce) and I have returned to school seeking my masters. Life might not always be perfect or easy and there will always be bumps in the road, but it is how we handle those unexpected moments that truly dictate our future. I want my children to know that no matter where their lives take them, they can accomplish anything. I was given this poem after I had my first daughter.

You are called for a sacred mission of helping special families. It is sacred and special mission you hold in your heart and hands. More Power To Your Cause. The First time I encountered the poem I had it framed. I brought it home to my native place, paid the equivalent of $10 to translate it in the our dialect and maintaining the poem format My dad when he saw it copied the native poem in his handwriting 13x and framed each copy in glass and gave one to each of all the 13 children. I was not married yet when I received that special gift. Many of my siblings have this gift hanging in their homes. Losing my copy is one my great regrets in ife. But a copy of this poem layed out in a nice print out was my first ever item I ordered in the internet in the early 1990's from Linda Vernon inc. I had the poem framed again and it now hanging in our dining hall where I pass my everyday. That is how significant this poem is to me and how it is part of our family history and tradition. My Dad thought it was one of the greeatest wisdom ever written about parenting and family life. I agree fully with my Dad completely. It holds many of the answers to my WHY. My business is about parenting as well this is one of the first contents I discuss in my foundational material. With this already in your blog I would like to invite you later to share about this either in my discussion forums or virtual classroom. Would that be okay with you?

All children should have the expectation of having a mother and a father in the home. Thats what makes us better than dogs. Dogs breed indescriminatly with any other dog they come in contact with while they are in heat. They are not intelligent creatures, and neither are humans who breed with several different people without being married. There are ways to keep from breeding if you just can't live without endless sex and in most cases birth control is free. DON"T BE A DOG . Be human and make intelligent decisions.

The reason we are in this world is to "BE" not "DO". Just by being who we are, we affect the world around us. Society is now dedicated to doing and we are told we just need to do more to be successful at whatever we are attempting to do. In reality, we only need BE in the moment and all else will manifest how it is meant to. This is something I keep reminding myself of when I feel the need to multitask. Your messages are inspiring, keep up the good work. The world needs your brand of acceptance and guidance. Love and Light Mary Grace www.TheWoundedChalice.com Ron,

I love that poem. If I could only "live it" more. It is truly a road map to raising a happy, healthy, well-adjusted child. Hey Ron,
