Once we arrived at our destination I got news of my oldest son changing his plans about work. He is fresh out of high school. Admittedly, I suck at trying to guide my adult child in decisions. I come on too strong and emotional. It just frustrates us both.
Amid the turmoil, there were glimpses of tenderness. Glimpses I needed. The grand kids all riding a Ferris wheel and eating ice cream. My youngest son building the coolest fort for his nephews. These tender sweet moments make friction worthy of living through. Tonight, as I put my frustrations to sleep... I will be thinking of these sweet moments and holding on to them. Hoping tomorrow is a better day. Hoping I can let go. Live. And savor Joy.
