My daily environment factors that provide support are my faith in
God, my daily walk, and my family personal relationships. My faith in
God is the foundation of my life. There is no situation that I can not
overcome through my faith. My morning two miles walk gives me time to
reflect on my day and what changes that are needed to be made. This
walk is beneficial to my health. Next is my relationship with my
parents. My father passed in 1995 but is wisdom and words of guidance is
still with me today. My mother is the one opinion now that means the
most to me. Her advice and knowledge about life is golden. She can read
people and their intentions including mines and she speaks her mind when
she thinks that you are heading down the wrong path and hanging out
with the wrong people.
It would be very
difficult to exist without these supports. My faith is everything to me
and when I have strayed from my faith there have been bad things or
situations that have happen. Without my daily walk my health would not
be well and I would not be able to reflect on my up coming day and
relieve my stress. My mother's guidance is so important to me because
without it I probably would make bad decisions that I know that I should
not take and keep company with people who are out for their best
interest and not mines.
If these support
systems are not there my life would be in chaos. My faith is the corner
stone of my life and I live by the rules of the Bible and I am not
ashamed to say that I am a Christian even if it may cost me my life.
The daily walks give me the chance to reflect on what changes that I
need to make in my life including the people that I surround my self
with. My mother can read people well and their intentions and without
her advice I am sure that I would have been with people that I should
not have been with including family members and I would have put myself
in situations that I should not have put my self in.
Hi Larry,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your blog, it makes me think about my mother. My mother has always been my support and as you mentioned, their wisdom is unbelievable. I agree they have a second gift when it comes to knowing other people's character and yes, even ours. Also, I too, I am thankful for my faith in God, and I believe without faith, our support system is null.
Hi, Larry. I enjoyed reading your post. Our faith defines us and I was thrilled to see you are not ashamed to admit you are a man of God. I love that you go on daily walks to reflect and think about your life, your faith, and your responsibilities. It makes me want to do the same. Thanks for sharing.
