Learning and growing a wee bit more
Today.. Whilst getting my morning wake up caffeine in GLoria Jeans.. anelderly woman sat down next to me.. and we started talking.. about her life experiences after 50 years of living and my aspirations for the future..
From her.. Anna is a mother of 2.. children at about my age.. what she has done to help give them a little push in the right direction.. Anna said "there is only three things i asked from my children.. be good.. follow your dreams and dont forget to love.. this 3 simple rules she set.. has proven to have gone a long way.. her son only 20 having already secured a job before entering uni at 42000 AUS.. her daughter.. due to her brother.. also got a job offer.. it is amazing to see Anna's face just light up at the thought of the childrens future security.. that is all she needs as a mother.. to know that her children always going to be OK as she dont know when she cant be there for them anymore.. THE UNCONDITIONAL LOVE OF A MOTHER!~
Likewise, Anna's parents and grandparents have been through a lot to get her here.. World war 1, Hitler's journey, World war II.. her mom was Jewish, during that time discrimination was all around, her parents had to give her away, paid a couple a lump sum.. in exchange for her bringing up and safety, her mum was lucky enough to have been given to a decent couple as he promised that he would not touch her (rape) Anna's father.. Nuremberg Laws were passed by the Nazis restricting citizenship to those of “German or related blood.. hence her dad was put in a box for 7 days.. given a small piece of bread and a tiny portion of water.. still having the Holocaust numbers printed on his wrist always reminding him of his past..
the most importent thing in life is to have love around you.. be it friends, family ,lovers or love for yourself.. what is the point of having everything.. but being alone? we often lose our way in life.. due to materialistic indulgence.. but if we have a strong sense of love.. the chances are we wont stray to far from the right path..
With love,
Loris
