Those things that are tough to accept

While having lunch with a friend from church I started to tell him about my past. I started to talk about my life growing up and my mom. I was doing okay until I started to share some of the current events and one thing I was sharing shook me up. I could feel tears welling up and I had to fight hard to keep from crying while I was talking about my mom.

I was glad I was able to share a few things and get a few things off my chest with someone from church that I know and who happens to be on staff at church. He didn't have any great earth shaking facts or discoveries to share with me but he did listen. Sometimes that is all one really needs, someone to listen.
