The Decision

Daily writing prompt
Describe a decision you made in the past that helped you learn or grow.

The decision that helped me grow was deciding to be nothing like the people surrounding me when I grew up. I remember describing to my brother, who was all six or seven, why the Easter Bunny didn’t come to see us. At the time, I was a whopping eight or nine myself, wondering where in the F#$% are all the adults!! I can spend countless minutes or hours describing these events to you. Or I can tell you the simple facts. It was each of those moments and memories instilled in my little brain EXACTLY who and what I VOWED NEVER to be like. My children and those I LOVE would never WONDER or question if they were VALUED and LOVED!

I consciously chose to be present in the lives of those I loved! There would be no random drive-by from me!
