Past Difficulties Future Success

Endurance is a blessing and particularly so for those who experienced and survived life's trials and tribulations. I did and I can't exactly say what has been the secret. I am now 69 years old but I can say I have had a satisfying life. I have lived through being poor in an abandoned mining camp and worked my way up getting a college degree. I have lived though 2 marriages deaths in the family my cancer heart break and pain. I'm a mother a stepmother a grandmother and a mother-in-law several times! Like many families today I have lived through the current recessions. Through it all I have not only survived I have thrived. It occurred to me that I've learned many life lessons that I can impart not only to my family but to younger generations. For this reason I want to share my story...the story of my family!
