MY SUPPORTS

My supports are many. I need a house. I need money to maintain that house. I need my mom. I know, I know I am too old for that but I do need my mom. She is a constant, unconditional support for me. I need my kids. I need my job and the wonderful people that surround me at my work.They are oxygen to my soul. They are warm and kind. They create a rich environment, not just for the children, but for each other.  I need my car to transport me to my work, to deliver my children to school, to get groceries. I need my glasses because I could not work if I didn't have them. They support my reading and studying and working efforts.  I need my best friends. I need my kids,and I know I said that twice. All of these things I need, support me in my life. They provide something to me that create a a life that is easier and richer because I have these supports. If I didn't have a job I couldn't  feed my children or afford a car. If even one of the above supports were taken away the wheel wouldn't turn as smoothly. Because I am strong, I am sure I would learn to acclimate to something different. I would derive strength from another area and compensate. It would, however, create stress. I would not want to ask for help to cover the missing support. The support I chose to imagine being gone was my car.  If my car was not available I would not want to ask for a ride. My best friends would offer and help me. Due to my family size it would be extremely difficult to ask someone to assist in this support factor. I do take it for granted that I have the ability to have a car that supports my life choices. I am so grateful for all my supports.
