We often look for excuses when things don’t go our way, shifting the blame onto others instead of taking responsibility for our own choices. But excuses only grow stronger the more we feed them. This same pattern shows up when it comes to doing what’s right—we stay silent, waiting for someone else to step forward, rather than holding ourselves accountable. “What’s your excuse now?” is a challenge to stop hiding behind hesitation and a sense of true comfort in our own skin.

Blessing Out Of A Tragedy!
I haven't been much of an uncle while my brother was living. I didn't stay in contact with my nieces or nephew. I don't have an excuse for it. After I met them at his memorial, they immediately treated me as if I have always been there for them. Forgiveness can put a major guilt trip on a person. Since then I decided that I will never let myself be separated from them anymore. It is imperative now that I stay in continuous contact with them and be as much of a part of their lives as I can. We talk or text several times a week and I enjoy it! Tonight, I realized just how blessed I was when I heard from both of them within 5 minutes of each other! I can't tell you how much that really meant to me. My brother passed and I feel like an Uncle! God is awesome!

Another First!
We all have firsts in our lives. First word, first steps, first kiss and first love. You get the message. We can go on and on even outside of our lives to historical moments, etc. My first Christmas without my mother was years ago, now it's without my brother. Yes, I'm sad but I'm not the only person who has a list of firsts. So, this Christmas, let's look back and cherish the moments with our loved ones or the people we loved and be grateful for them, Merry Christmas!
