Many people have said to me that they did not know all this was going on with Sadie. That my actions do not show it. That the words in this blog surprised them. Some were angry that I did not come to them for support. It could be for a couple different reasons. 1. I'm kind of a private person. 2. I don't get people involved with my drama in fear of judgement and sometimes the less people that know things, the better. 3. It's a defense mechanism that my subconscious is doing to protect me. I don't know why I choose not to share all this earlier, probably because it wasn't the appropriate time. Everything happens when it is supposed to.
I may look and act like everything is fine and dandy but it doesn't mean that I'm not crushed about my daughters health and I hate that she has to fight for everything that comes so easy to others; that man that cut you off on the highway, may have been rushing to the hospital to see a loved one that is dying; that woman that you thought was giving you a dirty look, could have just found out her husband is leaving her and was thinking about the situation; your neighbor that didn't wave back, was in his own world because his wife just found out she was dying of cancer; the woman that walked away from your newborn baby without awing and gushing all over them, is having a hard time conceiving not being rude; that woman that was just caught steeling and you are judging, is a single mom with a deadbeat sperm donor and was just trying to get food to feed her kids; that woman that complains of pain all the time, has a debilitating health issue that you can not see.
My point is that you just don't know what people are going threw. What is on the outside, is not always what is on the inside. Some people are better at hiding it then others, and some could actually learn to hide it a little more. We are who we are, except others, and try not to take things so personal. You just don't know how the other persons day, week, month, year, or life is going. Smile and try to do small kind acts daily. It really does make you feel good and makes a difference in others lives.
