“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.”

Are all things that are easy in life too good to be true? In the form of rewards, perhaps. In the form of payment over something, be it a job or otherwise, maybe.
After all, as the saying goes, “There’s no such thing as a free lunch.”
LIFE IS FULL OF CONCLUSIONS AND ENDINGS. LIFE is best compared to a book. There are chapters, and then a final conclusion. We all must face much sadness or happiness depending on the conclusion. I feel the hardest thing we deal with are our losses of the people in our life we care about. We grieve, in one way or another, depending whether the conclusion is the end of a book or the end of a chapter.
When we deal with conclusions, like losing someone we love when they die, we hurt terribly. I think until we experience a deep, heartfelt family loss of someone like my sister who discovered she had cancer, we think somehow the pain has an ending. This sadly, is not true. We all grieve differently and sometimes there are conclusions that are “delayed”. We think someone is okay after they lose someone, because they wear a mask that hides their pain. However, when we lose a sister, or a grown daughter before we go, we must deal with a horrible loss and grieve in our own way.
For some reason, the deep rooted memories and knowing bond not always clear to others, losing my sister has been the greatest loss. There are times like my birthday last week, before I get a chance to really think, I have thoughts run through my mind thinking, because it is my birthday, Jenny will call today and sing. There is now a final conclusion. A conclusion is a final ending. It hurts always and the memories are never forgotten. If only I….did this or that, we would have spent more time together. We take time for granted. We forget that time also has a final conclusion for each of us.
We all die, and leave behind those we love. It simply put, broke my heart to see my sister slip away. I held out hope that she would keep living until the moment she died. I was right by her near her beautiful daughters and saw her final conclusion. There doesn’t seem to be a final conclusion for the pain yet. I know her daughters and myself and mother and her husband will hurt and miss her until the day our final conclusion arrives. Sometimes, it takes a loss like this to realize we all have an expiration date. That is why it is so important for us to enjoy the time we have. We need to be kind, always. Do our best to understand that all of us have different viewpoints and beliefs and even if we do NOT understand, respect that person’s point of view. We need to realize that someday for those we have any form of contact with, we will each have our final conclusion.
I see my mom is older, and am so sad that we moved twenty minutes from her. I would, yet don’t do it differently, and for this I blame myself. I seem to be low on energy, placing most of my time in my writing. Perhaps in some way I will touch another person out there and they will appreciate that no matter how much they try, they will deal with the losses and tragedies in life. I love her so much, and know her pain is even greater than mine losing a child. I wish that there was a way to change myself more than I do. You see, every day is different for me, and the “conclusion” of each day different. I do suffer with depression. It is hard to pull myself up and do what I should do. Regret however, is yet another daily wisdom word for another day.
To conclude this post I ask each of us to realize there will be a final conclusion for those we love as well as ourself. Treasure what time still offers. When a new chapter or grandchild is born, until the day we have our final conclusion. This way the conclusion we do know we will have will be a peaceful end. Thank you for reading.

FOR MOST QUESTIONS WE HAVE, THERE ARE ANSWERS. SOMETIMES, WE ASK QUESTIONS AND GET AN ANSWER THAT REALLY DOESN’T ADDRESS OUR ORIGINAL QUESTION. THIS POST WILL BE ABOUT GETTING THE RIGHT ANSWERS TO PARTICULAR QUESTIONS. IT WILL ALSO ADDRESS ACCEPTANCE WHEN THERE ISN’T AN ANSWER TO A QUESTION YOU HAVE AND HOW TO ACCEPT THIS PEACEFULLY. LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT THE DEFINITION OF AN ANSWER.
WEBSTER DEFINITION OF ANSWERS-A THING SAID, WRITTEN OR DONE TO DEAL WITH OR AS A REACTION TO A QUESTION, STATEMENT OR SITUATION. 2. A SOLUTION TO A PROBLEM OR DILEMMA.
DAILY WISDOM WORD DEFINITION-1. A RESPONSE TO A QUESTION THAT MAY OR MAY NOT ADDRESS THE ACTUAL QUESTION ASKED. 2. SOMETHING WE SEARCH FOR WHEN WE HAVE A QUESTION THAT WE DON’T ALWAYS FIND.
FOR MYSELF, IT IS IRRITATING WHEN I ASK SOMEONE A QUESTION, AND THEY DON’T ADDRESS IT DIRECTLY WITH AN ANSWER. IT HURTS ME ALSO, THAT SOME THINGS IN LIFE WE HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT, WE DON’T ALWAYS GET AN ANSWER FOR.
SOMETIMES, I FEEL WE MIGHT NOT GET A DIRECT ANSWER TO A QUESTION IF WE ARE ASKING SOMETHING THE PERSON SIMPLY DOESN’T WANT TO ANSWER. INSTEAD, WE GET AN ANSWER, BUT IT DOESN’T PROVIDE THE ANSWER WE ARE LOOKING FOR. BE PREPARED, ESPECIALLY WHEN EMOTIONS ARE INVOLVED, OR WHEN IN A RELATIONSHIP ASKING QUESTIONS YOU MAY NOT BE MENTALLY PREPARED TO GET THE HONEST ANSWER TO. SOMETIMES, IF WE ARE NOT READY EMOTIONALLY, IT IS SIMPLY BEST NOT TO ASK THE QUESTION UNTIL WE ARE READY TO HEAR THE ANSWER. CHANCES ARE, IF WE FEEL AFRAID TO ASK THE QUESTION, A PART OF US KNOWS THE ANSWER TO IT ALREADY.
THERE ARE TIMES IN LIFE WHEN A SITUATION ENDS, AND WE WANT AN ANSWER WHY IT ENDED. IT HURTS SO MUCH TO BE IN LOVE WITH SOMEONE, AND THEY SIMPLY DON’T FEEL THE SAME WAY. PERHAPS WE’VE BEEN FORCED IN A CORNER, AND MUST END A RELATIONSHIP. WE DON’T UNDERSTAND THE OTHER PARTIES BEHAVIOR, AND PERHAPS WE WON’T GET AN ANSWER EXPLAINING THAT BEHAVIOR. WE OFTEN WONDER, WHEN SOMEONE PASSES AWAY THAT IS YOUNG AND HEALTHY, WHY THEY DIED. THESE ARE THE QUESTIONS WE DON’T GET ANSWERS TO IN LIFE. ACCEPTANCE IS HARD, KNOWING WE CAN’T FIND THE ANSWER NO MATTER HOW MUCH WE HURT.
YOU MAY WONDER HOW I PICK A DAILY WISDOM WORD. I PICKED THE WORD ANSWERS TODAY BECAUSE I HAVE A QUESTION I WON’T RECEIVE AN ANSWER FOR, AND MIGHT NEVER GET ONE. I THOUGHT OF QUESTIONS THERE ARE NO ANSWERS FOR. PERHAPS ANSWERS, LIFE ALL THINGS IN LIFE, HAVE A TIME AND PLACE TO REVEAL THEMSELVES. THIS IS WHEN WE MUST ACCEPT THE UNKNOWN AND FIND PEACE, REGARDLESS.
THANKS SO MUCH FOR READING ABOUT ANSWERS TODAY. PERHAPS I’VE MADE YOU THINK ABOUT THEM AT THE VERY LEAST. HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY..SAMANTHA
