tommy thoughts…
To a friend
We all have things we want/wish we could control. It comes from love, but it isn’t about what we think we want, it’s about what we truly need. What most of us need to learn is patience. Patience is what WE need. Patience comes from faith, our faith. Why sometimes in life we don’t receive is simply because we are not learning our lesson…
Have faith, you’ll have patience.
I speak from experience. My father has never told me he was proud of me. I know he loves me, but he just doesn’t have the ability. This has caused a lot of tension. I know there will be areas he is just not going to change. So, I just have to accept & love him. It isn’t easy, but he’s my Dad. But, I bet there are times when he probably looks at me and just wishes I would do things differently, in ways he related to and understood so he would not feel fear and worry. That too comes from love.
